Anyone, who in their ignorance mocks it, isnt worth bothering about. | Nah, it was the bit about James Connolly being mentioned in the same breath as Nelson Mandela and Che Guevara.
Sorry, wasn't trying to argue, just thought you were making a joke.
Thanks anyway. |

Thanks anyway. | In an Irish context James Connolly is regarded as one of the greatest, if not the greatest, Irish Patriots. Bobby Sands is Irish. The modern Irish era is always compared to the era start of the 20th century. The men of 1981 are not regarded highly as the men of 1916 are, even though the men of 1981 are their equals.

OK. I don't get why Irish Nationalists get upset about Bobby Sands dying. He commited suicide. Well done. No-one shut his mouth for him.

We should totally all sign up for Scientology, then tell the high heid yins that the Orange Walkers called Scientology an evil cult.
All of them.
That would be awesome. | |
