When the first Italian immigrants arrived at Ellis Island they were referred to as WOPS , without papers, our ancestors were undocumented aliens. The largest lynching in U.S. history occurred at the end of the nineteenth century and involved Italian American laborers in New Orleans, who were wrongfully accused of murder and hanged by the neck by a lynch mob when it was intimated that they might be innocent. Famously, Sacco and Vendetti were wrongly accused of the rape and murder of a small child and executed; less famous were the concentration camps for Italian Americans in World War II. Any Italian American who take the white side of the race issue oe the native side of the immigration issue is a sycophant or a fool. And that is the difference between Alito and Sotomayor.

Lange may lay claim to the bones of their ancestor? I'd love to enshrine one of my ancestors from time immemorial, and I'd imagine they would too. Sadly, we all know that these bones will spend the rest of their existence in a box labeled "specimen nr. xxxx," collecting dust in the bowels of some hallowed hall of higher learning. *Sigh* Though I must admit that they would, in all likelihood, be far better protected and preserved there, than in private hands.
