Yes same as catholics, protestants etc, it all comes down to dominion over others. Eventually, not in our time, the race labeling will be gone, tho I expect some will still be that way.

The Irish Heritage club.



The Irish Immigration Reform Movement (IIRM) was a grassroots organization established in 1987 whose primary objective was to legalize the status of undocumented immigrants from Ireland and 34 other countries adversely affected by America’s 1965 Immigration Act.

The IIRM was also instrumental in securing 25,000 visas for Ireland through several extensions of the Donnelly Visa program from 1988 up to the implementation of the Immigration Act of 1990.



Welcome to the official website of the IABANY, the Irish American Bar Association of New York.

Established in 1987, the IABANY is a professional organization dedicated to connecting, serving and celebrating New York's legal professionals who are Irish born, of Irish heritage or simply interested in things Irish.

Wow, why are these people always bringing up their heritage???..

Don't forget Congressman Peter King who has contributed financially to the IRA, a listed terrorist organization. By definition his citizenship status should be considered null and void as with Al-Awlaki and a drone oughtta be firing a missile up his fat Irish keyster any minute now.

Good luck trying to win a national election by alienating 1/4 of the US population.
I wouldnt go so far as to say anyone is hated. It's the special treatment most hate. Especially when you see folks simply making bad choices, that have no true barriers to success.

Are you serious? I worked in a company in the production department for a while. I knew quite a few Hispanics who could not speak English and still couldn't even after years (I would stop by the company from time to time after I left). One reason given why they wouldn't learn English: "It's too hard."

I kept in contact with a co-worker who keeps in contact with two former co-workers who still can't speak English even though they were with that company from 1989 to 2005.

actually I can.
I work with some in a high paying job who barely get by in day to day conversation. We're talking Engineers.
I have to revert to my Spangugese to communicate with them.

oh, they've been here 4 years.

That's a common feature among engineers in general.

Illegal aliens, is not a race issue. It is a national sovereignty issue.
