Unfortunately this hatred is born and nurtured from the cradle, I thought it might end with the 1990,s generation, but apparently not - do not know the answer mikey.
It is inherent in them, they wont simply give up! Not that I am justifying their actions
Look to who a divided society benefits and you have your answer. I would have thought
Of course religion will be to blame. But please ignore the fact that most of these people do not attend church or particularly hold Christian beleifs. Feel free to derail this statement with some non-comment like 'Know all of them, do you?'

Its just a banner to stand beneath, a flag to wave, a reason to treat each other badly. If it wasn't religion it'd be something else; society is like that.

Very sad that some people, at least, cannot see the enormous benefits that peace would bring to both sides of the community.

Just noticed that My should have been MORE.
We didnt think you had taken ownership of them mikey!!
There’s far more to this than religion. This is a bitter political divide dating back hundreds of years – and one to which no answer will please everyone.

Wiki, as usual, gives a clear insight
It all started in the garden of Eden over an apple, so why has somebody changed the fruit to an Orange?

I have an old work colleague that always goes abroad for August, as the marching season can be dreadful. Its expensive but he says it better then staying in Ulster and watching this nonsense.
I would say a large majority are just kicking off for the excitement of kicking off.
The rioting in uk cities year before last was certainly a knock on effect of total idiots rioting for the sake of rioting. There may be an element of this in Northern Ireland but I would imagine most (beleive) they have a cause
The Bible doesn't mention an apple.
It's like a habit. The Protestants march, the Catholics kick off. The Catholics march the Protestants kick off.
One does wonder if there are more sinister, criminal, reasons for this kind of behaviour. There have long been rumours about territorial wars over protection rackets, drug dealing and the like. How easy for these guys to hide behind a mask of sectarianism.

Funds must be running low in certain areas!
Rumours about drug dealing? Surely not lol

Riots in the UK seldom take place in the winter months. You get a contentious march in the City Centre and a warm evening, a few beers and chances are...
I live here as you know - and for some reason this year have been completely unaware of the blasted troubles.

I saw some bits on TV some weeks ago with the sound mute as I had visitors and I glanced and thought it was old TV - no it was recent - wish they would get together as one marching parade and drown themselves in the Irish sea and give us a rest as we are sick to death of it. So much sorrow and loss of life Live and let Live. PS - without these baskets - this is a lovely country with so much to give. Hangs head in shame!
It does seem odd that this parade was allowed to take place over that route given the rising tensions.
The world's police and fire fighters are in the city just now. I wonder what they thought
