Despite a bullet reading "hey fascist! Catch", Left-wing media claim Tyler Robinson is "Right-wing". Anything to avoid facing the fact that political violence is a growing problem on the American Left, says Laurie Wastell.

Queen’s visit an insult to America
The Irish Freedom Committee denounces this weekend’s visit to Virginia and Washington by the queen of England, and the crass display of stolen wealth, monarchy and imperialism she brings to the US. We decry and condemn the total waste of US taxpayers' money as politicians in official Washington and elsewhere fall over themselves to honor representatives of a monarchy that is unashamed of it's centuries old history of barbarity and inhumanity to other peoples.
As the matriarch of the one of the wealthiest families in the world --not one of whose members can be credited with an honest day's work, being paid by public welfare-- arrives in this country, the anglophiles and sycophants who bow and curtsy before these "regals" thereby refuse to honor and recall the enormous sacrifices of those who fought two wars to gain America's freedom from the original "Evil Empire".
We believe it was Mahatma Ghandi who coined the phrase "The Butcher’s Apron" to describe the British flag. The name is fitting for a flag that presided over the rape, pillage, exploitation, and genocide of so many nations across the globe, including the United States. As Irish Americans, we well remember the legacy of Britain’s bloody apron in driving our ancestors out of Ireland, and into a land which been similarly raped, pillaged, and robbed of natural resources owned by it’s Native American population.
We see nothing to celebrate in the 400 year anniversary of the genocide of Native Americans begun at the British settlement at Jamestown, or the mass enslavement of Africans that followed under the edicts of Britain’s queen Elizabeth. We are disgusted that this visit occurs on the 26th anniversary of the death of Bobby Sands at Long Kesh prison, a cruel and agonizing death on hunger strike, under the watch of the British monarchy.
After 400 years, it's quite a pitiful sight to witness so many Americans, purportedly in possession of their faculties, who blithely forget or ignore this nations struggle for freedom from that very country before whose "dignitaries" they fawn. The toadying displays this weekend over this ancient symbol of British colonial rule have no place in the United States. We condemn the presence of this relic of colonialism, genocide, slavery and imperialism on our ground, and we ask Americans to remember the Britain’s bloody legacy instead.
God save this nation of 50 independent states!!

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3This piece seems to imply that the extermination of the native American peoples was completed by the British before the arrival of any immigrants from Ireland. This is ludicrous.
Irish migrants to America did their part in the opening of the West to colonization and exploitation as much as every other European people group, regardless of what situation they were fleeing in their native lands.
There is absolutely no evidence of Irish people standing shoulder to shoulder with native North Americans while their cultures were decimated throughout the late 19th-early 20th centuries.
This statement is far too little, far too late.
I understand your concern and I agree with ancient history. Part of my family was a part of this and we apologize for what our family did in the old days. It was not nice and many many many suffered at the hands of this. It is hard to forget as I have been punished in ways you can't even imagin for what has happened in the past. My great great great ????? was guilty of this and was one of the biggest offenders, he was in fact. It seems that over time many different people have been cruel and GOD only knows why this happens. History isn't pretty and like I said, I have suffered things that you can not understand because of my past history and my relatives a part of this. It seem that our ansters can't seem to lay themselves down and rest in peace, it always comes up one way or another. History does not have to repeat itself but grudges and past hate seems to surface again and again. I hope that some day that this will be put to rest and we can get along in this world and enjoy each other's country and all that they have to offer. Such rich history but so very sad and this is reality in this big world. Hate fuels wars and think about it, it is fuled by people who want to make tons and tons of money, they keep it fuled and you know exactly what I am talking about. Ireland is beautiful and wonderful and has so so much to offer people who want to travel and see the wonders of your world and the beauty of your land. I am Cora Baltzell Key Rubidoux, My great great ????was the biggest slave owner in the USA and owned the biggest house at that time, yet on the other side of the coin, the Catholics which most do not have a clue about were presecuted big time in this country by the British, bet you didn't know this and guess what, they wern't Irish but English. So you are correct but you apparently don't have the whole story either. Yes we fought for freedom and yes some of my family were considered traders, can you imagin that? But to whom? Yes, guess what, we were English and by the way, I have some Irish relatives as well. Cora Key Rubidoux
