An Irish actor (in gladiator 2?) said about meeting the king of England was that it wasn't on his list of priorities and now people are freaking the heck out.

Maybe eradicating feudalism was a mistake; lots of people clearly miss the days of peasantry.

The Irish don’t like the British crown? WOW, I didn’t know that. You’re telling me now for the first time.

He should put out a public statement to "apologize" and say something like "I see many of you were disturbed by my comments regarding the king of England. I apologize and want to clarify: The king of England can suck my balls, spin on my dick, and I can't wait to sing "Charlie's in a box""

That might bar him from ever visiting the UK, I dunno, but who wants to visit the UK when you're already Irish?

That was the most tame thing an Irish person could possibly say about meeting the fucking King of England (aside from like my weird British-aristocracy loving relatives, many such cases in Ireland unfortunately)

Should have said this to anyone giving him shit:

"Men will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest."
