NIGGERS SUCK ITALIAN DICK FOR BUST DOWNS! YALL DICK RIDE OUR CULTURE TRYING TO BE LIKE US! HAHAHA UGLY FUCK FACE GORILLAS! GANGSTER CULTURE ORGINATED WITH US! AL CAPONE...LUCKY LUCIANO ...CARLO GAMBINO ect.. BUT YET YOU SAY WERE TRYING TO BE BLACK??... HAHAHAHA YALL ARE FUCKING RETARDED!!!! DAMN!
Italians are hairy little lifeforms who like passing as White Europeans because it puts a severe burden in their heads to know that they're nothing more than a bunch of tan skinned Niggers who are not even useful as slaves.
the reason why italians left their country is cuz Italy is a horrible place to live, veyr low standards of living (almost the same as India), and unstable politics with corruption and all. But good for them, they're in the US now
@shirusubemonaku Compare Italy to India is something wrong and ridiculous. Although the Italian situation was now the same as in 1901, would be ridiculous and wrong. There is corruption in every nation, but certainly here know its shape and we can be able to recognize it, then reject it and fight it. The majority of Italians came to America were poor peasants from the countryside Italian parties (especially from south, Naples and Sicily) with hope to find luck and money, but during the years ->
@ElleBbi -> following the two world wars Italy has changed a lot, especially in the 60's, with "economic boom". Now is a country with problems, of course, problems related to Italian political class, but the common people is ok, despite the problems and lack of money.
I still don't get the fact that people are really that stupid. Please, to all the racists and bigots, look closely at all Italian artwork of the centuries. You will find all the characters in the depictions are caucasian looking. Paintings were the predecessor to the still image and the moving image right? If you disagree with the canvass picture of Italians as caucasians you have very serious problems. You referring to the racists and bigots, get a life, read, study, think! Like Italians think!
"White" is a more specific term for a group of Caucasians peticularly from the western north/western parts of europe ie; the UK, holland, germany, ireland etc. Usually more fair skinned caucasians, with light eyes and hair. Never the less Caucasians as a whole are a varied group spanning from western europe as far as iceland and as far east as Asia (russia, kazakstan, etc) including those from Europe's Mediterranean areas usually "latin" speaking ie; italians, spanish, portoguese. aLL CAUCASIAN
North Africans are not black they are Arabs. What is the difference Sicilians are not black some are extremely fair like nortern Europeans. Famous Sicilian Americans, Joe Dimaggio,Mike Piazza,Steve buscemi, Frank Sinatra, Al Pacino,Geraldine Ferrara,DeStefano the famous Tenor of the 50's and 60's, and many others. Why so much hatred towards a great race of people. Sicilians are no different from any other southern Italians. I guess you also think the spainards are black? Hey Obama is black. lol
@leitner561 black people any race that has something cool or sexy about them they think they got black in em and there considered black! i caint stand them BITCHES! THEY JUST THINK THERE SUPERIOR!
I never realized how many people have prejudicies towards Italian Americans. Despite all there contributions. I am half Italian descent and half German. I consider myself Italian American because they are the warmest people in the world. If you never had an Italian grandparent you would not understand. I strong family unit is a must for children to suceed. All you racists from disfunctional homes are a disgrace to this country.
@mrtundra45 Now that you said something good about your race and couture say something good when you on other people couture. Now that will be realy nice if you did that Mr.mrtundra45 .What I for chrismas!!! That you have a better way of thinking when comes to Def people,couture and race .Lets see if santa grants me that wish heehehehehI I will be happy man.
...and, Romans were not beaten, pillaged or ransacked by Germans. There were tribes that formed small armies that attempted to destroy Rome, but it never happened. Rome literally crumbled. It was fell apart from its own doings over taxation on colonies, the reduction of supplied material goods to colonies, break downs in administration of land tenure, break down in support of Armies. Italians no white? Goths, Visigoths, celts are caucasian. I look caucasian and I was born in italy to Italians!
Vandals=North Africans. Franks=Desendants of Gaul (Modern day France)
Goths and Visigoths=Spanish, Germans, Romans,Latins. Italians are white.
After Roman empire declined, very small Gothic settlements were made by Goths. There was no such thing as ''Germany''. There were federations or tribes, they consisted of Hungarians, Germans, Austrians and Spaniards. Most people that settled the Italian peninsula were all the above. Vandals settled in very small numbers in Sicily and Calabria...cont
