It's like comparing apples to oranges.

First off, the events I'm talking about were hundreds of years before English/Norman/British subjugation of Ireland. In fact, at the time the 'English' were still invading Britain from the east. The Normans invaded Ireland in the 1100s, the era I'm talking about is about 400 to 700.

Secondly, I don't remember saying anybody was 'bad'. I'm not applying value judgements to entire nationalities. Stop viewing history as a nationalistic game of ascribing blame to peoples.

Calm down. My comment had no nationalistic intent. I was literally just correcting the factual error in the 'clever comeback'.

Besides, I'm dual Irish-British. Am I supposed to be fighting with myself or something?
