They're not a race.

You lefties love to throw the race card around a lot, don't you?

I for one don't. Bigot suits me just fine. Racism, as I always say is only part of bigotry. But bigotry can be directed against any given group, race or affiliation. Simply by downgrading them for belonging to - insert category there.

And that's what you are. I'm only cutting you some slack because by your own admission you're just a 17 year old. I wouldn't do the same for someone being older. Oh, and I might revise my statement of you not being an idiot, I made in another thread. But here's hoping that growing up will grow a brain also.

Well, kinda-sorta, they are (as much as the word 'race' has any real meaning).  Celts are genetically distinct from other settlers of the British Isles.

For what it's worth, Bella, I don't think you're a racist.  Hate-filled and spiteful, sure, but not a racist.

She's viciously prejudiced agains non whites and Irish people (especially when their nationalist). She cannot see what is wrong with admiring the likes of Enoch Powell or the orange order.

That is ample evidence of racism.

No, bigotry. Don't open the semantic escape route. They're not very good when it comes to social skills, but for some reason they always try to wiggle out on the semantic rope.

That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me.

Ignore all my posts in this thread.

I still firmly believe both groups (UVF and the UDA) started off as a protector for the Protestant community from Republican aggression though. But these days they're just drug dealers.

Bella, you're not stupid at all.
But all us oldies can guarantee you one thing.

When you age and look back at your 17 year old self, you'll be rolling your eyes like the rest of us are.

I cringe just thinking of the things I said and did when I was 25!
You're a teenager... Enjoy it...