Why do italians tend to be racist people? Many that I've seen said pretty racist things either in public or on comments also compared to other groups. Those type of people make it hard to break negative stereotypes. (and it wasn't just a few people, it was a lot). It's just an observation though.
Lot's of racists, but none of them have a Leonardo da Vinci, or a Cristoforo Colombo, or an Americo Vespucci in their heritage. Oops, America is named after an Italian. Go figure.
Italians and all mediterraneans, or like i call them "MUDiterraneans" are nothing more than inferior ugly looking mongrels who think too high of themselves, you know that you will always be inferior to the blue eyed nordic anglos, get over it niggers of europe
@MrInfamous82 You sound like a moron an Adolf Hitler like character. Obviously not educated. Who cares what people are mixed with ? Italians are beautiful people. Ask Robert Dinero. Although he only has 1/4 Italian blood when asked he said he considers himself Italian American. When asked why? He said "because they are beautiful people".
Seriously as someone who has lived around italians get over yourself.
What was mentioned here is applicable to any nationality.
Your just got inferiority complex, thats y u put others down.
You escaped poverty and went to places that had abundant food, along with civilised attitudes....enjoy it and accept the facts, by the way nice american clothing and cars you had :) Also colours real important ion cooking and food on table looked a little bland and lifeless....just like ur attitude :)
Wow this little Movie is so great and touchy.I´m a German of turkish descent and I think our people(the turks and the italians) have a lot in common .Greets to our italian Friends
Italians aren't pure. They're muds who are descended from the original blacks who ruled Rome and North Africa. Barbarian whites invaded rome and bred with the blacks, producing modern day Italians
@Bomber0907 FUCK NIGGERS BLACK BITCH! ITALIANS HAVE MORE MIDDLE EASTERN BLOOD THAN AFRICAN BLOOD! RETARD! THE MAJORITY OF US ARE CAUCASIAN! STUPID NIGGER HAHAHAHA! YALL ARINT SUPERIOR!! BITCHES!
@MrMontanarealtyco Actually your facts are slightly off. Sicilians have african and middle eastern blood because when they traded with them they also had sex with them. Us northern Italians dont have nigger and raghead in us lol.
Ragheads are Caucasian too. Recent data as proven Italians are mixed with ragheads and niggers. That's one of the reasons why Italy is such a burden for Europe. All that raghead blood must be paying off.
@MrMontanarealtyco Why were they soooooooooooo badly discriminated by the angol -americans OR anglo british Australianssssss????? Atleast in the begining.
@bigbob6556 Sicilians also have Viking blood,greek,French,Austrian,Spanish,Arab,Lombards from northern Italy, german and others. I am sorry there is nothing that says they have black blood in there history. keep watching True Romance. lol
@leitner561 Wrong. In roman times we occupied all of northern African you incompetent dipshit. Sicilians were the ones that watched the borders, and they fucked blacks. And you just listed off more reasons that Sicilians are dirty blood...dipshit haha
Italians rule!!!! For all you haters, you have nothing on us Italians, get over it. Go learn your history, cause you don't know what you're talking about. Fools.
Italians had jack squat to contribute to America. They just waltzed in after all the hard work was done by us white anglos. A bunch of tan skinned spiggers, who are not even useful as slaves
@lssgrs I wasn't trying to be insulting. I just meant that the video clips here looks like the videos of my dad when he was a kid, and he is Italian American , as am I obviously. Sorry if it came out wrong.
I am latino I love italians, I am colombian we have a lot of things like italianos specially been devoted catholic. not to mention the love for soccer. Viva italy and now I live in america I love america. GOD BLESS YALL.
As for the moors, well they settled in many european countries and that was hundreds and hundreds of years ago, including some parts of southern Italy, Spain and Portugal. Most settled in Portugal and Spain. Certainly no traces of moors in central and northern Italy as the Romans kept them south. But even still, southern Italians have mostly Greek, Roman, Etruscan and Norman lineage. Do some research before you make a fool of yourself. Lots of dark Irish people I know too, does it matter??
@Peridot120 You're right, I'm Italian and on my dad's side my family are descendents of Normans. So many ignorant people on here who talk BS about Italians.
Interesting comments by all. Finland is a tiny no nothing irrelevant country with little else to do but commit suicide because there is nothing to do or see and have to live in days of darkness or sun. they are weak and useless and are as exciting as watching paint dry. I have been to Italy and have actually seen more blond hair blue eyed people than I have seen in most of Europe. Some people obviously stay in there ice shack and decide to form there own made up bullshit.
