The latter does not prevent me from calling out the imperialism of America and its insidious foreign policy, which is absolutely driven by the government, but you already know that. 

Do you see the difference between that and the Troubles or do you still need more history lessons on the Northern conflict. I'm sorry if you got upset by me disagreeing with the policies of governments but it's not limited to America

I don't give a crap what they were dooing in the early 1900's.

I'm talking about the terrorist campaign The Troubles. the one that was carried out from the late 60's to the 90's. The one where every other day you would see the graphic footage of injured and dead civilians after the bombs where set off in Belfast.

I'm talking about The Troubles where the IRA would drag protestants out of their cars and execute them. I'm talking about The Troubles where the Irish Republic would allow the IRA to take refuge across their borders.

The Republic of Ireland. The country that will be forever be known for as the country that gave terrorist asylum and sat complacently by while the most extensive and extended terrorist campaign probably ever, outside of the middle east, took place in their name.

Give me a break with your self righteous bull [BLEEP].

The same troubles where thousands of Catholics were killed and made second class citizens in their own country? Where their vote didn't matter? 

I've already said I don't agree with the armed struggle for the north. Nothing you have said excludes me from critiquing other nations or my own awful government. 

Again, if you want to use your own logic (which is highly flawed), you aren't  allowed critique any other country in the world on something America did itself. Meaning, you aren't allowed critique Iran for things America has done in their past. 

You see how dumb that sounds? Your takes in here are as bad as your football ones. Which I thought would actually be hard to do
