I am not really sure what kinda point Joe is trying to make about Irish immigrants?
My “great greats” were all Irish too AND did experience prejudice AND did live among other Irish in Chicago.
The difference between them and the illegals is that they came in LEGALLY. And, they got an education, joined the Army/Marines became Police Officers, paid taxes, joined the city government AND assimilated. Don’t see to many signs for “No Irish Wanted” anymore do you? Of course, we still dye the Chicago river green
