"No wonder he is embarrassed."
I am embarrased because you are making a fool of youself publicly by insisting on something and consistently refusing to produce proof - I want no part in that (though you seem to be doing a pretty good job of it without my help).
Where are your examples of Protestants being abused in the Republic as Catholics were up north?
The abuse towards Catholics is well documented - the six county state was set up to deliberately eclude them, the anti- Catholic rioting, the baton charges of the Civil Rights marches - if you ay thios was equally done to the Protestants in the Republic WHERE AND WHEN - you must have some examples to back up your continual statements - arson attacks, stoning, driving out of Protestant families or refugees fleeing - where?
"......switched to discussing the Republic."
If you think wwe can discuss Bloody Sundaty without discussing its causes, you're even thicker than you I take you to be.
