Ethnic intimidation at porch parties is just sort of how Pittsburgh has always rolled.
“Hey, Yinz stupid Pollocks, dontcha know yinz has got yer music cranked-up too loud n’at?”
“Ahh, mind yer own bizness, ya drunk Irish jagoff n’at!”
Something like that.
I remember when the Mexican family next door had a big blowout. They were smart enough to invite us too.
The pozole was incredible.
I think it officially ended about six years ago when that white girl attending a mostly black party got accused of hitting on a black guy who was boyfriend to another black girl there.
The black girl demanded he prove his loyalty by taking care of the situation and he marched the white girl out to one of those long cement staircases where she was ordered to strip naked. He then shot her point blank in the back of the head and pushed her down the staircase.
He got off with jail time, as I recall. The girl, I think, got off with probation because she didn't specify the method. We palefaces need to learn that some animals are just more equal than others.
