  • @camelterrorist i just know my nations history

  • @AshtrayanConvict im sure you are an achedemic and completely correct in that statement

  • @AshtrayanConvict thats funny..they were criminals...but sure we won that one..nuff said

  • @rw5791 i dont recal anybody being shot in dublin..you sir just got schooled..al the fighting happened in the north.

  • @thatdude6109 not true the irish that came as convict were stupid rapists and murderers who killed aborignals for fun and got flogged by their english masters for being lazy drunks.

  • @thatdude6109 of course,irish people fought in ww1.The real irish people from east belfast.Like goerge best,ok?

  • @AshtrayanConvict just putting in facts but australia was supposed to be first discovered between 40000 and 60000 B.C. however england did basically build your population with irish convicts (who were builders, farmers and other labourers) especially between 1800 and 1889 because of the lead up too and end of the famine.

  • @rw5791 irish people fought in ww1 alongside the brits and scots and welsh however in case you did not know this england wrongfully invaded and enslaved Ireland and they used a moment of weakness to their advantage and attempt to gain freedom for their people who were beaten, starved, robbed of their lands and titles and thanks to the penal laws their infrastructure was destroyed and worst of all their language is only spoken properly in small areas throughout the country.Nigger? wow racism.....
