Good point. The Irish and those of Irish extraction certainly don’t give a rip about this ridiculous notion of “cultural appropriation.” And it seems most Mexicans don’t either — Cinco de Mayo is celebrated by countless Americans dressed in all manner of Mexican dress. Seems just the college-age snowflakes have a problem with any of this stuff.

Does this mean I should have been whining and complaining every year when a bunch of idiots of Italian, Jewish, Hispanic, German, etc. extraction wear those silly green bowler hats to the St. Patrick’s Day parade in New York or Boston
Speaking of which, how about Lucky Charms cereal? for the last 50 years it's been marketed by a cartoon caricature of a green leprecaun with an Irish brogue acting silly and superstitious. Yet the Hibernians, the Emerald Society, Sons of Erin, even the IRA (it's a popular kid's cereal in the UK as well) NEVER uttered a peep of protest about this. Years ago some smart-ass students at Rutgers posing as "Irish-American activists" petitioned to ban the cereal from the cafeterias as a gag, the adim, being the PC chickensh!ts they are actually fell for this phony demand. On a related note, among the most popular video games from the 80's and 90's, Mario Bros. The main characters, Mario and Luigi are shown with thick mustaches dressed up like the "Super" in an old NYC walk-up apartment building. programmed to speak with obvious italian accents frequently blurting out "MAMA MIA!". Have the Sons of Italy or the Italian Anti-Defamation league ever bitched about that?
