Thanks Dave.
I should have said my fourth post, first day. Sorry.

"Home rule had already been agreed.
It was not brought forward by one day.
The killing was all for nothing. There could have been a peaceful transition and no civil war.
The fools, the fools."

I have never denied that my views on history are informed by reading history.
That is what normal, intelligent people do.
(But not you apparently!)

They are still my views.
Where do you get your views on historical events Dave?
Are they just whims?

Steve, I can not remember you expressing a view on the rising.
Will you remind us?
Was it just one post out of all your others not about the rising at all, but just stirring up off-topic arguments with anyone who disagrees with your fellow lefties.

That still makes you a troll, and you are still trying to restart an off-topic argument.
Please stop.
