Hurricaines (that's how Crackers pronounce it)

 


As for Harricaines,  Mick has filed a complaint with the UN IPMR (The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Meteorological Racism)


These storms originate in darkest Africa and head towards America on sort of the same paths as the slave ships but us  poor white folks living on the Peninsula never had slaves whereas some of my people - the Irish- were slaves in America but you can not name one angry vengeful Harricaine that we formed  in Ireland and then sent on its way to  New England where many Irish were used as slaves ( they called us indentured servants).





In Perfidious Albion, slave traders met every day inside St Paul's Cathedral, conspiring to kidnap Catholic children and sell them as slaves in the colonies.

Kidnap(v.)

1680s, thieves' cant, a compound of kid (n.) "child" and nap (v.) "snatch away," which probably is a variant of nab (v.). Perhaps a back-formation from kidnapper, which is recorded earlier. Originally "to steal children to provide servants and laborers in the American colonies." 

Did us Irish hold a grudge about what happened, stomping angrily all over Ireland, kicking up revenge storms to be sent across international boundaries and cause such devastation in America?


No, we were happy the descendants of those who kidnapped us and sold us into slavery were kind enough to honor us by naming official vehicles after us, such as Paddy Wagons, which makes Mick think that if the establishment named, say, public housing, after slaves maybe Africa would quit the violent payback Harricaines.


Ol' Mick says that Washington DC should create a Chicken George Public Housing Complex and then maybe Africans would pipe down, calm down and  leave us poor Floridians alone and we would not have to put 3/4 inch plywood on our bathroom windows so we could poop in peace. 


Amen?
