Just as a side note;
You do realize the slur "WOP", usually used against Italians, meant "WithOut Papers". That's right. Folks from Italy who snuck past immigration, and entered the country illegally. Some of them came here running from the law and set up powerful crime syndicates once they got here. Mafia families that we still fight to this very day.
So my point is; We've been here before. Maybe not on the same scale, but we've been here.
Oh, and as I recall, we had the same thing going on with Cubans in the 1980's. So, I guess this is all Reagans fault?
