I am using the term loyalist liberally here. Like I said earlier take it in context, I'm not here to argue semantics. However that is where I derived the term from and was using it because of that. I'm not saying I hate all loyalists for all time, just in this specific situation, under the circumstances I mentioned. And even then I don't hate them, I just don't think they should continually support the occupation of N Ireland, it should be united with the Republic.
