"The Most Irish Town in America?"

[Adalwolf]

Montana as a whole seems to have a significant Irish population.

Maybe it would be better to move this thread to the U.S.A-section. Irish Americans a.k.a Plastic Paddies are no real Irish.

If you said this to a Boston Irish IRA supporter, you'd get a punch in the nose. They're among the most political of Irishmen, and have done more to help Irish nationalism than most Irishmen in Ireland - not that I'm praising them for it.

Still. I doubt whether many Irish would consider them as such (they are called "Plastic Paddies" for a reason and if they would still Irish then they are hyphenated Americans AND Plastic Paddies) and frankly your ideas in general don't really interest me in the slightest.

Separation: Europe/America. Now.

Irish-Americans is one of the largest ethnic groups in the U.S.

The population of Irish-descended Americans is probably much higher given that there're many Americans who've got Irish ancestry who don't identify with Ireland (like me; I just call myself English/Anglo).

I thought German-Americans is one of the largest ethnic groups in the U.S.

It is.

Mellow out dude.

Plastic paddies or not, I am sure Ireland would be glad to be getting an influx of Irish-Americans, rather than all of the Somalians as of late. Phenotypic wise, they're no less Irish than the inhabitants that chose to stay.

Because you don't want to be reminded that your grandchild would never be seen as a Serb/Macedonian which ever you may be ?

Joe may claim some Dutch or English ancestry but I don't think that any of the Dutch here will consider him to be Dutch (I know I don't) - nor is it likely that English will see him as one of their own.

This shouldn't be in the Irish section. Have someone take it to the American section where it belongs.

I think that they would prefer neither one of them. No one cares about phenotypes. Foreign is foreign and right now they can't even provide work for their own population.

Civis, you just have this enormous superiority complex over colonials. It is sad really because all this conflict does is cause division between an already receding race. Exactly what the Globalists in fact, want.
