That's because people from NY are obsessed with race and ethnicity. It's all NYC's working class has. Especially in the boroughs. No matter how much of a loser in life one is, you can display a foreign flag and feel better about yourself and be part of a peer group where no one can deny you membership to.

I laugh at the people with the Yankees logo in red, white and green. It's a glaring example of the ethnicity obsessed NY mindset.
