Its more an anti catholic thing i think that they had going on. All those irish, italian, eastern european, greek, puerto rican, mexicans, etc... are all catholics. Either roman or orthodox. At the time the pope was growing in power and people feared that if the catholic pope is not only a religious father but also a political emperor of a grand empire of loyal citizens who live within the confines of most the cities of the world. And that if a catholic minority grows enough in the US to be able to send a Catholic to the White House how would he act if the pope asis him to do something that may harm the US interests over the interests of the vatican. Many in the US had that fear back then. These people also had a higher rate of having ties to organized crime or paramilitary organizations. Anyway, more comics.
i like this let's do it would you rather... eat jamie mccourt's taint for 2 straight hours... or, have to wear a giants jersey to a dodger/giants game at the ravine
