Gee, I dunno. That you don't seem to get the outrageousness of that
remark is no surprise.

There'a a whole lot of things that Swill doesn't get...and that is no surprise to anyone.


Dumbfock. Was the statement incorrect? Nothing was said about political
correctness. Just if the statement was in error. You should not show
your stupidity so often.

No, not in any sense.

"It is widely recognized that the attributive use of the noun Jew, in
phrases such as Jew lawyer or Jew ethics, is both vulgar and highly
offensive. In such contexts Jewish is the only acceptable possibility.
Some people, however, have become so wary of this construction that they
have extended the stigma to any use of Jew as a noun, a practice that
carries risks of its own. In a sentence such as There are now several
Jews on the council, which is unobjectionable, the substitution of a
circumlocution like Jewish people or persons of Jewish background may in
itself cause offense for seeming to imply that Jew has a negative
connotation when used as a noun."

Some folks just want to be offended, or are looking too hard for offensive things.

Though the Italian settlements in St. Louis is now called “The Hill� to
be politically correct, nobody is ever offended if you ask where “Daygo
Hill� is. That’s where the family eating establishments are. “Daygo
Hill�. Gotta love it.



The pejorative is "Dago," not "Daygo." Crikey.


Maybe Tim was trying to be a little PC.

Do you have something against Jewish lawyers?



Nope. I don't inquire about the religious beliefs of lawyers, doctors,
accountants, et cetera. I have no idea about the religion of our lawyer
up here or my wife's lawyer in Jacksonville. I know what the religion is
of my accountant partner in New Haven, because I attended his Bar
Mitzvah and visited him at his parents' home many times, and his mother
kept Kosher. But in the 65 years we've been friends, we've never
discussed his religious beliefs or my lack of same.

My next door neighbor, Amin, is Muslim. We have coffee together at least three times a week. We
discuss his religion and compare it to Catholicism. No problem. Of course, we don't sit in judgment
of each other.

You should try it, you may learn something.

Whoops, I forgot...you're omniscient. My bad.

....

Dago, as in “Dah-goh? “ At least with my spelling you know how to pronounce it.

Did someone call you a name, Don, or are you simply exhibiting your level of maturity?

He went back to sleep.
