Mostly Irish Americans, some Irish people who recently emigrated, some actual Irish citizens over for the week. Don't pin the(modern) IRA on the entire Irish diaspora. On either side of the sea.

I'm not pinning anything on anybody apart from those that donated money. I just wonder now that innocents have been killed on their own doorstep if they feel any conscience for what they did.
I've been to Boston, it's a lovely city the people were lovely and they don't deserve to have a tragedy like this happen to them. Just like the people who were shopping in the Arndale centre that day didn't either.
