I heard a couple stories this week (here in my town)
concerning two incidents of people getting their shorts in
a knot over someone wearing orange on St. Pat's
Day this year. I was aware that the color orange
represented the protestant faith (which I am) and is
one of the colors on the Irish flag. I can't imagine
the problem would be as simply bigoted as anti-protestant sentiment. Perhaps some of you with stronger ties to Irish ancestry than I (Jimmy C. maybe) could fill me in if you know anything about the topic......?
