Maybe it's just me, but I'm not following you here. Does this mean that you grew up in a "racist" household? Are Sicilian's racist by nature? Or just your parents?
Or are you saying you were discriminated against because of your ethnicity? Is Hudson County a racist bigoted county that discriminates against Irish-Italians? How were the other ethnicities treated in comparison?

No one is telling you that you are not free to have your own view. However you "defend" it by repeating the mantra of the very people that can not accept any kind of criticism of their views. Honestly, you're probably more in danger of being ignored than being banned.
