    You’re essentially insulting Irish people the way this guy is insulting you, by comparing blood and deciding who is most “pure”.

    That’s now what I am trying to do at all. I am trying to make the point that shared cultural experience is more important than distant ancestors and that you don’t get the right to call yourself something because some of your grandparents were immigrants. It’s something Americans seem to get caught up on that repeatedly.
