When do they become American?
At least 150 years ago.

I see it as divisive and inaccurate.
Were you offended when that NY fireman said "Osama bin Ladin can kiss my royal Irish ass!"?

If that same Irish-American went and walked down a street in Dublin, the locals would immediately recognize he/she as an American just from their gait.

Really - how do know this? And how do Irish people walk differently? Not saying they don't - maybe they do, maybe they don't.

Switching from Irish, do you think non-believing and non-observant Jews are not really Jews- i.e. that Jews are not an ethnic group as well as a religious one? Just wondering. I'm thinking that you are taking the position you are so you can make that claim.
