    So? That just proves the micks are liars. I can find you some Jews who say they don't want to steal your wallet, but that doesn't prove anything either.

    Perhaps this is why
    The Williamites' victory in this war ensured British and Protestant supremacy in Ireland for over 100 years. […] In the 1690s, Scottish Presbyterians became a majority in Ulster, tens of thousands of them having emigrated there to escape a famine in Scotland.
    […]
    The Plantation of Ulster, run by the government, settled only the counties confiscated from those Irish families that had taken part in the Nine Years War. The Crown dispossessed thousands of the native Irish, who were forced to move to poorer land. Counties Donegal, Tyrone, Armagh, Cavan, Londonderry and Fermanagh […] though not officially planted, had suffered de-populatation during the war and proved attractive to settlers from nearby Scotland. This unofficial settlement continued well into the 18th century, interrupted only by the Catholic uprising of 1641.

    That's what we've been trying to tell you; they're both ugly and drunk.

    See, that's typically what racists say. "I know this nigra that hasn't stolen a pie yet." Thereby ignoring the jiggaboo deathstyle choice.



    So the peeps "oop North" aren't Irish? What are they then: Eskimos?
    It depends on who you talk to. This is some what of a generalisation. Unionists, or Loyalists, would tell you they are British, not Irish while Republicans would say they were Irish.

    Anyway I thought the thread was about the Irish and St. Patrick's Day. That would mainly be Eire. They haven't been blowing each other up.

    In my travels so far I have found all three to be quite common.
    That's no surprise. If you tried talking to me, I'd either get blind drunk or call the cops as well.

    "You people"? Friend, no-one here was talking about the nigs. And besides, your comment seemed very rude and inconsiderate. Plenty of those people are very funny. What about Amos'n'Andy?

    What, in your enlightened opinion, would Jesus do, then? Complain about how Baptists and negroes don't entertain Him enough? I don't think so.

    Well, I'd rather see you in jail than running around blowing up pubs left, right and centre. Have you ever been to Guildford?

    I have to go and do some work now, but feel free to heap on some mean spirited nonsense. I deal with it when I get back.
    Yes dear, you clear off and do some cooking and cleaning and other female duties.
    Make sure you get the permission of your husband before you come back. Or are there no men in your household (except the trouser wearing Bulldyke who pretends to be one).

    You are obviously here merely to persecute the tender warm and Loving Sister Thumper who only has people's best interests at heart.
    A bit like myself but maybe not so caring.

    The Irish people I have met have not been blowing each other up. Please note the emphasis. My previous observations were also related to people I have met.

    Not everyone in Northern Ireland was actually involved in the terrorist activities. Note the was in that sentence. There's been a ceasefire and decommissioning of weapons. The parliament is back in action. There's a power sharing agreement.

    Anyway I thought the thread was about the Irish and St. Patrick's Day. That would mainly be Eire. They haven't been blowing each other up.

    So, back to the point - your warning about the Irish... you were about to say,...?
    I don't have a warning about the Irish, I was reading the thread. BibleThumpinBlonde's inability to provide anything approaching relevant evidence for her silly little assertion, which lets' face it was based on an stereotype as interpreted by an airhead, gave me cause to join in.

    The Irish that I have met are great people. Not very religious though. Unless there's a religion based on being a good and decent person, being educated and thoughtful as well as have a personality and a sense of fun.

    I have come to the conclusion that this has to be a joke.

    Either than of the world is a lot worse off than I thought. If this is real it's a place where some ill educated, narrow minded bigots spew hatred and bile in to the world from their own sad little corner of nowhere. I can only assume that it comes from an intense dissatisfaction with their petty lives and a desire to make other people as miserable as they are. Pathetic.

    Personally my friends, who have been reading along, and I are hoping for the former 'cause it has need quite entertaining. Some of the threads are hysterical. And we would very much like to continue to be entertained.

It's easy to love a normal child, but very hard to love a handicapped child, and it's much more work to raise a handicapped child than a normal child. I think that God gives them to people who need to learn compassion. That you would accuse a perfect being such as our Lord of having flaws, is blasphemy dear sister.
    Are you also trying to derail this thread? This is about the insufferable drunken Irish and their cathlicking St. Patrick's Day (which thankfully is behind us by almost three months). Are you trying to assert that the Irish are God's gift to us and that we are to thank Him for bringing some kind of "test" to us?
