    John Hughes was born in Co Tyrone, Ireland. Northern Ireland wasn't forced upon the people of Ireland for another 125 years after his birth.

      @davyholden us Northies get touchy about the North being referred to as Northern Ireland for obvious reasons 😂

    Born in the north of Ireland not Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland didn’t exist back then

    Hard to imagine animosity between Irish and Italian Catholics, same faith, different languages and culture but not a good reason for major conflict. Good to see that your background no longer matters.

      After a generation or two, the kids start marrying each other- things tend to settle down when you're facing them at weddings, christenings and wakes. I'm 2nd gen Irish- Dad was one of 10- 30+ cousins with lots of Italian in-laws...

    Probably the Irish women didn’t want us to marry the pretty Italian ladies.

    As someone else said, "If it wasn't for the Italians, the Irish would have never known they had taste buds. "
    I'm 2nd-gen NYC Irish with lots of Italian in-laws...

      Never liked the way they spoke about us..their contempt for us even came in to the mob films like The Departed

      ​@eibhlinnichrualoai don't expect good takes from people who bully leech off of, and kill people for an occupation. Italians didn't move up in the world like we did. Not our fault.
