Oh, I have. It's... a shit show.

At least not officially

@Ulstèr-Scotch Are you sure about that?

Again, only americans spurt shit like that out

Yes

Well it isn't officially

Not officially

as I said, it's the political branch of it

Sinn Fein, however

Is

I mean they support and fund terror groups

Sinn Fein is the same

Sinn Fein *is* the official political branch of the IRA

also, the Unionist groups were also big drug dealers

wtf I love Unionists now

lol

Apache are you from Ireland?

Unfortunately no

Are you American

?

But I'm only a few generations removed from it

Yes

Of course

Irish-Canadian American

IRA is just a meme don't condescend

So you;re an outsider looking in. I have lived my entire life living in Northern Ireland

I have experienced hooligans and terrorists from both sides

You know nothing

I do think Sinn Fein is basically an opportunist party though

they're more concerned with Irish nationalism than with left-wing causes

No, that is wrong

Again, you know nothing

though I also think Ireland should be one country

I've heard Irishmen say that unification would be bad cuz the North is super poor

honestly Ireland is just a tax haven

Unification is bad

The south can't afford Northern Ireland

that's the majority of the Republic's economy

It was more industrious before they switched to the euro I think, I can't quite remember when the 'Celtic Tiger' started shrinking

Started after they joined the EU though

I know that