@mrtundra45 NO IAM FROM FINLAND..!! AND YOU ARE A NIGGER LIVING IN A RACIST COUNTRY, AND MOST HATED ONE TO, GOD BLESS RUSSIA AND FINLAND..!! FUCK OFF NIGGER ITALIAN..!!
@TUENEMIGOVIVO scandonavia is where all the muslims and niggers are going to rape the blonde women infidels....lol...they are taking over your countries along with great britain. lmao!
enjoy sharia law....italy will remain a catholic state.
@mrtundra45 GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE YOU SILLY GREASY ITALIAN SLAVE OF THE NORDIC PEOPLE..!! ITALIY IS A MOOR INFESTED PLACE, ITALIANS ARE A MIX OF MOORS, JEWS, ROMANS, GYPSIS...... AS A YOUNG LAD I WALK IN TO A RESTAURANT WITH MY FATHER IN SWEDEN...AND THER WAS A SIGN OUTSIDE THAT SAID = NO DOGS, NO ITALIANS..!!
@TUENEMIGOVIVO IN SOCIETY ITALIANS ARE CONSIDERED WHITE! SO THIS SHIT YOUR TALKING ABOUT ON YOUTUBE IS MEANINGLESS!!!! ITALIANS ARE OF THE CACASIAN RACE! EVEN IF THEY HAVE A TRACE OF BLACK BLOOD IN EM!....THERE STILL PART OF THAT RACE!....RETARDED ASS! AND MOST ITALIANS DOINT LIKE BLACKS!!...............NUFF SAID!!
@MrMontanarealtyco YES ITALIANS ARE CONSIDERED WHITE, BUT JEWS ARE TO...SO FUCK OFF ONLY IN AMERICA THEY ARE BECAUSE IN SCANDINAVIAN COUNTRIES AND OTHER NORTHEN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES THEY ARE NOTHING BUT DARK MOORS..!! AND THAT A FACT LIKE IT OR NOT YOU FUCKING GREASY ITALIAN..!! THEY DONT LIKE NIGGERS BECAUSE THEY ARE ASHAMED OF THERE HERITAGE....NUFF SAID..!!
To Any italian americans reading this: Do you hate irish ppl or irish americans? Because some obnoxious little cunt(italian) from NY started mouthing off about ireland, and was just wondering do all italians hate the irish and other races in maerica or is that just a minority??...is there some sort of rivalry?
@MrSimo552 I've met plenty of Italianos who seem to have something against the Irish. not sure if you could really call it a rivalry per se but it's there. You see it primarily in places, like New York, with very ethnically divided neighborhoods.
@RUPERTDOUGLAS90 So you judge an Italian American from the gayest T.V. show in the world? Those aren't what Italian americans really are, those assholes bring a bad name to italian americans.
@RUPERTDOUGLAS90 LOL according to your profile you are a gay cowboy who fantasises about outlaw bikers and you like to "go swimming and play video games".......? LOL
lemme guess, your a fag who lives with mamma and doesnt get laid very often? YEAH -
@RUPERTDOUGLAS90 With a name like "Rupert".....I'm not expecting an intelligent thing out of your scumbag mouth. What the hell ethnicity do you belong to, you garbage eating, white bread, cracker eating punk!!!! Italians have achieved much more success than your gutter licking ancestors!!!
The food industry is dominated by Italians in Australia. Nothing to do with the mafia. These people are hard working, blood drenching and hand blister buster workers. And I mean they worked and own millions in assets, not one or two million, I mean in the hundreds. Now for some white prick fucker to say all Italians are in the Mafia and we are Spaghetti breakers, wogs, wops, guidos whatever. They should thank italians we made the world a civil place and a civil palace of existence.
..Arts festival that many Americans know of. They have literally built brigdes and highways in and out of Sydney. He is so wealthy it is hard to believe. All from the humble beginnings of a wheel barrow. In Melbourne, my home city, there is an Italian company that has attracted the Japanese to come in and take photos of its manufacture and industry operations as it is very advanced compared to Japanese standards. He is to wealthy he owns property in Italy, Japan America and elsewhere. Not BS.
@shubroto81 I am of Italian background. I am not mixed caucasian and Italian. I was born in Italy to Italian parents, but I live in the Convict colony known as Australia.
I would like to add that most Italian Americans in the Mississippi and Arkansas Delta are descended from rural peasants in Italy's Ancona Province. Those who immigrated here often began working as laborers on cotton plantations. Eventually they would buy their own land. Although they struggled for many years, many of them became quite prosperous after World War Two. Some of the wealthiest farmers in this area are Italian Americans.
@cbalducc Italians in Australia, the lucky ones had a monolithic impact. Sydney, Australia, is home to one of Australia's largest Building companies. Originally from Sicily-not in the mafia- he started working as a labourer wheeling a wheel barrow. He and his family of educated sons now have built and own, I mean own, properties all over the harbour. And I don't mean homes, I mean, multistory apartment blocks. They also run and sponsor the annual Sydney biennale. It is an international...
