By most standards of definition in use today, Jews are a race. In any
case, it's a disgusting comment not worthy of additional discussion.
Anyone who uses such a phrase denegrates an entire people.

Most? Maybe in NYC but not in the real world. Judaism is a culture and
religion. Most Jews today are of European stock having lost their semetism by
intermarriage over the millenia.

Yes, most. So, you now believe that Jews who live in NYC are somehow
different than ones who live in Kansas?

Denegrates? How about honors?? In a culture that values one's ability to
bargain, having that ability called by the name of your culture would seem a
compliment to me. It is only perjorative in the mind of somebody who thinks
that bargaining is dishonorable .... somebody like you????

Sounds to me like you have no idea what you're talking about.

Absolutely! Not only do I believe it - I know it for a fact. EVERYBODY who
lives in Kansas, or anywhere else, is different than people who live in NYC,
Jewish or not. NYC's unnatural environment warps ones sensibilities and thought
processes. Remember, when most Americans hear "NYC" they think "Get a rope".
