I grew up in a neighborhood that was mixed, Italian, Irish, Polish, German, Greek, etc. Many Families were the generation that immigrated, 1st, 2nd, & 3rd generation in the same household. So yeah, I can understand your point exactly. Me, being of Italian and Irish decent, when the Irish guys and the Italian guys got into a fight, I'd go easy on myself! One of the best parts of growing up there, was that there was always an open invitation to stay for dinner. Got to enjoy authentic Polish, German, Italian, Greek, and Irish food. What a wonderful place to grow up. Sadly with gentrification, that neighborhood no longer exists.
