    I'm surprised that no one else did this
    since that was the exact time of Proclamation maybe someone official that would televise it

      ***** Still taking orders from Rome though aren't they? Bending over to have their sovereignty fucked by Popes and bishops as if they were a 12 year old choir boy.

    • @stephenblackwell7351
      @stephenblackwell7351 8 лет назад

      ***** Is that why Bishops are on medical panels and have stymied any chances of abortion laws for decades? Their power is certainly dwindling but the Church has had huge power both politically and culturally over the Irish for decades while the rest of the world was shedding off their theocratic shells. The Pope is the ultimate king of Ireland.

    • @stephenblackwell7351
      @stephenblackwell7351 8 лет назад

      ***** Yeah but lack of abortion rights is due mostly to religious influence.

    • @stephenblackwell7351
      @stephenblackwell7351 8 лет назад

      +John D Ruddy Patriotism is a psychopathic disorder. Nationalism is an infantile disease. Proud Irishmen remind me of fat feminists boasting about fat pride: they need to shout it loudly to cover up the voice inside that tells them how weak and insignificant they are.

    • @JohnDRuddyMannyMan
      @JohnDRuddyMannyMan  8 лет назад +9

      This was more a social experiment too and in some ways seeing the reactions. The reactions to the proclamation 100 years ago was that of indifference. Some people stopped and listened, others wandered past and wondered "what is he on about?"
      You can see that in some of the passersby in my video.

      Don't worry, I only went all Irish for the centenary of the Easter Rising, it's a big thing in Ireland. I've got new videos about ww2, American civil war and Vietnam coming out soon!
