Now you are beginnig to sound like Bill the Butcher from Streets of New York.
The Chinese who came over during the Gold Rush were kicked out of the country. The Irish suffered many hardships as new immigrants to America, what they faced in Ireland was persecution and starvation. There was a strong Anti-Italian sentiment in the US and many left for Canada and Brazil. Each group (Indians, Pilgrims, Squatters, post Civil War immigrants etc etc) has their own story of hardships, each had a different set of circumstances. I don't see it as who faced more or less persecution.
