So the only Irishmen worth a toss are those that fought for Britian in the war the English started and the Americans ended.

Regarding this line, Irishmen flocking to England and the North in their tens of thousands to fight for Britain.

Check those figures again and re write it. I have the figures, seeing you are so sure of them I will allow you to list them.

Regarding the British army here in the North of Ireland during the troubles, they certainly left a lastly mark on me. Scars.

The bottom line is no matter how you wish to dress it up, Britain invaded Ireland and beat her people into the ground for eight hundred years. Are you defending that ????????????????????????

No you clearly attack those Irishmen that fought to protect and defend their homes and called us criminals for doing so.

Tell me what you would have done ????????????????????????
