A man (merely by Webster's definition) in a Blue jean jacket with a big Harly Davidson logo on the back was walking around the store looking at the big screen TV's with his 7 - 10 year-old son.
Son, "That's a nice TV, Dad."
Man, "See that 99 cents added on at the end of the price? That because of those dirty Jews!"
Son, lovingly looking into his "father's" eyes, "Those Jews wreck everything, huh?"
What? I so wnted to roll over there and wish them a belated Happy Chanakkuh. (No, I am not Jewish.)
I was so angered by this. Yes, I know it exists today. But, this was just the first time that I actually witnessed it in real life. I wonder where his swastika was and if his son already had one tattooed.

Aw, man!
I hate that! I always debate whether or not to confront someone like that.
It's not the possible shouting match that bothers me as much as the kid's viewpoint.
Should they learn that their parents are bad people at such a young age?
Or will the kid's hate just be reinforced by their parent's humiliation?
When there are children around I usually just stick to disapproving looks.
And hate myself for not doing more. 
Ugh.

| despicable. I'm amazed at my workplace the amount of racism I see. People assume that because I'm white they can tell me racist jokes or comments. |

I *believe* she was due for an operation and some lengthy recovery time.
I can't swear to it though, since I never asked specifics. I probably should have, but I didn't want to be too blunt and nosy.
I hope she didn't think I didn't care....
Well, springhill, you're just going to have to go out and steal funny material from other people too!
Queen's counting on you!

I figured this thread would be evolving in that direction.

why not? its all free speech after all... and there are lots of what you characterize as "hicks" ... er... might as well take this all the way and offend the sacred..... Two amish women were picking potatos. one says to other " Dear Lord these two potatos remind me of my dear departed Jacob.." as she hefted two big potatos.. other amish woman replies " really?" " That Large??" "no" , says the first amish woman, " That Dirty!!"  |
