>Think though how horribly the Irish were treated.

They were treated horribly to get them assimilate which they refused to do. They used to raise their kids speaking Gaelic instead of English. The thing that finally caused assimilate was cutting off immigration in the 20s and 30s which dried up the supply of people from the old country.

Guess we still have the same problem.. The immigrants don’t want to assimilate..
