People of Ireland (548)
blipper2000: youre completly wrong there whenever theres a poll roughly 80% say they dont want a united ireland

most people in the south think theyre all mad up there
the final nail in the coffin was when those kids were tryin to get to school and those scumbags were spittin on them,that put northern ireland in a very bad light

The people who you are refering too (the mad people) were Loyalist's from the Uppper Ardoyne. And they refused to let parents take their kids to school...
Google or youtube 'HOLY CROSS GIRLS'....
What more or less happened was someone put up a flag marking their 'turf'...And a fight broke out. It finished as stand off at Holy Cross Girls School.
As for your comment on not wanting a United Ireland. Why not?

Yeah but the 80% of whingers and moaners who say that, won't necessarily go and vote against it in a referendum. Personally I can't ever remember there being a poll like that so not quite sure where you are getting your figures from.
To achieve unity, you would probably need 2 votes. 1 in the 6 counties on the issue of unity and the other in the 26 counties to change our constitution to allow it (possibly articles 2 and 3 are broad enough to allow for it without a referendum, not sure)in the event of the latter, at most and this is being absolutely mindbogglingly generous to the no side, you would have 20% or 30% voting no.
Don't forget, no party would commit political suicide by opposing it, so about the only people you'd have campaigning against it would be the headtheballs in the reform movement.
woods: What do you need to have run past you? It's perfectly clear.
I know what he said...He's probably spent too much time listening to or read Conor Cruise or Ruth Dudley Edwards......

Phoenix: I'm from the North of Ireland and I want it. So do all of the people who grew up and or still living in my neighbour-hood. I reckon the majority of Derry, Fermanagh, Armagh, Tyrone and Parts of Down, North Antrim......Would like to see a united Ireland too.
Why don't you want a United Ireland? What have you got against Northern Irish ? Is it because the British control it, and therefore in your eye's I'm not Irish???
Why don't you want a United ireland?...Economics????

You keep saying that, it doesn't make it any more likely. The loyalists would have neither the military capability or the inclination to launch such a campaign.
Oh and they are not 'proddies'.

At anytime during the 'troubles' the Loyalist paramilitaries could have bombed Dublin, Cork, Galway.....They didn't. And the could have used the excuse about the Irish Gov. 'helping' members of the Republican Movement wanted in the North of Ireland by not extraditing them to faces charges under a Diplock court.
The biggest bombing (the one that killed the most people during the troubles)...Was in 1974..'Dublin and Monaghan bombings'........Allegedly carried out by Robert John "Robin" Jackson, with the help from MI5 (thats what John Weir said and he was a member of the RUC Special Patrol Group <---they were a murky bunch).
As for not wanting your kids growing up in a climate of fear....I grew up in Belfast during the troubles as did lots of the good folk who post here and I never lived in fear. I knew what bus to take, where to go etc...But I never once experienced fear........Seen a few riots, heard a few gun shots the odd time but never once during the troubles did I ever feel fear....I guess thats down to my parents. They never taught me fear.......

.........3 off the 9 counties that make up Ulster are in the Irish Repuublic.

i dont want my kids "hearin a few gunshots and seein a few riots"thank you very much
the fact is no more than 10% of people in the south in the last general election voted for a party that wants a united ireland,
its an outdated topic and goal
youve gotta admit it, people dont care anymore as much as we did in the 70s

its not that people dont care,,its because sinn fein/ira turned ulster into a no go area for most people for 30 years,,, and then the prize became to expensive,to many lives lost,,to much destruction,, the place was a mess,who'd want it???i dont want my kids "hearin a few gunshots and seein a few riots"thank you very much

you no it
What do you mean by saying "Who would want it"?..What the people who live in the North of Ireland are different??? I'm as Irish as the Irish President (we grew up in the same part of Belfast...)
She wants it..........
As for turning 6 counties into a 'No go area'..That was done with a pen....Google ' Irish Partition ' or something. I not going to teach you histroy.
What the Republican Movement in the North done was since partition was react to a situation that was forced upon them.
Not quite, they more than reacted to the discrimination. They tried to terrorise the protestants into a united Ireland against their will
Northern nationalists act like we in the South owe you something, we don't. A united Ireland would be a good thing overall but the IRA have postponed any chance of it happening for generations. The two communities have to learn to live together before there's any chance of a united Ireland, that has begun but there's a long way to go yet.
