Question

Why were the Irish given so much trouble when they came over?

Answer

Read a little history. Learn about the times. Learn about the Irish that came, who they were, why they were here, here brought them here, what was done to them when they got here. Why focus on the Irish? Check out the Italians, the Poles and most other eastern Europeans who were met with like welcome. The great melting pot assimilates Teutonic immigrants like the Germans, the Scandanavians, the French, the British and Beneluxers, and cooks the rest for dinner. brbrIf you dont want to do the reading, you dont really want an answer.brbrTake what you learn and relate it to the Chinese on the West Coast at the same time, the Mexicans, Vietnamese, Indians, Arabs and Hispanics today, and the blacks since the first ones were hauled over in chains in .brbrIts pretty much about basic christian love of ones fellow man, the power and financial elite providing a scapegoat to deflect attention and animosity from themselves, and the need of the folks at the bottom to have someone below to spit on.brbrThat said, the Irish deserved it.