Italian Americans are not a monolithic group. Our ancestors came from different parts of Italy with different histories and customs. My paternal ancestors came from Ancona province, northeast of Rome. They settled in the Mississippi Delta, where I live. The stuff you see on "The Godfather", "Jersey Shore" ,"Mob Wives" and other movies and TV shows about Italian Americans and the Mafia is totally foreign to the Italian Americans who live here. God bless.
about most Roman Leaders being Homosexual...im not making it up,if thats what some might think...i seen it in History books and in the Smithsonian&National Geographic channel's.
@TheDanii77 You know jackshit about Hellenistic Greece or Classical Italy. Greeks were the foundations of what, the Acropolis? Read more books and stop relying on Wikipedia, if you know what it is. Greeks were important in some aspects of founding Western paradigms, but Romans had a great influence too. And if you don't like empirical facts , then maybe you and Mr Osorio, the Italian that has hang ups about being part Italian, should both hang yourselves.
@Johnnystrychnine the Greeks enjoyed being naked.... they werent prude by any means... warrior men would excersise naked and hunt naked.... greeks also had some strange superstiions about sexuality... but they werent gay.. they were known to dominate woman of conquered tribes and seduce them in wine feuled orgies. lol
...Italian novellas. Shakespeare was directly influenced by Italian Novellas, look at some of the titles of his plays. To those with hang ups about being bi-cultural Italian or Ameritalian, I pity you.
..character due to negative images portrayed through Fascism too. People change and cultures are influenced by others. I would rather have no freinds and be proud of being Italian and speak to other Italians about Italy's influence on the world. I would rather walk alone knowing that Italian and Roman history has had a magnitudinal influence on shaping the West, more than Greece. And I would rather walk alone with an Italian history book than Shakespeare, whose writings were influenced by Italia
It is very sad that to see Italians of mixed heritage have hang ups about being Italian due to prejudicial experience from rednecks or who ever it may be. Unfortunately the stereotype of the Italian gangster and mafia prevails damaging the reuptation to those that have developed hang ups about the stereotypes. Then there are people that claim to be your freinds but won't allow you to express your opinions or matters related to Italian culture and make on feel bad about Italy or the Italian....
Check it out. One of the handfull of Italian style espresso bars in Australia. Pellegrinis. In Sydney, Michaelangelo's in King's Cross, but I don't know if its still there. Mr Robert De Niro makes his way to Pellegrinis in Melbourne when he visits extended family (not BS) Not a promotional pitch. But many real Italians go there, or they used to. It was once an Italian worker's cafe. Now it is a major tourist hub and many Politicians go there too.
...Culture was unique. Rome was a multicutural society, unlike Greece. The Greeks were influenced by Egyptians and Babylonians. Some of the earliest forms of printing and engraving originated from Syria. Back to Rome. Unique in more ways than one. In literature, Politics. Romans invented the forums or what we know as the parliament in Australia, UK etc. The American senate is a classic adaptation based on the Roman model of Forum. Romans made politics their own. It had to be, otherwise no Empire
@OSORIOO How much of a Greek influence? You are Mr Professor Know it all. Roman foundations whether through slavery, citizenship, partcipation in the military, or Roman outposts were operated by Latins, Celts, germanics, Franks. Even though Rome had thousands of enemies, the Roman empire employed enemies to work for them too. They were offered Roman citizenship as so too were slaves. Greeks: Yes they had an influence, but that was during the City state phase, not in the republican phase or later
@OSORIOO I am quite content you wallow in ignorance, and that you are deprived of factual knowledge. And in some cases I would recommend to stubbornly intellectualy impoverished fools like you my sources of reading. But in this case I would rather see you as a foolish clown and I won't recommend anything. And considering ''Osorio'' is an Italian surname, and that many Uruguayans, not all, have some Italian heritage; I have this to say ''You are a very sad case'' My conversation with you is over.
@OSORIOO Bro you correct, but also wrong about a few things.... its true that Rome incorporated aspects from Egypt and Greece and Persia... but the difference is that Rome RE-vitalized these ideas and Spread Them throughout the known WORLD.... "the west" or western civilization, is a Direct result of the Romans traveling thru out Europe and the Mediterranean...north africa, near east, and the balkans. Specifically the Brittish Isles, where Romans conquered, and taught the Angles and Saxons
