I AM American. I don't identify as jack crap, I am what I am. I was born in America, I live in America, my family has fought for America, I regularly exercise my American liberties so by those denominations, I am American.

Irish, but because I live in Northern Ireland I'm not allowed to be Irish according to some people. I have to be Northern Irish is British.

In a context where specificity doesn't matter it should be fine to call yourself Irish, nobody should have a problem with that, but in this kind of context the specificity should be there.

I'm sure you know this but you said "according to some people" like they're wrong about it: we are technically Northern Irish, not Irish.
Northern Ireland is a nation, a completely separate nation. All Northern Ireland and The Republic of Ireland share now is a landmass, a continent, and a word in their names.

If you were born in The Republic of Ireland then you are 100% Irish, but if you're like me and were born in the North then we are stuck with the Northern prefix, which I don't mind.
