"Counterproductive" -- but of course, that is just what the people who made that attack were trying to be. In an ethnic pest zone, the problem is seldom a lack of decent, sensible people who want to live & let live. Usually, they are a large majority. The problem is that because of sentimentality the crazies hold them hostage. Often, one provocation is enough to make them start all over again. Is that still true in Northern Ireland? That Sinn Fein says it isn't is good to hear, but we'll see.
