Actually, I have nothing against the English, , other than the way they treated the Irish for 700 years......

As to the flag, well, that is based on the St. Andrews Cross of Scotland. If you have read my earlier posts, you would know I have Scots-Irish relatives as well.

I was making an assumption that you were either English or perhaps Pro-English. My family has never had much love lost for England. Even my Scottish family were originally Jacobites :)

Let go of your petty hatreds. The Irish can, so why can't you? It's also pretty hypocritical for you to go on about invading other people's lands and treating them badly.

Have you never heard of the Native American (Native should be a clue to my point here) and the black slave?

That is not your, or present America's, fault any more than Ireland is my, or the present UK's fault.

Let's be honest here, if the Irish people realise this, maybe the non-Irish like you and me can too.

The Irish in the Republic don't vote for Sinn Fein/IRA for a reason you know:
