Need arguments against the Provisional Irish Republican Army

Yes it makes my family genealogy a pain. There are Irish McBrides that are in the North West, but Scottish McBrides were transplanted into the neighboring counties. Many of the Scots were forced there to help in the Englishising of Ireland. But due to the hatred the Irish had for them concerning the stolen land, many of the Scots would immigrate to the Appalachians to escape the British and the Irish.

Supposedly that is were the history of moonshine starts. The Scottish immigrates were trying to reproduce Scotch whiskey, but the local ingredients made for a different taste.

I am the first generation of Irish children to grow up without the shadow of republican terrorism over us. I regard the IRA as nothing more than a group of murdering thugs who hijacked Irish history for their own selfish ends. They were not concerned about the Civil Rights of Jean McConvill, a widowed mother of ten who was ‘tried and convicted’ by a so-called IRA court. They murdered her and hid her body so her family were even robbed of the dignity of a funeral. Gerry Adams would be, in my opinion, no better than Osama Bin Laden. He is the leader of an organisation that propagated murder and terror and my generation will NEVER forgive his band of brothers for what they did to us.

So you would rather get shot by the British and protestants for sport than engage in the collateral damage of independence. Good thing we did have the likes of you around in 1919, or 1776.
