#8282016-02-12 20:26I signed because it was genocide by the the British establishment, just as it manifested well into the 20th century across the globe. Propaganda by those who were in power, in those times and after, further developed into the history books written by the elite who came after. It only takes 3 generations before something because a common practice, taken on its word. Blight of potatoes caused the famine. Cow milk is good for human consumption. Fluoride cleans your teeth. It's all nonsense and regurgitated propaganda, and it still continues to this day. |

#8292016-02-12 20:36I always was told that we in Ireland were the bread basket for England and the demand for diverting the outflow of food was only from those without a voice. The British policy was clearly one that can only be considered as genocide. We had the livestock and crops but our masters demands never changed. It's a pain we should never forget. |

#8342016-02-12 23:11I'm tired of the governments of the world calling the Irish Holocaust a famine. It's high time the truth be allowed to be known. |
Guest |
#8352016-02-12 23:23To help shine the truth on a terrible period of Irish history and to get an apology from the British government |

#8362016-02-12 23:27because it was always blamed on the potato blight there were fish in the sea wheat in the fields and we irish are afraid and ashamed to admit it |

#8372016-02-12 23:44In memory and in honor of my great great grandfather, Will Heatherington, who came to America from Ireland at age 17, alone, during this time, and for those who were not as fortunate. |

#8402016-02-13 01:21Because I believe history should be recorded accurately and truthfully. |
Guest |
#8412016-02-13 01:36It's an important part of history that gets swept under the rug The level of understanding in the U.S. is such that i have been asked why the Irish didn't eat anything else but potatoes. |

#8422016-02-13 01:46I already read articles and concluded that this was indeed genicide plain and Simple. No one was ever held accountable . We owe it to our people to uncover the truth |

#8432016-02-13 01:51I'm Irish American and my ancestors were there during these horrible times |
Guest |
#8452016-02-13 04:05I owe my signature to honor my heritage and those who suffered. The truth needs to be told and the records set straight. |

#8472016-02-13 05:20History doesn't adequately present the true extent to which Britain was responsible for the Great Hunger..... |
Guest |
#8482016-02-13 05:26Being only a second Generation American of Irish heritage I heard plenty of stories from great grandparents and grandparents passed down of the famine, I remember somewhere hearing my Great Grandmother saying something about eating grass or being given soup made from grass as a child, all this while exports were booming ! I don't think anybody alive today can grasp the level of sadism that the british stooped to in this situation and it should be recognized for what it was Genocide. |

#8492016-02-13 05:33My heart aches for my Cork ancestors and their pain and suffering...and for all of Ireland during these dark years. It is devastating to realize how a nation of strength can swallow up smaller countries and spit them out in an attempt to expand their borders. It is surely no wonder that border countries can not Keep Calm!! |

#8502016-02-13 06:30I strongly believe ,that the british government if nothing else owe the people of Ireland an apology, for the great atrousaty they caused . |
