As my Irish grandfathers would say, “Green beer Irish”—they hated that stuff. They were the first people I ever heard call someone “abortionists”—which is what they called the Kennedys.
Maybe that's because it was a 'Chicago Thing' and 'Shanty Irish' was used most often. And it's not like I was kept indoors (We were always outside 'playing'), my 'old hood', was originally Irish (very close to Bridgeport), and I had a lot of fellow 'Mick' friends.
(Being called a 'Mick' never bothered me, thought it was kinda funny. Like 'so...?')
