chrisp65 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Like a sort of South Africa style truth and reconciliation thing? That sounds like a very good idea to me, draw a line, get everything out in the open and move on. But I can completely understand how people have been massively hurt by the troubles on both sides and it takes a really strong person not to constantly seek punishment for the other side. Could you see a T & R commission hearing from somebody that they carried out a pub bombing or a disappearance and the other side saying forgive and move on? I don't think we've got to that point in our mindsets. There simply wouldn't be the media consensus to carry it along and nudge and persuade 'public opinion' along to the greater peaceful good. The best thing I believe we can hope for is the dilution of genes in truly crude terms. Everytime somebody marries out of their little community every time Mr Patel sets up a Polski Sklep we inch forward to the divisions being too blurred to enforce.
