The crooked Congressman who said he'd break the reporter like a boy? Yeah he resigned. But that's not because many Islanders wanted him to.
Just remember Grimm wasn't from SI. He was from Queens. The only reason we voted for him was because Reechia was an absolute train wreck and by keeping the seat Republican even now with Grimm stepping down we can field a stronger candidate than the Democrats can. The Democrats have a shot if Mike McMahon runs again, outside of that there is no body viable.

Grimm played the "I have a Sicilian mother" card pretty often, from what I remember of his first run.
It's hardly his first scandal. I remember when he banged some girl in the bathroom at The Owl's Head bar in Bay Ridge.
Once again, more Italian duscrimination. I thought that after the recent events in Missouri, the US was against discrimination and pro-PC, but the population seems to exclude Italians from this. If Chuck Todd made a similar comment about Jews or blacks, his career would be over, and rightfully so.

Where's the Italian outrage? Because it is said about Italians and they don't complain like other groups who do, when they are painted poorly by the media is whose fault?

No, not loudly enough. In many ways we gave ourselves this stereo type. I think Shows like Mob Wives and Jersey Shore are despicable and give Italians and Staten Islanders a bad rap. Can you imagine the out rage of there was a Jewish Jersey shore or a Black version of Mob Wives staring the baby mommas of gang members. The out rage would reach Washington D.C.