Why do American Italians call ''Pasta'' maccaroni? That is odd. Pasta is the generic term for variations of the Italian staple diet. We call it Pasta in Australia, in Italy they call it Pasta too. Why Maccaroni? That is so outdated!
Food. Italian food in Australia is the staple diet of those that appreciate real food and that are familiar with the ''Slow food revolution''. Google Slow Food revolution. It is an Italian idea. Australians love Italian food, but the rednecks still have a lot to learn about Italian history and culture. Something to be very proud of if you are Italian. "Italy was the birth place of modern Europe''.Italy was the first country to have introduced the age of machinery and the modern system of living.
...women. :-). In Australia, the main LOTE, Languages Other Than English, that is the dominant language spoken by non English people is Italian. There is a massive community of Italians in Australia. Now madarin is taking over, but that is a natural consequence of Asianisation of the globe. But Italians are the wealthiest people in Australia, that is no BS. Italians and Euros built Australia. Sydney: One of the biggest construction companies that has built the main infrastructures is Italian..
lmfaoooo macaroni and gravy wtf is this italian american shit lol...in toronto gravy is that brown shit you poor on turkey or chicken. In italian we say "la salsa" the sauce...my nonna (grandmother) will make for example "i fusili con una salsa rosso" fusili a type of pasta in a red tomato sauce (other ingredients incl. salt, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, other herbs if one desires) I dont know why american italians call it gravy thats some weird shit lol
@wopchop99 We call is sauce in the redneck colony known as Australia. But if you look at all the Italian labels of imported Italian sauces they translate as ''sauce'', salza means sauce. Gravy is an English product-term. But really what Italians contributed to the America's and the rest of the world goes beyond food. Italians brought culture, civic values that are a cultural principle of the Romans, Roman law and Roman philosophy. Language. Literature. Roman and Italian ingenuity. Beautiful..con
@OSORIOO Considering most of my readings are non-fiction history, related to Roman or Italian history, it appears I am being corrected by you that has a smattering of knowledge on almost nothing. When I say that Latin literature has shaped Western thinking, as so too has the Italian language, why are you arguing on the contrary? Between, the 1500's and 1750's, Italy and the Italian language was like what America is today. A big melting pot of influences and learning. Are you jealous?
@Johnnystrychnine Thats in the 1500 and 1700 hondreds but before, the Greeks where the one who brought Civilization into what now is Europa, Rome always looked up to the Greeks, they all want to be like Alexander The Great, and even the Greeks where founders of the Roman Empire because Greeks lived in what now is Southern Italy.. Just fact and no Jealousy
@OSORIOO Alexander the great was Macedonian, and he borrowed from the Greeks. Romans were not Greeks. Romans were a mix of Etruscans, Spartans, Celts and Greeks. Rome created itself, it may have borrowed from Greeks, but they made what they borrowed Italian-Roman. Rome was a culture of its own, besides Romans spoke Latin not Greek. Greeks didn't found Rome, OMG, they set up what were literally villages, townships. It was a three phase development, City state, Republic then Empire. Roman...
@Johnnystrychnine You are wrong, Macedonian is also a city in Northern Greece if you did not know, and where did the Spartans who lived in Roman/Italy came from ?, and Celts where enslaved by the Romans just ass Greeks, Gaulic, German, African, Arabs, Indians & Persians.. And Rome did not create it's self, just look ate the architecture, costums, gods it's simply an rip off and not borrowed, but still i have much respect for Rome
@OSORIOO It's a rip off now is it? That is why the western world has been influenced by Roman and Italian culture. And you are implying Italians are not original. Please go back to your Wikipedia searchers, as they generally lack in substance, a bit like your arguments for Greece. You are Greek, and I don't care If I have assumed you are, even if you are not.
@OSORIOO Wrong again, there was no civilisation before the 1500's, that is why it was called the dark ages. And Greeks had no influence what so ever on what ever you are rambling about. I repeat, between the 1500's and 1750's the world of learning, music, art, inventions politics etc centred around Italy. Not Greece. Stop insisting the contrary. The Greek influence stopped after Rome took over the Western world of Europe. And since then the Greeks have done nothing.

