Thread Name: NON IRRITATING JEWISH JOKES
Subject: RE: NON IRRITATING JEWISH JOKES
Hi, You can call it whatever you want, but getting a cheap laugh on the basis of your own shallow and limited stereotypical perceptions of someone else's ethnic background is pathetic, and ignorant.

I have heard and read more than my share of jokes ragging on Jews, Blondes, East Indians, Newfies, Poles, Blacks, Gays, Lesbians, Irish, Scots, Italians, Women, and Men,and they all share the same basic attitude of pointing why people not like YOU or YOUR GROUP are inferior.

I don't really enjoy pissing on your parade, but this really a load of crap. You can pretend to be clever and witty. Some of your best friends may be Jews. If they are, they should find new friends. Some of the entries may be from Jews. If this is so, I'd suggest that if you really want to kick someone's ass around the room, then make it your own, please.

I have read some amazingly insightful entries on this site, and it is sad to see it debased with things like this. If you do find these jokes amusing, aren't there other places on the web where you can find like-minded people with whom to share racist humour? Surely we can do better than this at Mudcat, can't we?
