But what social settings serve the basis. I certainly have a different filter when, for instance, I'm having dinner with a partner and em's spouse then when I'm with the boys. Which line is the line for broadcast?

That's what the Catholic's were saying as they waved good bye to the Jews.

Originally posted by Not Me I don't think any discrimination against italians compared to the discrimination that the jews have encountered in this country. True, the jews were more persecuted in europe than in the US, but there are parts of the US, like the south, where jews faced quite a bit of discrimination.

Italians and Irish faced similar degrees of discrimination, and just slightly less than the Jews. The only part geography played, and still plays, in respect of discrimination is the way in which it is displayed. Northeasterners tend to be bigots only behind closed doors. Southerners are more upfront and honest about it.
