How stupid do you have to be to ride a white horse *into battle*? just wear a sign saying "I'm the leader please kill me."
Its the glorious 12th July in Northern Ireland, this is our version of the 4th July to an Ulsterman but with more drinking and violence.
To show respect for any Fenian cocksuckers (Catholics) reading this I shall not gloat or even mention William of Orange and his triumphant over the evil King James II.
Nor shall I mention the battle, which took place in 1690, that is the most important landmark in the history of Northern Ireland, signifying the triumph of Protestantism over Roman Catholicism which in historic reality was only about power rather than religion but what stirs people to violence better than religion huh?
Every year there is always some kind of trouble with the Protestant Orange lodges marching through Catholic areas as they have done for 100 years before the hooses were built, they use words like 'Tradition' and say "It's difficult not to offend those who have a determination to be offended," and how its their right to march on the Queen's highway even though the Queen's law says to re-route the parades.
Some years things do go peacefully.......... ish, you'll always get 4 story bonfires and drunken fights and people using the time to settle grudges but that's Northern Ireland for you.
For all the years that Americans have supported the Catholic terrorists by sending them money and guns to kill my people I do find it ironic that they are in the same position in Iraq as the British in Ulster, wanted by some but not by others, religious factions killing whoever and the coalition seen as an invading oppressing force instead as a peace keeping army for freedom, I call Iraq Northern Ireland on Steroids.
Heres to that Dutch prick King William and may Iraq finally find relative peace after 30 odd years too.
*I'm sure it was all safe before he went near the battlefield*

There's hope even for your misguided soul ... buy a rosary. I can offer you some holy bones on discount.
Kaptain Orange? Weren't they of German descend and called after Orange in Southern France?
Anyway, happy whatever, hope they have nice brawls. Tonight I'll have some cold beer and think of Ireland. Shortly.
This post made me curious and I researched to learn more about "The Troubles" and Ulster/Northern Ireland relationship with Ireland. Thank you for spurring me to become more educated on these issues.
bunny - it's easy: Somewhere is a time lapse and on the other side are the middle ages. Oh yes, and Ireland too.
There was an Orange Lodge in my village where I grew up ... in Canada!
