The Jewish Group is like the African American group. Yeah there's a lot of weight on our shoulders in America - but we also can celebrate and have joy.

These *jokes* aren't funny.

I fail to find how it is funny or how it warrants a joke.

THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP. This is a place where Jew hatred and antisemitism is treated as a serious matter.

Mr. Ben Sho-shan was also arrested - supposedly for saying racist words.

An hour after the initial incident, Ben-Shoshan claimed that the man returned and tried to assault his wife, which is when he stepped in to protect her.

My husband is white, I'm Black. If someone attacked me being racist - they'd probably get a lot of racial epithets and fists thrown at them by my husband. He can be vicious when he thinks Im being disrespected or threatened.

So am I to understand that Jewish men are not allowed to go balls to the walls to protect their wives?
