"Why not give s your evidence that the Irish are all gullible and stupid and have all been misled over their history - I've asked you often enough.

Yes you have asked often enough Jim, but the thing is I cannot for the life of me understand is why, because I do not think that Keith A has ever claimed that "the Irish are all gullible and stupid". Those are your words that you have tried often enough to put into Keith A's mouth. As to be them having been misled over their history, not got a clue about that, all I know is that you are certainly doing your damnedest to do so.

"Or your evidence that all the destruction was done by rifle fire?

Again that is your rather weird take on things, but in a way it is true. Had there been no Volunteers firing rifles in Dublin that Easter in 1916 there would have been no destruction. If you cannot see that then you must be bone thick.

"Or maybe how Britain would never have introduced compulsory call-up (even though they tried)"

But the fact was they never did try to introduce it did they, thinking about it Jim doesn't count. Conscription was never introduced anywhere other than on the British mainland that is the Fact.

"Or that Home Rule was a done deal?"

I think that it has been explained to you and that you have been given the most impeccable sources in evidence to show clearly what you believe to be the case is impossible - Parliamentary procedures just simply do not allow your version of events.
