No, that's not odd at all. The British Government laws in Northern Ireland are way different than elsewhere. No right to a jury trial. Diplock courts still at the discretion of the Crown. Internment without any trial at all still on the books and can be instituted again at any time. Very easy to get a handgun permit if you have the right kind of politics. If or when the British Government brings back a hard border, or indeed any kind of border that negatively affects the Irish things will quickly revert to the old misery and bloodshed. It may seem like democracy in action when a slim majority of people in Wales and England vote to drag the majority of Scots and Northern Irish out of the EU with then but it doesn't seem that way to the Irish or Scots.
