I have heard that Irish immigrants received a free train ride to fish oysters on the Chesapeake Bay upon arrival at Ellis Island "Back in the Day". One way ticket to captivity on a boat. No bed in a room in a house. There are like less than 5% of the Oysters in the bay that were there in the late 1800's today, I think it may be as low as 1%. Humanity ate them up and the Bay is full of shyt now. Maryland and Virginia had Oyster Wars.
The Irish immigrant's promise in the New World was rewarded with being thrown overboard to drown at the end of the season and disposed of like a broken robot.
They built railroad tracks too part of their "Pay" was a 5th bottle of whiskey everyday too.
Nonetheless I dont see abuncha "Irish" folks walking down my streets in dreadlocks and all tattoed up "IGNORANT" cant "Reason" with em
