Socialist Irish are the lazy leftovers that didn’t have the nerve or the brains to come to America. They can all become muslims.

So any American can just go to Ireland, move in, and demand free services and then complain that it’s not more like America?

My 1/4 Irish is here to tell those in Ireland to drink your beer, boil your potatoes and STFU about anything that is not happening in Ireland. Stupid Micks.

Dubin is a dirty, ugly city with horrible traffic jams. The people there have rotten teeth just like the English. Stay out of there.
