I guess a lot of Irish people (like, people from Ireland haha) find it offensive and racist. But to be honest I have a hard time feeling sorry for caucasians trying to play the racist card.

why? you think only black people are subject to racism?

Only black people? Hahaha no... Of course white people have been subject to racism, sure. But the suffering that white people may have faced that directly has to do with racism has absolutely no comparision to any other race group.

well the irish were enslaved and starved and beaten...so there's that

I know they were...I'm not saying that white people have never suffered. But nevermind, this topic is way too heavy to be discussed on this forum.

well played

St. Patrick's Day is a celebration of the man who began the conversion of the native pagans of Ireland into Christians. I wonder how many people even know this, given how deeply secularized the holiday has become.

Also, I didn't do anything for the parade today. Afterward, trying to get to dinner with Missy and her parents, the drunken assholes clogging the streets had me ready to blow my gasket.
