"Come Out, Ye Black and Tans" is an Irish rebel song written by Dominic Behan.
Come out, ye Black and Tans;
Come out and fight me like a man;
Show your wife how you won medals out in Flanders
Tell her how the I.R.A. made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes in Killeshandra.
More like Catholics and Protestants get drunk at Churchill's and sang along with The LeperKhanz (some probably no clue what the lyrics meant but having a good time anyway).
Funny part of this is that there is a significant Dutch population in Riverside & Orange county. And Churchill was some what of an English pub. But who gives a damn? Certainly not the Latinas or the Italians in the crowd. :p
@moredeepster [Correction-I goofed] I got mixed up on the sequence of events. Chronologically, James fled to France and was escorted to Ireland for staging a comeback. In all, William let James escape twice. Twice!!! William was not threaten at all by his uncle whose daughter he married (sigh...). And the Catholic Irish or the Jacobites? Give me a break. They joined forces with James only because they knew It was going to be another Cromwell BS.

@moredeepster [Correction-I goofed] "no such battle would take place if James "REMAINED IN" France." Which in fact happened. James after Boyne defeat, fled one last time and remained in France until he die. William and Louis kissed and made up in 1697. It was all a very sick family fued with BS religious rivalry. Ireland didn't have a standing army or navy. I don't know what history textbook you're quoting from, but you're pretty good at rewriting it like our tea party folks.

@moredeepster FFS you no nothing of history. James went to Ireland, recruited and IRISH ARMY of volunteers to invade England and restore Catholic control. Your excuse for not being a hypocrite is that you visit their casinos? Bigoted trash.

@redcoatrifle Part II response to "Also please care to explain to me why... in the first place."
We waged war against the natives, pure and simple, with minor pretense. No throne, no Vatican threat, simply for control of land. We didn't stop until they were almost completely wiped out. Today, we know it's a regrettable part of history. We have been trying to be politically correct. Historical accuracy have gradually improved. We visit their casinos like a Sunday church.

@redcoatrifle Since you asked, "Also please care to explain to me why... in the first place." So as a courtesy, I should try my best to respond but in several parts. Part I: Forget about the business about acceptance or outrage which have been typical by those of us not living in Ireland. There are similarities... The wisdom is in knowing what good came out of the conflicts. For us, in 200 years, we waged war against the natives in many ways. They fought as warriors/defeated repeatedly.

@redcoatrifle As far as your repeated comparison about America's past about Vietnam and Native Americans, I won't defend against them. Yes, we were genocidal colonialists and imperialistic capitalists. It's merely our poor upbringings - the new evangelical movement will improve that. I am not outraged. I just don't understand why it took so long for you to see that we are the same - crooks. Wanna know how to make IRA happy like we did with Indians? Let them build casinos. :)

@redcoatrifle Isn't that curious, that Irishmen fought for Britain, not just the Loyalist, which says to me that Irishmen had bigger heart and sacrificed their differences in faith for the better good of both. And in return, they get a beat down. It's obvious to me that the Catholics of Ireland were not those of James and definitely not the same as the Vatican. The point is, what happened was long time ago, time was different. Kings and Churches did stupid things. Parade something else.

@redcoatrifle So in truth, Boyne in 1690 was historically a slaughter not a battle. It was a multinational event disguised disgracefully as the fight for the throne and against Catholic threat. Put it this way, no such battle would take place if James fled to Spain or France. The Irish people of that time might entertain James but there are no good reason why the Irish would have the resource or the greed to invade (The Scotts might). No, Williamites' cause was bogus.

@redcoatrifle "WTF James was going to invade the rest of the UK and restore Catholic rule." Such a remark is why I said you guys are so insecured and needlessly oppressive on people of Ireland. There were no serious threat from Ireland-Cromwell crushed them with hardly any effort. They didn't have anything like Spanish Armada. James was deposed and fled because he couldn't get any serious backing. That's obvious! James fled to Ireland simply for the nearest escape.

@moredeepster WTF James was going to invade the rest of the UK and restore Catholic rule. Is that not a justified reason. Also North Vietnam was the winner you lost 40,000 men for nothing, billions of dollars, respect, authority, and an increased in the hippie type movements which led to things such as the Kent shootings ect.
Hope your proud to live in a country that required 15,000 soldiers to allow one black pupil in to the University of Mississipi.
F.G.A.P.U
