I was going to type this as a joke, but on reflection I think it's 100% unironically true:
The only reason they care is because Ireland's right-wing hooligans are actually willing to physically mob up and attack immigrants and police, whereas a lot of the right wing in the US is too skeered to get into the streets and do the same un-stochastically ever since Ashli Babbit. They wish their followers here would do the same and can't wait for it to start to happen.
Most of the American right is afraid to travel to any large city without a gun.
That would be a big problem if they travelled.

The redneck version of Las Vegas. Lots of G-rated entertainment with shows that don't run past 9 pm.
Pops can't leave loaded gun to go to his bathroom.
I love chatting with 2As online. They all swear that they are responsible gun owners who keep their weapons locked up, and go to the range to keep up their skills. They also hate the idea that insane people might be denied guns for any reason.
That's what makes me sad. I know people in the north that have intense weapons closets for maintaining humidity and security. Meanwhile relatives in the south have loaded guns in the closet next to the umbrella and waving them around the house. So irresponsible.
