They worked their campaigns in NI and the UK, and were not supported by the people of the Republic. They're also gone. And, I have no idea what you think this has to do with me apparently being a nationalist. It's not like I supported the IRA. My aunt's uncle was in the original IRA, but that was a whole different time.

You are, of course, just trolling me, but it's working, cos **** you.

You said the Irish weren't nationalistic. I'd say the Great Western Terrorist Movement of the 21st Century would prove that to be false enough to an extent that it's clearly absurd to say that there is no nationalistic strain in you cantankerous bar brawlers. The rest of you just had the benefit of not feeling the need to fight for anything, so you could just sit in your plaid green comfy chairs and smoke your pipes with your dicks in your hands.

Aren't. There's a big difference. Everyone in Ireland just wants to get on with their lives, and **** the government. And yes, before you ask, I have interviewed every single inhabitant of this island, and they all said the same thing: "Tell The Batlord to **** off." So, on behalf of every single Irish person, **** off.

Lulz whatever, dude. I'm sure plenty of Americans thought nationalism was dead after Vietnam, but here we are in the land of Trump and country music stars playing American flag guitars. You've just rolled over and turned your ass to the world but you're smelling the grass too so it's okay I guess?

And Ireland doesn't even have five million people, so I guess America's more Irish than those Paddies ever were.

I’ve never met an American who claimed to be Irish that wasn’t just a regular mixbreed.

Those are some fast reflexes! And some major grade brakes too!

That's not news, trucks don't hit kids every day.
