"By the way.
Those who argue about what the majority of the people want or don't want are invariably those who don't give a toss what ordinary people want until it becomes a handy alternative to arguing on facts - as is the case here." - Jim Carroll

You mean people who make statements like this?

"Sigh - they totally supported the Rising in 1916 as soon as Britain revealed what an appalling load of shit they were and that there was no hope whatever of obtaining Independence in any other way - repeating this piece of misinformation just confirms your dishonesty
Irish people always wanted Independence from Britain - Britain's "traitorous" behavior was n indication that even the limited aims of 'Home Rule would never be honoured so within months the call went out for full Independence - **** the Free State." - Jim Carroll

So Jim how long have you been the spokesperson for the Irish Nation?
