Prevention is actually cheap and easy. I’ve believed this for sometime. One only has to look at many of the mistakes England made in regard to my birthplace, Northern Ireland. To sane people who don’t understand the motivations in a person for hatred, it might be hard to believe that being stopped by a soldier …
