Fuck the (modern day) IRA. They’re terrorists, stop pretending they’re freedom fighters. Even though I’ve met a couple of former IRA members, who were nice people, I do not condone intentionally hurting civilians.
I don’t think anyone thinks the modern IRAs (there are many of them) are anything resembling freedom fighters. The argument is about whether they were that during the Troubles, after which the Provisional IRA (the Irish side of the Troubles) pretty much stopped existing.

You would be shocked at the number of “Irish”-Americans who believe the IRA are good guys.
