The Irish in America bit the bullet, overcame racism, accepted the freedoms in this country for what they were, and were a huge contributor in building the country. For about 100 years they have demonstrated their appreciation.
No reparations, handouts, or any other form of pity or legislated acknowledgement of helplessness or pity wanted or asked for.
