This is without a doubt the most eloquent response to a post that I have ever read here at Sigforum. Well done! | |||

Goddamn some of you tits need to go walk around the block. You can insert your opinion without being dicks to each other. Sound off like an asshole, fine. Just bring it back from royal dick-dom a bit please. “The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false-face for the urge to rule it.”—H.L. Mencken | |||

We are talking about the Brits and Irish. A group of has beens and a group of never was, with royalty on top to boot! Of course they'll be fooooking pricks to each other - it's been going on for 800 years!!! | |||

I'm 69% English and Wales and 26% Irish and Scotland and I get along just fine with myself. _____________________________ "The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living."

I'll assume for his benefit that he was talking of 1919. Because he surely knows that British troops first were deployed to Northern Ireland from outside in 1969 mostly to protect Catholics from Protestant violence, while the IRA which claimed this as their mission caught grief for being nowhere to be seen. | |||

No doubt the IRA is a terrorist organization, but to ignore centuries of abuse and terrorism from the English against the Irish is somewhat obtuse. Last time I was in Ireland was in the early 2000s and from what Im seeing its becoming much different, both culturally and politically.

Basically, you are of British ancestry. Note: Wales and Scotland are geographically defined places. Welsh is the term for people from Wales while Scottish is the general term for people from Scotland. It'll be shit soup served Sunday if the Troubles begin again. Hopefully, the Irish will help the British stamp that terror group into the boys bogs. Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government."

I was aware of that. I wasn't expecting to be ambushed on a short, one-sentence reply! _____________________________ "The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living."

Not forgetting that Dubhlinn was once a Viking city. It's just such a convenient and beautiful island, handy to reach. It would have been much better for the Irish if their land had been located in, say, the South Pacific....

My mother was born in Belfast, I hold dual citizenship. My Grandparents left Ireland in the late 60s due to the persecution and violence they were subject to by nature of my Grandmother being Protestant and a former British Army AA gunner during the blitz, and my Grandpa being Catholic. Some of the views and opinions expressed in this thread are fucking ridiculous and I'll just leave it at that. | |||

Regardless of what the group is, classifying an entire group, race, nationality, you choose, as being one way because of the actions of a percentage of that group is just showing your ass. One member in particular seems pretty fond of doing it in this thread. I have ancestry tracing back to all the races in the United Kingdom, as well as Spanish, French, German, more American Indian than Elizabeth Warren, as well as more I am probably unaware of. So even though my first and last names are most definitely of Irish origin, I am as American as they come. That said, I googled what the geographic midpoint between Virginia and Oklahoma was when I couldn’t sleep last night because at least one member deserves to have his ass kicked from hell to breakfast for his ignorance, lack of respect and failure of decorum with his fellow members. I think I’d choose swords. I could even bring an extra or three with me were he to need to borrow one. Alas, where the spirit is willing the body fails Not that it would matter, he wouldn’t show up anyway. Maybe we can put the internet billy badass shit aside and deal with each other with the respect we all deserve —————————————————— If the meek will inherit the earth, what will happen to us tigers? | |||

Forty-two hundred posts and more than a decade in this forum, and you post this idiotic crap? You're not fighting anyone and you know it, so why are you posting this impotent adolescent horse shit in my forum? Explain yourself. Tell me just how you rationalized posting this fucking idiotic crap in my forum. You typed out these words, proofread it and hit post anyway. Why? You know that no one is going to take you up on this, so why put this outlandishly moronic and juvenile shit in my forum? Go ahead. Explain this to me, badass. And to the rest of you, when I finish reading through this thread, I may have some pointed questions for some of you. | |||

Shut your Goddamned mouth while you still have the opportunity to do so in this forum. You don't have to act like a dick every day. Take a break now and then. Just what exactly is your problem? Did you not get enough of the tit as a child? | |||

If you want to be more technical the Scots are by and large descended from Gaelic invaders from Ireland who took out the Picts a long time before the British invaded them. "As Rome finally withdrew from Britain, Gaelic raiders called the Scoti began colonising Western Scotland and Wales" -Wikipedia So it went both ways in history if we're gonna keep old scores or whatnot. In truth he's probably got alot of Irish genetic history if he has Scottish and Welsh. | |||
