    How many potatoes does it take to kill an Irishman?

    None.

    No potatoes doesn't kill an Irishman, but Queen Victoria endorsing Charles Trevelyan's laisse-faire policies of "continuing food exports and limiting aid to fellow subjects because depopulating Ireland was God's will" did.

    Well they will never learn anything if you give them handouts after their crop failures, what not with us shipping all their other food they grow elsewhere. /s

    It's amazing the language used, is exactly like the heartless politicians now taking away food stamps and medicaid and the like.
