What has the unionists in an uproar is that they for the most part ignored McGuinnes's IRA past while he was deputy First Minister. That worked out fairly well for everyone, significant progress was achieved.
Apparently they were thinking something a little less provacative, statesman, peace maker, loyal subject of her majesty the queen (ok, that's a bit of a stretch)
Instead they got IRA volunteer.
