Folks, for the record. I am probably one of the few posters here actually living in Ireland. I am anti-violence and voted for the PEace Agreement.

Conrad's original post was a direct copy/paste from the web site of the Portadown District, Loyal Orange Lodge Number One. This specific group are very anti-peace agreement and have close links with loyalist paramilitaries. They are anti-peace agreement without ever offering an alternative.

Conrad is just as misguided as those who support republican violence in IReland. 95% of people in Ireland and 75% of people in Northern Ireland voted for peace. We want a new future not an annual rehash of a painful history. The likes of Conrad who enjoys stoking up outdated religous bigotry must be challenged.
