It discriminated against immigrants without violence.

Explanation:

The Know-Nothing Party was a party that was formed in America around the 1850s. They emerged as a secret group that opposed immigrants and the Catholic Church because they feared that the Catholics were more loyal to the Church than to their country. The party aimed to prevent the spread of the immigrants and the Catholic church into American politics. Violence was not a part of their discrimination, even though sometimes it broke out in the ballots.
