I'm Irish. If only Irish people were celebrating Halloween, I'd be very lonely, 'cause not many of my friends are Irish. ;_;

Or how about if America comes and squashes Ireland and takes the holiday for ourselves? Be serious....

XxLpuTheoryxX PoppyDadswell ok,we irish love our paddy's day and halloween but hate when we other countries celebrating our customs,particularally the americans.surely americans have their own traditions and customs other than thanksgiving.if foreigners wish to enjoy irish customs they should come to ireland to see them.50% of america cannot be irish-they are american,and 50% of americans with irish descent is impossible-look how tiny ireland is and how huge america is.
America is a melting pot. You will find all types of cultures, customs, backgounds, languages and nationalities. Americans also celebrat Cinco de Mayo. Im Mexican and I don't get upset that Americans celebrate my custom. I think its cool. I also beleive that if you get offended that americans are celebrating other customs then you need to grow up. The world is changing and more customs and traditions are being shared with one other and I think that is awesome. If you think certain customs should only be shared with certain people in a certain place then you are closed minded.
Halloween is amazing! Im going to continue to celebrate it whether Ireland likes it or not. If you feel like celebrateing Cinco De Mayo, then go for it!I Love You!

How about; screw you! I'm celebrating Halloween this year, and honestly, I could care less if you don't like it.
Besides, my grandpa was Irish. The WAS is because he's dead. So congradu-freakin-lations.

PoppyDadswell the.ugly.duck.girl hey! christianity originated in egypt or something like that (im probably totally wrong) but more than half the world worship it (which is totally sad) so why cant i worship halloween as the bestest vacation ever invented by mankind? and anyhoo my great-great-grandma was irish, so nya xp foo you
i certain hope that you are not implying that having a irish descendant gives you the right to broadcast how "Irish" you are,because all that means is you are just of irish descent nothing more.

This has gone past ridiculous. There is no point to get condescending and trying to one up each other. One post about how one does not have a right to celebrate something for their lack of full blood or their religious affiliation. It doesn't matter in the long run, the point is to be a decent person and be accepting of those around you. Aviod oppression. Maybe the meaning has been lost pertaining to customs and perverted by translation and time, but there is no point by spreading ignorance and intolerance. If you wish to better the respect given to such things, it is better to properly educate, not exclude and insult. This behavior is childish.
