Following from the example above, your Irish certainly haven't been treated any worse than our saami, yet we have managed the transition from master/slave to equal citizens through democracy... Do you believe in genetics? Are the Irish genetically determined to be incapable of living with other brits?

If things happen one way, can we then conclude that was the only way it could've played out?

"Being heard" means "not being overruled". I'm not talking about just physically hearing a voice.

As I've said to Gaelic, try replacing "heard" with "seen"
