Yea exactly. Imagine being met with a sign like that everytime you willing and happily went looking for work?? They had just left their homeland because they were starving to death because of the famine and when they do get to the States and wanted to work like dogs they were denied the chance to by bastards. I can totally understand why they set up their gangs. It was for survival. They wouldn't have lasted very long on their own in a foreign country who's natives hated them before they even stepped off the boat. So they formed gangs for protection and survival. Sorry to be going way off topic here.
