: Maybe you didn't get the fact that William Wallace actually existed. The film might have a lst of goofs a mile long but that doesn't mean the English in the past weren't responsible for the most criminal of atrocities.
I know Will Wallace existed--ever heard of William Moncrieff? Well he fought alongside and was a decendant of mine. I'm just saying alot of the facts in BRAVEHEART were knowingly wrong, and people believe too much of it.
: For eight hundred years Ireland had to suffer terrible slavery, serfdom and persecution from English kings. The royals settled Ireland by giving away land to the peerage and gentry. Landlords and Squires bled the working Irishman dry.
I never said anything about the Irish. I just said most of Ireland is part of Britain, and that's a fact.
: The majority of "Irland" is English? Shame on you for your ignorance. I'll forgive you for this oversight, I'm sure it's not your fault you're so misinformed.
Where to start here? I said Ireland is mostly british (cept Northern) and you made it look like I said English? Jesus, you're fucked up...
