that would be like another 'Omagh' and the dissidents will bring their own world down on top of themselves and that will be the end of them (as long as the security forces/dept want them gone rather than keep them in existence and therefore their anual budget topped up).

Don't give him ideas LB

Ireland is not ready to be a untied land. In Dublin blacks and gays can walk hand in hand without nasty looks from the local people. Try that in Belfast, Newry or Omagh. There is a good chance that you would be called names or even beaten. The two peoples are poles apart. Not until the northern people accept that theres more to the world than Banbridge or Bangor then there's no chance.

I think it will kick off again but not so much now but 5-15 years down the line if things are nt sort out and running well for everyone but there will always be a willing for armed action towards the Brits its what the next generation believe thatwill decide it ,so if things go tits up it will be easier to recruit and the like but there will always be some form of armed resistance against the crown forces in Ireland like it or not

I attacked you once, because you complain a lot. For that I apologise, was having a bad day.

As for the above, that was just a bit of banter. Banter goes on in this board.

Well I just looked through your posts and think you're a moaning minnie as well so back off me or I'll report you to authoritites. If I want to moan, I'll maon.

ziggysego · January 25, 2010, 12:20:15 PM

Well like I've said, only the once and I've apologised. If you want to highlight other cases, I'd be happy to listen.

Other than that, I'll steer clear of you.

Probably the best decision ziggy, have you looked at his 45 posts or even some of them?

This is as close to war as were likely to get
