    So whats up with St Patricks flag, last st. Patricks day I saw a few scummers standing across the road from a protestant church throwing cans at it saying its a disgrace they are flying St. Patricks flag on Paddys day :confused:.

    Is it a offensive flag to Republicans or dare I type to the whole of Ireland or is its just some stupid twisted idea that scumbags and republicans have???

    They were scumbags, thats it. If they had seen a mirror, they would have started throwing cans at it too. No deeper thought than that.

    If you aren't a Catholic or you aren't a republican, you can't be Irish. Seems to be a mentality growing by the day in the republican movement.

    Everyone in the south is a Republican by virtue of being born in a Republic. I'm an atheist. Where do I fit into your grand scheme of cliche shítehawkery?

    Not true. Everyone in the republic is not a republican. The republican movement has hi jacked an event to suit its own needs. I think the OP said it best with regards to this disgraceful attack.

    in that case
    Is everyone born in the United Kingdom a monarchist ?
    Is everyone who was born in the USSR (when it was the USSR) a communist ?
    Is everyone who was born in Iran a Muslim ?
    Is everyone who was born in Germany between 1933 and 45 (or Austria 1938-45) a Nazi ?

    Oh here we go.

    One thing I dont get about you Keith is you so deliberately hate Ireland so much and are so pro Britain etc.

    Why the heck are you on this site then?

    Bit of a hypocrite you are, no surprise though because you spout so much ****e.
