My last word on the matter. You can't oppose intimidation with counter intimidation. I have no problem with marches and parades as long as they are not designed to be intimidatory. Causing hassle to an individual such as Conrad would be wrong. Debate and discussion is the answer!!!!

I must agree with Barry and Keven, and not just because in reverce it becomes, Keven Barry... Giving Conrad grief is only going to increase his paranoia, the root of the Orange lad's usrrender of their humanity. As I believe I have told people here in the past, early in the seace fire, I was at WBAI passifica Raidio's studio in NYC, waiting to be interviewed about Roma (gypsies). By chance there was a spokesperson for the Orange Lodges in the studio, there to debate over the phone and be interviewed. The poor man looked absoultly misserable, as everyone in the studio was ignoring him, and he knew from the posters on the wall, he was not in a sympathetic place. In the interest of the sease fire and peace talks, I brought the fellow a cup of tea, and commented that we had arrainged the rain that morning, to make him feal at home. We had a great wee talk, and I made it clear I was a life long republican and a friend of Burnadette Devlin McAlisky. He said things to me that I did not agree with, and I felt showed, at least an unconcious prejudice and I am sure I said things that made him uncomfortable. However, the polite exchange of ideas made it possible to shake hands and share some tea. Insulting each other, snearing etc (or sending threating or distructive attachments on email) would have done nothing for progress in Ireland. So to those who say this should not be talked about, I can only ask how can you have progress through silence, and for those who say spam Conrad, I say, how can you have progress through harassment. Let's keep it intelligent folks, and Conrad, in responce, why don't you stop the sloganisms and really think if you wish to support Protestant domination. Is it really a Christian thing to do? Last I looked, Protestantism was a Christian religion, eh? Remember, it is not do unto others what they do, but what you would HAVE them do unto you.
Be nice folks
Larry

Yet Again someone sticks their head above the parapet to prove an age old adage "Born green, Turn yellow and hang around in bunches" or the definition of an Ulster Loyalist "One who is Loyal to the crown and even more loyal to the half crown"
