I have neighbors who don’t invite my kids over… It’s sad but true that anti semitism lives and breathes. Good for you for talking back and writing this.

And we should be able to watch other groups of people on film without “perpetuating the stereotype”. Why can’t we chalk it up as education?

I am so glad you said something, which I’m sure wasn’t easy to do.

I don’t understand how people can be anti Semitic, racist or homophobic. And they see nothing wrong with it. Boggles my mind. Unfortunately we can’t control what other people think, most likely someone in that person’s life taught it to him. But I can teach my own children to not hate someone or a specific group of people just because of their religion, race or sexuality.

The fact that this sentiment exists in 2012, in New York, and that the person feels he has a right to express it? Makes me so, so sad. And your college experience is horrifying. Fortunately, I’ve been spared so much of it, so I have the luxury of thinking that people who espouse those views must be insane
