History is history whether people like it or not and traditional commemorations are always held in the highest regards even if they are offensive. It'll take alot more than attempting to build bridges to stop people continuing traditions.

And why shouldn't people celebrate their own religious battles? I know religion is a big thing in ireland and this could obviously be taken in a very offensive way but at the end of the day, religions can offend people without celebrations like this but we dont disregard and hide our own religions to keep others happy do we?

I am roman catholic and I think some religions are unreasonable and negligent to human life, but i dont think my own feelings towards that should stop people from forming their own choices and morals and if they want to celebrate that then its upto them. I cant avoid being offended by things, so i just learn to live with it.
