Is this quote about Irish Immigrants from the 19th century or about present-day immigrants?
...their chief characteristics were treachery, thirst for blood, unbridled licentiousness, and inveterate detestation of order and rule.
— Patrick Francis Moran (1830-1911) in his book, "Civilization of Ireland before the Anglo-Norman Invasion", Source
You are correct!
You are incorrect!Don't Let Today's Know-Nothings Decide Our Immigration Policy!
The 19th century "Know Nothing" Party tried to spread fear about Immigrants coming to America from Europe, including Ireland. This might seem like a thing of the past, but some members of Congress are using the same kind of fear mongering to spread the myth that immigrants pose a threat to the US.
In fact, just like the Irish immigrants of the 1800s, today's immigrants assimilate at a rapid pace, don't increase crime, and stimulate the economy. These modern Know-Nothings are making the same mistakes as their predecessors.
Send a fax to the modern Know-Nothings, and tell them to stop repeating history.
