   Standing up against bully’s wow, how American can you get. I always thought of this as being one of the very best traits America has always had and it is about time that it is put back to practice once again. This is part of what the American Heritage is all about, we stand up for those who are too intimadated to stand up for themselves but only a true american would know that.

   The temptation to just say “screw it” and go back to Ireland just keeps getting stronger.

   Does anyone remember the old Bronski Beat video for Smalltown Boy, it kinda reminded me of that.

    I am 77 and I am sitting here crying. If only everyone in this world would respect each other no matter what gender, religion or color. We need to all stand up and hold hands and stand up for each other.

    Very touching. No tears, more a feeling of… of hope, and I’m thinking maybe humanity has a few redeeming qualities.

    Would I be correct in assuming this wonderful ad appeared on Irish television? Imagine the outcry from millions of primitive superstitious dolts if it appeared in the US.
