“Then why did you mention the Famine?”

I did so because it was appropriate to do so. I did not do it in the way you claimed.

“ I don't like that tradegy been used as a political football.”

Again, you’re whinning. Why are you always whinning like a hurt little girl? Don’t like the famine used as a political football? Then don’t ever talk about Irish politics.

“Let's hope what continues?”

Are you struggling with the plain written word? I wrote: “The violence seems largely over on their side, however. Let's hope that continues.” The IRA is not nearly as violent as it once was. Let’s hope that continues. Is that so hard to understand? Would you rather have more violence?

The Famine was over 150 years ago, and I will talk about the politics of my own country when I damn well feel like it.
