Subject: RE: BS: The Irish Peace Process
Contentious parades should not be allowed to pass through areas that could cause offence or public disorder. Parades or gatherings celebrating the culture or tradition of either community should be confined to their own respective areas, sad it should be that way, but that is the reality of it. No one wants areas designated as catholic or protestant, unionist or republican, but the fact is, they exist.

There is no doubt that a number of people within the nationalist/republican community in Northern Ireland would like to see unity of Ireland. There is also no doubt that those living in the south of Ireland are abhorrent to the very thought of it. Throughout the troubles the southern Irish made no effort to hide their displeasure of "the black north" as they called it.

Queen coming to Dublin, articles 2 and 3 dropped by the Irish government, rugby and soccer played in Croke Park, there is your answer. Southern Irish NEVER wanted to inherit the north, I would love to see evidence stating otherwise.
