Night of riots over the right to march.
How many months in an Orangeman's calender? 15, because you have the usual amount and then March! March! March!

And the normal melting pot, which always runs at boiling point.
In this case nationalists (Catholic) attacking loyalist (Protestant) property.

From the BBC here:
Quote:
"It appears that a crowd had come from the Stewartstown Road end and from the Black's Road end into the estate and just started - for no reason other than I would take purely sectarian reasons - attacking cars.

The numbers of them. You are used to people walking by the odd Saturday night and throwing bricks or throwing bottles but fact that there was so many of them, this time, was extremely worrying."
Bolding mine.

This is still a part of everyday life in NI.
Live somewhere dominated by one form of Christianity, get targeted by the other.
