The event was marked by the attendance of the Govan Protestant Boys Flute Band leading the parade, the laying of a wreath at the Dunkirk monument by veteran paratrooper who was present on the D-Day landings, and also the commemoration of a new banner for LOL 2123.

@WhichWayJustice Give me a list of those murdered by the OO & let me know the inquiries you write about & i will happily agree with you. If you cant , and i know you cant , then stop being so hateful to others who mean you no harm. All you are coming across as here is someone full of bigotted views . You ask when did you defend the IRA. Its more a case of why do you NOT condemn the IRA for murdering Catholics. But Say the O.O did.

The orange order was used to murder Americans in the war of independence and in 1798.

Really ignorant people join them.

[irishaware]

Orange order is a British loyalist order.

They are loyal to the sax coburg and gotha european crime family.

Nothing genuine Christian about the orange order, they invented myths about Irish history.

These were the traitors who murdered their own neighbors in 1798.

Fuck the Green Irish. IF they want to continue looking up to the head of the pedo church in Rome then so be it.

Long live our Orange brothers throughout the world and especially to our Orange Irish.

@conorlovesbooze

"Americans are being told in these days that they owe a debt of support to Irish Independence, because the Irish fought with us in our own struggle for independence. Yes, the Irish did, and we do owe a debt of support. But it was the Orange Irish who fought in our Revolution, and not the Green Irish." - Owen Wister (A Square Deal)

Did you know that King William the 3rds Coat of Arms is engraved on the Presidential Pew of Washington Cathedral?

God Bless the Grand Orange Lodge of America!

Great to see the Canadian Brethren continuing to uphold the traditions that made Canada great, Protestantism, civil & religious liberties! No Surrender!
