Surprising. An Irish American. Here, of all places. Only a hundred years ago the Irish were under the same category that you now place non whites under.  HOW DO YOU FORGET?  In case you haven't heard...Irish people are White. Or do you think they're something else? Irish have always been White(of course, what else?), just considered low class, inferior Whites by the prissy WASPs who enslaved and oppressed them for centuries. They(we) were called White ni##ers by those stuck up Brits who thought they were better than us because they were rich imperialists and the Irish were just simple, poor farmers for the most part. They had to make up pseudo-scientific stories and theories about how the Irish were inferior to the English to justify their mistreatment and oppression of them so that they could sleep better at night without feeling so guilty. The Irish have always been racially White(of course), the main reason the WASPs were so anti-Irish (aside from their needing to justify their exploitatian and oppression of them) had to do with RELIGION. You know, since most Irish are Catholic. Protestant Irish weren't discriminated against nearly so badly, it was mainly just the Catholics. So piss off, you snide little troll. Do you think the Irish are non-White now or what? If they're not White what exactly are they I'd like to know.    PS- I didn't mean to sound too anti-English or British, they're pretty cool guys nowadays, they should just give the Irish back their Ulster though:D
