One of the first things I did was post links to Irish anti-EU websites on my page...

LOL

I'm curious. Are there a lot of pro-British Catholics such as yourself in Ireland? I ask because it has been my experience that the stereotypical Irishman is either an anti-British Catholic or pro-British Protestant.

Fully 1/3rd of the 3000-officer strong Royal Ulster Constabulary positions were reserved for Catholics. And, according to wiki "The first two thousand places were filled quickly. Due to a slow recruitment rate from Catholics, the force resorted to normal recruitment in order to fill the remaining vacancies. (A Catholic in The RUC was by definition, "abnormal"?_HD) As a result, representation of Catholics in the RUC never exceeded 20% and, by the 1960s, it had a Catholic representation of 12%." '

So, it appears that you're correct that "pro Brit Catholics" probably don't cause any traffic jams, but there were enough to demonstrate an exception to the rule. And, one can only wonder about that 12% number after Black Sunday, though.

I imagine that wearing the badge of "The Royals" after that terrible day would be like wearing a sign that reads "Muslim Jihadist and Proud Of It!" in The US after 9/11.

I will admit to being next to clueless about Ireland religious and political divisions. I knew an Irish-American from Boston when I was in the Army who claimed that real Irishmen were Catholics and hated the Brits. As an aside, he was the only white man I ever met who called himself anything other than a plain ol' American. He always referred to himself as an Irish-American. Maybe it's a Boston thing.

Most of us are neither strictly "pro" or "anti" British, and we see the North as a complicated mess, which is why southern Irish tend to be only lukewarm about the idea of the united Ireland - we don't want the mess the British caused! LOL

The majority of us are against terrorist violence from both sides first and foremost.
