This is the way it REALLY is in the North of Ireland:
the people just want peace. Its the organized criminal terrorists on both "sides" that are trying to keep things hot. Normal, average, everyday people just want peace.
And what does this have to do with America ? Everything! It is the Irish-Americans sending $$$ back to the auld country who are keeping this thing alive. Truly, for God's sake and for the sake of the human beings in Ireland, DON'T SEND MONEY TO TERRORISTS ON EITHER "SIDE"!!! THEY ARE JUST THUGS! SIDE WITH PEACE AND WITH THE PEOPLE! And making this statement is how this Irish-American will celebrate Irish-American Heritage Month and St. Patrick's.
