    Oh, but there is. Walk through Blanch, Clondalkin, Lucan or Tallaght. All very racially mixed working class areas. Then walk through a few housing estates in upper class South Dublin. Not a non white to be seen. And the residents there tend to profess their love for all things multicultural.

    But lets not talk about that.....

    2 words: Affordable Housing

    Anyway I live in a middle class south Dublin estate, in the vicinity of my road, there are Lithuanians, Senegalese and Libyans.

    If any of my sisters brought home a northern prod, she would be cut off permanently.

    I am not a forgiving man.

    I'm glad I'm not your sister.
    Potentially cutting off a family member over the religion of who they fell in love with? You need to come round to yourself mister.

    Wow. Out of what, 100 houses? On my estate there are three other Irish households. Out of 164 houses. I paid over 250 large for my gaff. Not much affordable about that, bud. I loved paying that off whilst my non EU citizen neighbours got given theirs for nada.

    They are free to mix with who they want. They also know that they will be permanently cut off if they go out with a northern protestant or a non european. My family are blessed with excellent genes. We need to keep them that way.

    My attitude is bigoted, yes. But due to life experience.

    Truth be told, he/she does sound the kind of person you'd mind being cut off from... That post sounded more like a promise than a threat.

    Well, she did say "genes", not brains.

    Fair enough, your opinion. Anyway, my sisters are good looking girls. No need for me to worry. They won't settle for second best. At present they are all dating or in a relationship with sound european lads. All is well.

    I trust they are solid Catholic southern Europeans with good genes and hint of the tar-brush, not those useless feckless northern protestant Europeans from one of those cowboy countries like the Netherlands, Germany or Sweden.

    Clarify this please.

    What do you mean by a non-European? I've an awful feeling you're alluding to ethnicity but perhaps I'm mistaken.

    Wow! Shocked doesn't even begin......:eek:

    No I understand how Fergus from The Crying Game must have felt.

    Not being American I'm never quite sure what that means - does it mean swallowing the glue?

    Ive no quarrel with protestants. My issue is solely with Northern prods. Not one fuck would I give if they brought back a Germanic prod to my gaff. Id welcome him, break bread with him and offer him a brew.

    What about a Church of Ireland person from - say - Cork? Or a Trinitarian from Dublin? Is it the Methodists you really have a problem with, or all reformed churches?

    Looking at your location you'd probably go mad if she brought back a man from Meath!

    What part of Northern protestants do you fail to understand? Its not the religion I have a problem with. Its the people.

    I would probably break out into a rash. We owe them cunts one for 2010. Soon. Leinster final. Time for redemption.

    I can see Berno running amok. Hes due a big game. I hope the young lad, Kilkenny, is unleashed on them whores.

    I've met a few. Even lived with one. They seemed nice.

    Lived with a Catholic guy from Omagh too. He was one of the biggest idiots I ever met.

    Are you saying the northern protestant has bad genes.
