Whatever floats your hate boat. They were an oppress people in America. Think how much prejudices the Jews and Italians had to suffer in America before they could be taken serious as comedians! One thing people often forget is that the KKK list Jews and Italians on their list of people to hate right after African Americans and the Irish and Catholics. I guess "Irish Catholics" get a double dose of hate from the KKK.
