The History Place - Irish Potato Famine: Gone to America
"In Boston, as well as other American cities in the mid-1800s, there was no enforcement of sanitary regulations and no building or fire safety codes. Landlords could do as they pleased. A single family three-story house along the waterfront that once belonged to a prosperous Yankee merchant could be divided-up room by room into housing for a hundred Irish, bringing a nice profit."
[We don't need no stinkin' regulations.]

"Wherever they settled, the Irish kept to themselves to the exclusion of everyone else, and thus were slow to assimilate. Americans were thus slow to accept the Irish as equals, preferring instead to judge them by the cartoon stereotypes of drunken, brawling Irishmen published in newspapers of the day. Irish immigrants were also derided in the press as 'aliens' who were mindlessly loyal to their Catholic leaders in place of any allegiance to America."

Just imagine if this was the 18 hundreds and Elizabeth Warren was Irish. My God, Scott Warren would have a field day with her.

More irrelevance. Speak to warren's character, her accomplishments. (those she would have had without her fraudulent claims of NA blood)

The Irish deserved everything they got and then some. The Irish brought with them the most vicious forms of criminal activity. It is no wonder that when organized crime took over the unions in New York, the first thing the unions did was employ the Irish as enforcers. That's what put the Tammany in Tammany Hall.

The Irish mob is the oldest organized criminal enterprise in the US. It predates the Mafia by decades.

If this was the 1800s, Elizabeth Warren would have had the Boodle Gang, Bowe Brothers, Dead Rabbits or Roach Guard simply torturing people to death on her behalf.

Gads have we REALLY romanticized the Irish THAT MUCH!.
 
Where did emptyhead go?

Seriously!

Coward or troll? It's a toss up.

We have more than a few around here fond of leaving ridiculous posts and when torn apart with logic and reason, the poster is nowhere to be found. My gosh, it's like taking a shit in the middle of the living room, then slipping out the back door leaving the stinking, steaming pile for all of us to enjoy. What's with that?!
