Italian Americans continue to think they’re a protected minority. That’s certainly true on Staten Island where they are actually given that status.

(It's actually a delicate issue for
#DCstatehood supporters. Key Italian-American, Catholic, & swing votes for#DCstatehood will likely respond poorly to rename, (eg@SenJackReed@SenWhitehouse &#NY25?). Although DC should wear its heart on its sleeve, this may be early.) -
Pffft. Blue states have no real interest in bringing DC to the statehood table. It’s all just talk.

I just re-watched the Soprano's Columbus Day episode the other day - probably not the best look for constituents!

Basing you idea of what Italians look like from a TV gangster show is probably not the best look.
