My point is any group in the UK, has a subset of racists. Racism/bigotry shouldn't define the Orange Order, because a small group of them are totally ignorant. I in no way condone/dismiss their behavior, in fact it causes me great embarrassment, as I have many relatives that were Orangemen.
Being raised in a climate of hatred of others, this is the byproduct.
Ireland/Ulster will be dealing with this for generations.
The "Troubles" were the primary reason my parents emigrated to Canada, so I am eternally thankful for their decision, and even more thankful to our great nation.
