No and no
An orangeman is a member of the Loyal Orange Order, formed by protestant in Northern Ireland loyal to the British crown.
They are anti-catholic, pro english, and pro monarchy a very sectarian order.
they are the one that celebrate on the 12th of July and march to celebrate the battle of the boyne.

for personal, moral and political reasons

if these guys are so bad and hated on, then why the hell does a college name thier mascot after them? (Syracuse)
Because the politics in Northern ireland and the U.S. are different. Most North Americans don't have a clue what's happening there, only the the ones who have ties there like me and Vandoo.

U of Syracuse at first was a protestant University created by Irish protestant related to the orange order that why they have the nickname, there are an awful history of abuses against catholic in that part of NY.
for the people who doesnt know William of Orange was a dutch prince. The brit who wanted a proddie monarchy (long story)
anyways he went on against the catholic forces and Irish forces in 1690,
THE PROTESTANT FORCES WERE BACKED BY THE POPE!!! Ironic eh.....
something those oragemen seem to forget when they bang on the bang the pope(drum) when they parade. lol.
