Greed, Racism, Religion, Ignorance,Hate. Self-importance. Lies. If people were more constuctive around here, we may be able to hear what this guy has to say,,,

As the man said some time ago,,if you are not willing to slove the problem, then you are part of the problem....here a question for you lot,,,If a Turkey knew what was going to happen at Christmass,,,,,would he vote for it?....then why do you Turkey's keep voting in these people into power?...

Stop bitching and be an Activist .....

Ok ..angels77100..You are trying to get a little fame from slagging off people. so you can get hits on your site.....Trouble is people may just start thinking all Americans are the same as you.....and have the same views as you.... Actualy you come across as a JOKE.....I pity you...

No, its because the Irish are Catholics e.g. Vatican. May Red Crow rest in peace.

common struggles what about the irish catholics who joined in the massacres of native indians..... the 7th cavalry used to march to garry owen a famous irish tune ...there were hundreds of irish catholics in the regiment.....and then millions of irish catholics dont have a problem living on stolen land that was taken from the native indians.....irish catholics bending the truth again....to fit with thier warped view of irish catholic history

@nywarlord87 Most Brits know very little about NI and were somewhat shocked/angry when fellow citizens started blowing them up. The IRA raised awareness for their cause but the way they did it entrenched positions.

I believe the big challenge for us all now is to unite to tackle inequality and injustice. When you look at the top 1% campaign in the USA and in the UK it is the top 5%. While we bicker about small differences we are letting fat cats off the hook. United we stand - divided we fall

Excerpt from The Rhythm of Time by Bobby Sands "There’s an inner thing in every man, Do you know this thing my friend? It has withstood the blows of a million years,And will do so to the end . . . . . It died in blood on Buffalo Plains,And starved by moons of rain,Its heart was buried in Wounded Knee, But it will come to rise again. "

@charmaine725 Yea I feel for the peaceful people on both sides because they are somtimes dragged into the problems. But I wasn't talking about the IRA of today. And I know even back in the day they did some bad things. But in the 60s, 70s, and 1980s they did do some good at times when the irish citizens needed protection during the troubles. And also The hunger strikes were felt world wide and let people from around the world see what was going on in NI.

@nywarlord87 No - The hell my father went through and what he witnessed during WWII at the hands of Nazis has made me deplore prejeudice. It has led to the justification of so much evil across the world including inequality and social injustice. The Troubles in NI are/were very complex. Pity those peaceful people stuck in the middle. Not the terrorists - on either side.

@charmaine725 The IRA were freedom fighters and let me guess your probably a loyalist

If you would actually listen to what the man say's then you would understand the common struggle.
