I find it quite astonishing that the Irish stereotype stuff continues, whilst every other one has been banned, cancelled or made a hate crime to so much as mention.
If you put posters up in your window portraying mexican/jewish/asian/etc racial stereotypes then you'd quickly have a brick thrown through it and the police turning up.
Yet somehow a Irish character who (as such) is portrayed as permentantly drunk and up for starting a fight is ok and on sale in most shops.

That’s because the Irish are drunk! And everything is funny to us.

I was so passed out from being drunk and getting cold-cocked by a guy who picked a fight with for calling me a fat, overgrown Leprechaun, that I didn't see this reply until now.
I mean, the guy was right, but he still had it coming.
