All Nations have some reasons for holding negative thoughts to certain things and people visiting their country where in history there has been tensions.
English hands in history are very far from clean as to the Republic of Ireland too.

However the President of Ireland has invited the Queen to the Nation and she has accepted,naturally some will welcome the visit,others not so, that does not mean necessarily disrespect to the Queen but its only natural there will be some reservations to the visit.

Whatever any protests may take, I am sure they will be lower key protests but as I said English(and I am English) hands are far from clean as to our treatment of the Irish in parts of history so it is never likely our Monarch would be welcomed by everyone there.

I hope in the end it goes well for her and all the great people of the Republic of Ireland too.
