Well said. Personally, I think the IRA and whoever the Ulster baddies are should just throw there weapons into the sea and let Manannan MacLir do his job. The've got freedom already--they shouldn't botch it up by trying too hard in the cause of freedom. I know the main problem is the Catholics in Northern Ireland don't like being under British rule. And the rebellion against that is whats causing the Protestants grief. My advice is--England, let it have it's freedom, with joint rule. Extremists must step down. Look, the Protestants are not going to reinstate The Penal Laws, and the Catholics aren't going to try to convert all the Protestants. If everyone could just get past those stereotypes, maybe we would see peace. "Star Trek" predicts peace WILL come in 2017. Let's all hope and pray that it comes true!
