I'm rather surprised and disappointed at your response Karen.

In my post addressed to you I clearly stated "I don't know your particular circumstance" that is I don't know how much or little you know of Irish history. There is no insult in there it is statement of fact. Your response is totally out of order.

Secondly with reference to "the way Irish history is taught in England in my experience is somewhat limited if not to say biased or even bigoted."

I clearly stated "in my experience" again your response is heavy handed to say the least.

And for the record I too am opposed "to car bombings, knee-capping, protection rackets, tarring and feathering, and sectarian violence"
