Mistreating Catholics

The Catholic are very well know in the United States and around the world but back then it was not. Catholics were discriminated by many different group and different types of people. Citizens who wanted to practice the catholic religion were very hard for them because they were not accepted and could not really do much about it ether.

In British history the Catholics were not treated fairly in a series of laws during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. After the Reformation, Roman Catholics in Britain had been harassed by numerous restrictions. In Britain, Roman Catholics could not purchase land, hold civil or military offices or seats in Parliament, inherit property, or practice their religion freely without incurring civil penalties. They also could not vote.

A person who came from other countries like Ireland and wanted to practice the Catholic religion was very hard to do since the Ku Klux Klan was agents them and controlling them and so did other groups as well. They would burn there houses and mostly everything they owned and leave them homeless. These groups also fought and killed many Catholics. People believed that by practicing the catholic religion they were destroying the United States.

Catholics in the states had a hard time when they practice their religion. They were discriminated by many groups like the Ku Klux Klan they only accepted the pure white and by the Protestants. The KKK has done many things to the Catholics and made their lives the worse but they still fought though it tills the end.
