Of the land is of the land, well it used to be
Keep your manipulative nationalism
In times past, when your mother was pregnant with you she ate produce grown in Irish soil, north or south, doesn't matter.
Then you grew up eating produce that was grown in the same soil, you were literally of the land and water
Now, we all shop in Lidl or Tescos, so we're German

Think about it tho, it ain't logic, all the minerals protein you eat and that which make up the animals you eat. Which ever soil it came from, is what your made of
I don't buy Israeli products, read my sig
Remember Ian Paisley saying Norn Iron was British yada yada but the Cows were Irish and therefore should not be banned from export.
Cake and eat it come to mind.

Horrible horrible man, awful, the list of why is endless. I call him a such not because of what imaginary border lines he lived within or because of his loyalties, but just because he was a horrible hate filled hate inciting ****
I'd watch 2 girls and a cup before I'd watch that vid

Him and his party having so much power really typifies the problem in NI... Only the extremists run for government and they spend their time catering to the extremists that put them there. The reasonable unionist is the silent majority in NI.
Really depressing sometimes. DUP, SF are both as bad as each other. UUP are a waste of time. SDLP are both a waste of time and led by a bigoted fool. I vote Alliance and Green - I will never see my choice elected.
The ONE thing you can say for Paisley is that he genuinely believed what he said and genuinely tried to represent NI... Conviction is a rare (and often scary) trait in a politician.
EDIT: I would be careful to call them 'imaginary borderlines' unless you mean in the global sense that all borders are artificial constructs we'd be better without. To the majority in NI it's a legitimate exercise of self-determination.
Self determination has nothing to do with imaginary lines on a map. Communities and municipalities can be self governing, they do not need a centralised seat of power, the less centralised self determination there is the more people are represented by those they choose to make the decisions. As in a federation for example. A real one which is just cooperation of independent regions.
Saying I live within this border and you live within that border only leads to one thing. Conflict
The problem, everyone is so bent on entertainment that no one wants to be arsed in taking part, and the govs provide them with the easy way out, vote once every 4 years and let someone else do it so we can go back to working long hours for ever decreasing salary worth and the constant search for satisfaction while the media keeps us uninformed and at each other's throats.
Then said communities cooperate, maybe even form a council memebers of all cooperating communities and municipalities, no politics, they get the job based on their CVs not fancy speeches and broken promises, no terms, no political hierarchies, no nationalism. Just a sterling effort to improve your own lives and make good decisions that are driven by the communities needs.
Government and media are stopping society from evolving. False ever growing economics are nothing but a pyramid scheme funneling money upwards, economy should not grow only excpet to supply demand, yet we throw out as much as we eat and throw working technology into the bin.
A kid in times past learned from his parents and then from teachers, now mom and dad have to work and hand the kids over to state programming by law.
You don't need an imaginary line to determine yur own future, you need to unite and act, that is all that is required.
We are going backwards as a race, that I do not doubt for one second
I agree with that. I would have decentralised zones with working councils. No politicians. The Chomsky vision...But that will realistically only happen after some sort of global disaster...
EDIT: Personally given how small the UK + Ireland are, the original UK made perfect sense but was governed wrong during colonialism. A federal UK could be a very good thing.
