You don’t see them going after the Irish

Wrong freaking century, lady.


She's off by over 100 years, plus the Irish came here LEGALLY!

“She’s off by over 100 years, plus the Irish came here LEGALLY!”

There were lots of illegal Irish in the Boston area in the 80’s and early 90’s. Most of them ended up going home because:

1. They were homesick.
2. The cost of living here.
3. The economy improved in Ireland.

Now Ireland has its own immigrant problem.
