Most Italians were perfectly decent, good people - Catholic. But from around 1900 - 1920, the Italian anarchists were responsible for the 1919 Wall St. bombing (part of the Sacco-Vanzetti gang) and endless bombs being mailed to politicians and judges. Eventually the famed (or infamous if you’re a lib) Palmer raids got rid of them by sending them back to Italy. Mussolini did the rest.

German-Americans and Italian-Americans overcame the leftist sentiments their forbears may have had in their native countries. For the most part, they are solid, patriotic Americans, on a par with colonial British descendants, except for the Ivy League WASPs in the Northeast, who shifted from solidly conservative to liberal in the last century. On the other hand, Irish-Americans are, next to the Jews, the most leftist white subgroup. Both Irish and Jewish people have long memories and grudges. They project crimes committed against their kinsmen on the other side of the Atlantic onto traditional American society.
