People of Italy are known for their olive skin and dark hair. However there still are Italians with blonde hair and blue eyes. The stigma that Italians are dumb is held up by shows like "Jersey Shore," but originally came from the Ellis Island days. Around this time, the IQ test was invented and someone had the brilliant idea to use IQ tests to test incoming immigrants. One supposed expert at the time stated that 75% of Russians were incompetent, 69% of Polish, and 67% of Italians. These people soon started getting jobs as butchers because of the stigma, introducing the polish sausage and Italian salami. -- I am Italian and do not mess with my salami!
