Thank you for this. I grew up in an Irish Catholic family in an Irish neighborhood and we used to play that we were in the provisionals with our toy guns.

As I got older my dad asked me not to put money in the hat at the pub when they collected for NorAid as it was probably going to Whitey to send AR-15s from Boston to Derry.

On a happier note, I'm in an anthology with Pádraig Ó Tuama out in May from Hachette, which is pretty wild for me.
