There had been sporadic violence throughout the year arising out of the civil rights campaign and a call for UN troops to patrol the province by Irish Taoiseach Jack Lynch. There were also calls for the disbanding of the controversial volunteer police force the B specials. Local residents in the affected areas blame 'outsiders' for stirring up the troubles and causing damage.

The man and woman at the start. Decent ordinary people caught up in it all.
Correct
Interviewer has some nerve. 'You say youre all innocent but theres an IRA slogan on that wall'... what a ridiculous and smarmy thing to say to a wee woman that's just lost her home.
It's an old tale and so sad. The average people didn't want involved, the ones destroying their neighborhood, didn't live there. Neighbors got along until outsiders came in.
These people have had their homes burnt down and they are still not quick to judge.....
Give ireland back to the Irish unity partition has not worked
pretty tough to see. Both sides majority wanted peace at this point but as the troubles went on things got more and more divided.
52 years on and sectarianism still has not ended in Northern Ireland!
you think THAT'S bad; Hitler killed two thirds of all European Jews in 4 years [1941-45]
NI was founded on a sectarian headcount. It's a sick society. So as long as the state continues to exist then sectarianism cannot end.
DUP being assholes again
Ulster Protestants Unionists won't forget 1641-1691 it's pathetic and Irish Roman Catholics won't forget British colonialism.
Paisley was pure evil
IRA kept old man alive for amusement give Ulster Scots one last clown
Troubles: Coming to an America near you!
People on both sides are sectarian.
That would be an ecumenical matter.
The saddest part about this was where the reasonable Protestant was trying to talk rationally about what had been happening, only for more hot-headed partisans to shout him down and focus on us vs them.
Such is life.
Such is brainwashed protestants
Are you talking about the man at 2:49? I think those men were all catholics. The protestants are interviewed at the end of the video.
@@lmonk9517 yes you're right, says a lot though.
Ian Paisley the menace of Northern Ireland like IRA.
Ulster Protestants a lot of them live 17th Century and they call the Republic of Ireland out for past Rome dogma rule.
4.29 THERE WAS THE PROBLEM
Some hipster glasses in 2021 i see here.
just seems that protestants wanted the irish to shut up and remain 2nd class citizens and remain in their place. attitudes like was always going to lead to the same results
Spot on....Alas that seems to be still the case...They still can't acknowledge the fact that they're being out voted and out numbered...But I can guarantee you this in the New Ireland the Protestant people of the north of Ireland will NEVER be descriminated against like the Nationalists were for over 50 years.
Well not really but sure believe that false piece of info
@@Jamescoop2454 That what Protestants reactions in video saying all one sided sectarianism which is bs if listen tramp Ian Paisley spouting anti Irish Roman Catholic bile
AND WHAT FOLLOWED
Thank you.
And then after a 30 year conflict that couldn’t shift the border from Ireland boom 💥 the smartest political thinkers in unionism campaigned and won Brexit 😅 and shifted the border for the Provos and dumped it in the Irish Sea… 😂 even Prods have had enough and started voting Alliance…
Prods should vote SDLP

@Scumfuck McDoucheface Not as much as u!
@Scumfuck McDoucheface You're new here, aren't you.
Ian Paisley and his kind have much to answer for, speaking as a dispassionate and neutral outsider.
Egomaniacs, using religion to exert influence. Republicanism is a political idea, not a religious faith.
Loyalism, because of the premise that it is conditional to continued protestant ascendancy to the throne, not so much, but that, alas, harkens back to an age when religion was deeply entwined with politics.
Ironically, it requires a leap of faith by all denominations on the island of Ireland, both sides of the border, to fully embrace one of the founding tenets of democracy - the separation between Church and state, in thought, word and deed.
Clergy have no business in politics.
An Irish Republic cannot call itself independent, while enact laws influenced by the Vatican. That is the conduct of a vassal state.
Just my opinion.
You are greatly mistaken if you think the Republic of Ireland are influnced by the Vatican...That must be the reason all the CatholicChurches are closing down all over the country...There are only a minorty of young people going to church...There are very few Catholic priests left to say Sunday Mass and the few that are left are over 60 or 70. You do realize that being gay is legal in the republic as is abortion both against the wishes of Rome.. .On the contrary it's in the six counties of Ireland religion is being used as an excuse to vilify the Irish state . Nothing could be further from the truth... I don't believe in any church...It's used as an excuse for keeping our country divided. Until our country is one north & south working for all the people of the island will there ever be peace in the north of our island...Now days it would be hard to meet one young person that even believes in a God...be it a "Protestant God or a Catholic God."....The country is now made up of people from all over the world. There is no animosity or discrimination against any one no matter where they come from but when we look uo the road at our neighbours we see people threatening to burn women in bonfires with pure hate and bigotry in their hearts...What do you thing that picture tells the world about a certain society in the six north eastern counties of our island.
Im an irish republican always have been, im 55 years old. Atheist, i literally couldn't tell you the name off the pope today. A republican in the true sense off the word. Kneel to no pope or loyal to no born privileged monarchy
You clown Republic of Ireland doesn't have any Roman Catholic dogma to learn real Irish history Republic of Ireland abandoned Rome dogma in 80s and 90s
