My Great-Grandfather was full-blooded Irish, so that makes me about as Irish as an American can be.

Which means you are as Irish as me. In other words you are not.

I use the term "Orange" to describe Pro-English Irish.

So if you are pro-English you are "scum"? Disgusting comment.

I don't like people labeling the IRA as bloody terrorists...

Why not? They are bloody terrorists.

when in fact the Ulster Orange Groups were just as bloody.

To be specific, the Orange Paramilitaries where just as bloody. Yes, they are bloody terrorists who really ARE scum. Who said any different?

Separate the myths from reality.

"Which means you are as Irish as me. In other words you are not" In your opinion. I am an Irish-American in my own.

As for being Pro-English and Irish etc., I refer you to the history of Ireland, and how they treated the people of Ireland and YOU decide.

Call the IRA anything you wish, but if not for Michael Collins, DeValera, and the Irish Republican Army, there would be no Republic of Ireland.