As for the moors, well they settled in many european countries and that was hundreds and hundreds of years ago, including some parts of southern Italy, Spain and Portugal.

But even still, southern Italians have mostly Greek, Roman, Etruscan and Norman lineage. Do some research before you make a fool of yourself. Lots of dark Irish people I know too, does it matter??

I would like to add that most Italian Americans in the Mississippi and Arkansas Delta are descended from rural peasants in Italy's Ancona Province. Those who immigrated here often began working as laborers on cotton plantations. Eventually they would buy their own land. Although they struggled for many years, many of them became quite prosperous after World War Two. Some of the wealthiest farmers in this area are Italian Americans.

@cbalducc Italians in Australia, the lucky ones had a monolithic impact. Sydney, Australia, is home to one of Australia's largest Building companies.

He and his family of educated sons now have built and own, I mean own, properties all over the harbour. And I don't mean homes, I mean, multistory apartment blocks. They also run and sponsor the annual Sydney biennale. It is an international...

Italian Americans are not a monolithic group. Our ancestors came from different parts of Italy with different histories and customs. My paternal ancestors came from Ancona province, northeast of Rome. They settled in the Mississippi Delta, where I live.

...Culture was unique. Rome was a multicutural society, unlike Greece. The Greeks were influenced by Egyptians and Babylonians. Some of the earliest forms of printing and engraving originated from Syria. Back to Rome. Unique in more ways than one. In literature, Politics. Romans invented the forums or what we know as the parliament in Australia, UK etc. The American senate is a classic adaptation based on the Roman model of Forum. Romans made politics their own.

@OSORIOO How much of a Greek influence? You are Mr Professor Know it all. Roman foundations whether through slavery, citizenship, partcipation in the military, or Roman outposts were operated by Latins, Celts, germanics, Franks. Even though Rome had thousands of enemies, the Roman empire employed enemies to work for them too. They were offered Roman citizenship as so too were slaves.

@OSORIOO Alexander the great was Macedonian, and he borrowed from the Greeks. Romans were not Greeks. Romans were a mix of Etruscans, Spartans, Celts and Greeks.

@OSORIOO It's a rip off now is it? That is why the western world has been influenced by Roman and Italian culture. And you are implying Italians are not original.

@OSORIOO Wrong again, there was no civilisation before the 1500's, that is why it was called the dark ages. And Greeks had no influence what so ever on what ever you are rambling about. I repeat, between the 1500's and 1750's the world of learning, music, art, inventions politics etc centred around Italy. Not Greece. Stop insisting the contrary. The Greek influence stopped after Rome took over the Western world of Europe. And since then the Greeks have done nothing.
