we had a guy working for us who thought that jews were just cheap folks.

i also know a woman who thinks lincoln was the first president of the usa and that anti-semites are people who don't believe in god.

When I was in about 6th grade, there was a girl in my class who said that Jewish people had tails. She truly believed this because her grandmother had told it to her and she knew her dear old gramma would never lie.

Up to that point in her life, she had never knowingly met a Jewish person.

was it a black tail?



I mean, maybe one of the owners or investors is Jewish but that's it

Dunno, but the whole class got a good laugh out of it.

I guess ignorance isn't always bliss after all.

I bought one for $1.98. Did a real good job on my pyramid, too.

that's "they'll be calling you a radical / a liberal / a fanatical / a criminal"

My first year in college, I took one of the 100-level history classes that were required if you wanted to graduate four years later. I wanted to get that stuff out of the way early, so I picked a course about the first half of the 20th century because I knew it would be easy. Everyone else in the class was a senior who had put off the boring requisite courses until the last semester of his college career.

The professor was an affable Scottish guy who seemed to know his stuff...but then again he should have as it was all relatively recent history, including two World Wars. Who didn't know about this stuff?

In the second half of the course we got into the roots of WWII. The professor had just spent most of the three-hour class rattling off the stuff you'd expect to hear about Hitler's rise to power - the Beer Hall Putsch, the Reichstag fire, Kristallnacht, etc. - and one of the seniors raised his hand and asked, in all seriousness, "If the SS and the SA were so powerful, why didn't they fight the Nazis?"
