Just writing to call out some of the more ridiculous claims I've seen on Twitter today regarding the violence in Belfast. (1) The Good Friday Agreement is not over nor is it about to implode because of the last few nights. Such statements are facile and lazy. (2) The 'Troubles' are not about to restart. Go read a book, please, and take note of the fundamental changes that have happened since '98. If -and I mean IF - violence were to spiral into something more significant, this would NOT BE THE TROUBLES.
