[QUOTE="Hermit, post: 141418, member: 216"] "The land of a thousand welcomes" (sic) This line about "céad míle fáilte" gets trotted out a lot... The phrase was originally about showing hospitality to a stranger (specifically, another Irish person calling to your house). When tourism began it took on a broader meaning about showing hospitality to tourists, and a marketing slogan for the Irish tourist industry. It has nothing to do with immigration. The phrase is also a temporary sentiment, like refuge, referring to a transient stay - not permanently welcoming someone in your home (or country). It does not mean infinity welcomes, nor a million welcomes (the amount of foreigners we have now) - we have exceeded our "céad míle fáilte" by a factor of ten. To hear them use this phrase against us, as if we are obliged to uphold this phrase for eternity by accepting mass immigration, is so insulting. We should remind all these foreigners and libtards about another Irish phrase, "Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin" - there is no place like home, Ireland is our home and immigrants should return to their homes.
