If it is a she, I would suggest that she not try so hard. People tend to like the real person. And if a she, why not post as a she and post a picture? My poor head is spinning.
Thanks for defending your position. That is all I ever ask, of anyone. | |

Posted: 6/28/2009 2:24:55 PM | | Not all of us carry guns in America. Like the rest of the world, there are always those bad apples in every town, village, country. Should it matter if your Catholic or Protestant, Irish or American, aren't we all the same inside? Maybe not. | |

Truest thing ever said.
Unfortunately, many don't believe it, as should be obvious from this thread. | |

Posted: 7/31/2009 7:33:33 AM | I've just come back from Northern Ireland and will be visiting again in three weeks time.
It didn't change my views on the constitutional question (pro-Union) but it moderated my views somewhat. No matter what nationalists might wish, unionists aren't just going to go away. It's now up to unionists to show that Catholics are welcome in Northern Ireland. Making them feel welcome at their parades and disbanding the paramilitaries would be a start. Unfortunately there isn't the political will for that over there. The problems that NI has are not that dissimilar to other parts of the UK, they just come in different packaging. | |

Posted: 7/31/2009 12:48:41 PM | | This issue should not exist anymore. The whole divide of this country has done nothing but hold us all back and painted the image of blood thirsty savages in Ireland and/or Northern Ireland. I'm an atheist myself and have many Catholic and Protestant friends as well as Spiritualists, Wiccans etc. and i would never hold their religious preference or beliefs against them. We should all be free to go where ever we like in this country without the fear of being attacked just because of what kind of church you attend or which area you are from. I have been to so many countries where they hear my accent and the first thing they ask me is 'how bad it is in Ireland'. Even had this in parts of England and Wales too. I don't think we should forget our past, but we all have to move on from this bigotry, there is absolutely no need for it anymore. | |

In Ireland's history, the people of the north (Ulster, and yes, not all of Ulster is in N. Ireland) have always been "at odds" with people of the south (i.e. the rest of Ireland in the other three provinces). One of the oldest stories, "The Cattle Raid of Cooley" involves (how can it be simplified?! ),... involves a major cattle raid instigated by Queen Maebh with the "friendly thighs" against the King of Ulster. She wanted his bull (just the bull -- no by products). Anyway, there are many stories within the "Cattle Raid of Cooley", and it shows that the Ulster Irish and the other Irish have since before written history been "at odds" with each other. If it's not for one reason, it'll be for another reason.
The "battle" is more like native vs not-so-native Irish. Native Irish are popularly considered to be Roman Catholic, whereas the new interlopers (the Vikings, Anglo-Normans, Scottish and English) are non-native and/or "Protestant". The boundaries aren't as clear as people would like them to be.
I'm sorry "Ulster Born" but I have to call you on this post; it is a complete misrepresentation of the historical background to the Troubles. | |

Posted: 8/5/2009 4:16:29 AM | I can't decide if I'm flattered or scared that you are so dying to meet me but unfortunately my time is precious and cannot be wasted on one who first appeared with a bulbous nose, then a bulbous 'ahem' lunchbox and now just plain bulbous. As I said to one of your 'friends' recently, had I been a man, I wouldn't ride you into battle. That might indicate to you that our coffee date is not to be.
Ask Cartoonloon, he lives near me and you like him, you could get the essense of one who lives on the northside of Dublin without the agro of wondering who the burly lady is with the rangers shirt on. I could ask Liam Cunningham to join you perhaps, he lives near and I know his wife Colette. | |
