the way the Irish are portrayed

I have to register my indignation, my outrage at the way the Irish are portrayed in comments here as rowdy drunks. I would hope that in this day and age we could transcend such cruel stereotypes which demean the soul of these fine people, with whom I have shared so many a glass of beer and shot of whiskey in bars in Chicago. hic

Top o' the morning t' ye, Glories! All Milady's family are Chicago Irish Catholic. So, I guess, are my kids - Irish, anyway; we're not so Catholic and certainly not Chicago anymore. I'm Irish by marriage.
