I dunno whats worse, Irish or Italian people. Both like to talk mad sh*t behind close doors bout the boricuas and nigga. I dunno what the purpose of Irish are except for being comedy relief when they are drunk and stumbbling down the street and being team logos like the Celtics and Notre Dame. Ohter than that, I dunno what they are useful for. Atleast the greasy hair brick faced Italians brought pizza and pasta to the hood.

What have blacks given us? Exactly. Shut up with your rant about the Irish.

we gave you hip hop and carl johnson

omg i feel so much better now you give me that! (sarcasm) and it was probably some white guy working for rockstar created cj anyway

Despite the competition for jobs, many Irish immigrants supported and became leaders of union efforts, perhaps because they so well understood the power of organizing to meet needs. For instance, Mary Harris, later known as Mother Jones, committed more than fifty years of her life to unionizing workers in various occupations throughout the country. Her dedicated effort resulted in arrests, personal attacks, and many hardships but she also earned audiences with United States presidents from McKinley to Coolidge. 

New Deal appointments a decade later enabled Irish politicians to gain the national spotlight through judgeships and other federal positions. These appointments served as precursors to the future success of Irish-American elected leaders such as Chicago Mayor Richard Daley and President John F. Kennedy.

 

The great number of Irish who entered the United States from the sixteenth to twentieth centuries were changed by America, just as they changed this nation. They achieved lives that would not have been possible in Ireland, supporting their families and bringing a better life to their fellow Irish in the United States and in Ireland.

 

In turn these immigrants contributed to the "American culture" in many ways. They became political and religious leaders. They used their drive and charm (and their "way with words") to achieve special success in journalism, entertainment and sports. Popular perceptions of the fierce Irish temper, introduced such terms as "Paddy Wagon," "Donnybrook" and "Fighting Irish" to the American language. Among the early immigrants to the United States, the Irish are now assimilated in all aspects of this nation, but they still retain pride and identity in their Irish heritage.

Just to name a bit, you f*cking racist idiot. Being a proud Irish-Italian, your post was both infuriating and offensive. Then I remember that "Hey, I'm lucky enough to be Irish and Italian!" and again all was well in the world.

Racism is okay as long as it's directed to the wiggers and emos.

 

Flame me all you want, emos, but you won't change my mind. Wiggers, just drop dead.

 

Asshole!!!!!!I'm emo!!!!!!!!You racist bastard!!!!!!!

I think it's good that the GTA series finally got more mature, and actually showed a racist world. San Andreas had it a bit (Pulaski calling the cab driver a stupid Mexican for instance or Salvatore Leone calling CJ an eggplant piece of sh*t), but I think GTA IV took it to a realistic level. My real surprise came when Gerry actually said that he "didn't wanna work for ni**ers". That and the physics engine and acting really gave the game a movie-like feeling. Discuss.

Yeah, I remember it. They simply showed what kind of character Gerry was.

Hick/Redneck/Uneducated type.

 

A southern stereotype.

[Xamot]

when did people start calling goths emo's?

when the MTV told them to?

 

as a person who enjoys emo music from the early 90's (aka, actual emo music), i find the semantic ignorance of the teenage population annoying. the irony is that when people cackle and use the term, they really just expose themselves as being totally naive and unaware of contemporary rock music.

 

more than likely they'll be Hinder fans. and we all know that post grunge music sucks a fat nicotine scented trash cock. oh and My Chemical Romance and Panic at the Disco suck also... and those are just sh*tty pop/rock bands.

here's a tip... you and them, YOU'RE ALL f*ckING WHITE PEOPLE

 

is this 1945? who the f*ck still cares about the differences between white people? are you going to start bitching about catholics vs protestants while you're at it?

 

 

ANECDOTE.... occassionally, people will come into my store and say the following, "Do you mind a little jew? Will you come down on the price a bit?" ironically, every f*cking time, it's a poor, pasty, morbidly obese, smelly white person. not once have i ever had a jewish person haggle over a price.

I'll second that. Wiggers just plain suck. And Emos...don't get me started on those douches.

jump off a bridge, please.

 

 

OT: I liked how R* used the ethnic slurs in the game, it really did show how racist gangs can be. Racism is a huge factor in some gangs. (/ captian obvious statment*)

Yeah, we're all exactly the same. We share the same culture, customs and history. There is absolutely no difference between any of us. We're all just "f*cking white people"

 

Tool.

[mark3boyz]

Yeah it was nice to see the dialouge get an update. People called fa**ots and ni**ers and such. San Andreas type of dialouge just wouldnt fit in a game like this.

[bk112]

Gerry is a f*cking racist. f*ck him!

 

When I was told to kill Francis or Derrick... I KILLED GERRY. Yeah Bitch, WHAT? f*ck him and his KKK attitude

Blacks gave you the life to walk this earth. I can name inventions, but your life is worth more. Creating starter generators, motors, traffic signals or preforming the first open heart surgery in history is not enough for whites I guess. So lets just make it the most important invention, LIFE. Yeah I called yall out for talking sh*t behind people's backs. If it werent true you wouldnt be mad. And be grateful that a bunch of Africans migrated and lost their color just so you could be YOU and sit up here some thousands years later questioning the ones who made you possible.
