Bravo, Corky ;)

No doubt you are also ashamed of many of your fellow Corkmen to whom “physical force Irish republicanism” was the only way they felt they could oust the British from Cork’s fair county.

Fellows like Michael Collins, Tom Barry etc.

I bet you kept the hatred you felt towards violent republicans to yourself in school, though.

Those fellows are pretty highly regarded in County Cork.

Particularly out Kilmichael, Dunmanaway direction ?
This is a very simplified term i suppose, but the way i see it there was a good IRA and a bad IRA.

I guess i see the provos/real and continuity IRA as bad, and the Michael Collins/Tom Barry era IRA as not quite as bad i suppose.
