There would all your thoughts be if some ex-miners who were harshley treated decided to go to 'war' for an independant state of Yorkshire?
Commuinties decimated, no work, invation of status driven & wealthy people, suicides... general dispair.
All done in the name of the British government.
I'm not overly chuffed about certain things done in the uk's name, but I'm not going to start hanging my head in shame.
If you don't defend the rights of those who LAWFULLY go about their business, if that means banging a drum on a certain day to celibrate whatever, so be it.
You may a well get a plane ticket to North Korea. |
Celebrate. Despair. Invitation. Harshly. Independent. Communities. AS. All spelled wrong. And thats just in one small paragraph. Hope you're not doing an A-level paper any time soon 
Who said anything about any hanging of heads in shame? Recognising historical blunders means nothing without learning from them. Why would the miners want an independent state of Yorkshire? That argument is nonsensical - The mining dispute was never about land taken away or religion, the two factors common to major land disputes.

So the argument has nothing to do with 'how people are treated', it's all to do with land?
I would suggest you argue about 'human rights' with one side, then deny that the human right to work, have a thriving commuinity & dignity with the other.
On that thought, shame on my grandfather for standing up to Hitlers ideals, is it? Oh no, he didn't have land grab on his mind, just enforcing his Nazi ideas on the majority.
Not forgetting, whilst many soldiers from Ulster gave their lives, to protect yours today, from the Somme onwards.
The IRA were busy making bombs.
Yes, we haven't learnt from our mistakes.. the shoot to kill policy was working & should have continued.

The twelfth of July.
A similar sort of carnival to that enjoyed by the good ol' boys of the Ku Klux Klan.
