Good God, I've been away for a while, in Ireland incidently and returning to the site I find this excuse for a thread. Mindblaster you apparently are in a quandry, how do you stand and shit straight(apologies to others for language). Go educate yourself. If it weren't for Irish and Scottish songs I'm sure your repertoire would be limited.

So you take personal offense with Irish rebel songs...tough that's part of the history of our country. You have a choice when you hear them, let your legs do the thinking.

And Leadfingers said, "Before the IRA Hi Jacked the Civil Rights movement and re vitalised The Troubles in 1969,"

I'd like to ask Leadfingers to explain the IRA's role in 1969 in relation to the "troubles" and while your at it maybe you could explain to everyone the British Army 1st Parashoot Regiment's effect on the civil rights movement (in particular), and the British Government's influence on what became known as the troubles after January 30th 1972 (in relation to the IRA) and what really started the troubles as we knew them.

I haven't had a chance to go right through this thread. I skimmed it really and I see that it seems to have opened the doors to new posters. Hopefully they can join in discussion without all the caps, having reviewed what they have written before they post. I welcome new posters with opposing views to those that I and others hold and I sincerely hope we can debate this and other issues with respect in future.

Dan Darragh, Thanks for your reply on here, but I hope you know that the people from FAIR are reading our posts on here even if they have not left any comments on here either. The FAIR people sometimes do to come here and leave a unfriendly message, but they won't be challenged by anyone, which means they don't reply to anyone that replies to their messages. I did feel at one time I would have liked to put your Website link on here for people to come and visit to you, but I would of asked first. I was a bit concerned that Loyalists or FAIR people would write hate messages on your Website, which I did not want to encourage as you do have a very nice Website and guestbook for people to visit. Kind Regards.

The Dan Darraghs are defending themselves on the Website FAIR, but their name is being used by the people behind FAIR to say things that are untrue about them. The Dan Darraghs are republicans, but they are not anti protestant like the Website FAIR that claims them to be. From my experience of asking questions to the Dan Darraghs about Irish issues is that the Dan Darraghs are respectful people, who does not abuse the public for asking simple questions whatever the side of the fence the public comes from or what country they come from either. They do listen and answer your questions without any hostility towards anyone. The Website FAIR should stop using Dan's name on their Website FAIR and leave them alone.

To the person that calls himself "Dave the gnome", Well said. I don't know why people like Guest seems always horrible to Divis when Divis is not hostile towards anyone? Yes, Divis supports the PIRA and republicans, but he is a reasonable person to talk with. Guest is not even a member, but he accusing Divis of writing all the posts himself. He just comes on here and tells us all to shut up and get lost. This is free speech on here so if Guest does not like what is reading on here then why don't he take himself off to another thread to more of his liking and leave us alone.

From: robomatic
Date: 19 Aug 06 - 03:34 PM

I know I've posted this before, but it's been a long time and this thread is perfect for it, even could lift it above the line:]

[Stan introduced this song on stage, "I don't care what your politics are; when our children are dying in the streets, it's time to put away the guns." He said he'd never write a political song, but he did and we thank him for it. It is fitting that it be the last on the album as it was the last one he wrote.]

THE HOUSE OF ORANGE
(Stan Rogers)
As recorded by Stan Rogers on "From Fresh Water" (1984)

I took back my hand and I showed him the door.
No dollar of mine would I part with this day
For fueling the engine of a bloody cruel war
In my forefathers' home far away,
Who fled the first Famine wearing all that they owned,
Were called 'Navigators', all ragged and torn,
And built the Grand Trunk here, and found a new home
Wherever their children were born.

Their sons have no politics. None can recall
Allegiance from long generations before.
O'this or O'that name just can't matter at all
Or be cause enough for to war;
And meanwhile my babies are safe in their home,
Unlike their pale cousins who cower and cry
While kneecappers nail their poor Dads to the floor
And teach them to hate and to die.

It's those cruel beggars who spurn the fair coin.
The peace for their kids they could take at their will.
Since the day old King Billy prevailed at the Boyne,
They've bombed and they've maimed and they've killed.
Now they cry out for money and wail at the door
But Home Rule or Republic, 'tis all of it shame;
And a curse for us here who want nothing of war.
We're kindred in nothing but name.

All rights and all wrongs have long since blown away,
For causes are ashes where children lie slain.
Yet the damned U.D.L. and the cruel I.R.A.
Will tomorrow go murdering again.
But no penny of mine will I add to the fray.
"Remember the Boyne!" they will cry out in vain,
For I've given my heart to the place I was born
And forgiven the whole House of Orange,
King Billy and the whole House of Orange.

It is still an awful lot more than I know about you, dear Guest. If you cannot see that is it really worth continuing this conversation. Join the 'cat. PM me your real name and address. Let me know who your wife and family are and what you like to do in your spare time. Then I may trust you as much as Divis. In other words, put up or shut up.

Cheers

theres an outside chance that dave isn't a gnome, and I don't play drums.

all the GUEST posts are made by Divis Sweeney. Get lost all of you.

If all the Guest posts are made by Divis who just made that one?

Anyhow...

Who is to get lost? All the Guests - In which case why are you here? All the Divis Sweeneys - I happen to know there is only one, or all the rest of us - In which case it will be just you and Divis. I am sure you may think that is cozy but I can assure you that Divis isn't at all like that...

Divis hi, before you say anything I have not had anything to do with the people on the Website FAIR, as you know that I have been blocked out of their Website for sometime now, which means I cannot say anything to them about things. Guest, billy sands from FAIR contacted me on the tread called something like "sorry, not another NI thread" and I warn you he is a nasty piece of work. I would say he is a very strong Loyalist supporter or a Loyalist himself like Colin from Pontzpass could be too.

Church admitted they have a big problem with ministers visiting porn sites on net. Group set up to help with addiction.

George Williamson said, "Christian Porn-Help" helps people discover the truth about themselves and pornography and "sexual" addictions. While sex is a wonderful, God-given gift, it can be abused like a drug for a variety of reasons. Today, many ministers find themselves captive to addictive cycles of viewing pornography and masturbation. We want ministers to come forward for help and this site could be helpful for them.

It was a light hearted post and "No offence meant " was regarding you Keith, which I expect you already know. I would never have to say sorry to Dave or make any kind of an apology to him. He understands my position and accepts mu viewpoint. He would be a good man in conflict resolution situations. Regarding you and I. We will never see eye to eye and I accept it.
