An Irish View of Parade
Michael J Ryan of Lees Summit has strong words in the letters of Todays KC Star
As with so many other ethnic, cultural events, the history and culture of the day are quite different from the American perception. Any truly Irish person would look at this parade with disgust.
Beg to differ Michael; I respect your opinion, but unless my parents were lying I’m a truly Irish person, and I might have grimaced once or twice but I most certainly didn’t look at the parade with disgust.
