have you noticed how when the old orange legacy is exposed the old oranges retreat? lately I have seen a number of items of old orange interest. when I was in...
"Oops - we already did that, and it doesn't seem to have helped." I was reading something lately that brought this post into mind. at a time when irish men and...
Are you referring to the law passed years ago that allowed Irish nationals to vote in English elections, as though they were UK citizens? As far as I remember...
I've noticed before that the most extreme people are often those furthest removed from the conflict. So it was that the most extreme orangenan I met was in...
yes, I am. were you familiar with it? what I referred to was not an example of a law used by the old oranges of NI to discriminate against NI catholics. it is...
this is a good example of 'limiting beliefs'. do you not think that places like belfast, derry, newry, strabane, omagh, dungannon, limavady, ballymena, are ALL...

it is simply remarkable that at a time when a catholic from the ROI could vote in england, scotland or wales, many catholics in NI could not. I suppose it's...
Sorry - still not getting it. HOW exactly were Catholics in NI being prevented from voting? And which catholics are we talking about? All of them? Was it...
you have a bigoted mentality that will likely prevent you from ever seeing the evil that was the culture you so fervently hope to preserve. only the biological...

if you and something more than a holiday-maker's view of the situation you wouldn't need to get answers from me. stop trying to pick a fight with me until you...
... So...you HAVE NO ANSWER to support your lies. Everything you spout from your bigoted gob is false....you cannot even provide a civil response. What...
I have no desire to debate what is a given in NI political circles. I've proved too many time that the old oranges are nick-named 'dynosaurs' for very good...
... Collins was assinated in an ambush near his home in Cty Cork....by cowards who hid in bushes and then ran away after the deed. The rest of the rubbish you...
so you think Mick Collins was the greatest irishman! very deep indeed. Collins invented guerilla warfare. it's what defeated the brits. one hell of a big...
Patrick, You really can't accuse people of "picking a fight" if they ask you for actual information about some of those charges you toss around so casually. ...
