These jewish students were the european jews, like mort from family guy. Therenwas a mass influx of israelies to my town in my junior year and I had a completely all together different experience with them. They were more down to earth and settled disagreements like men, even the women which was really impressive--instead of "telling" on you or some other less than admirable way of dealing with strife. But as I got older the majority of the clicky stuff fell by the wayside and you get to know the individual rather than the group mentality of the click. Not to mention growing up christian our church had all these fund raisers for israeal and what not, so at home and to this day my mom quotes scripture about jews and cursing them and you will be cursed, bless and you will be blessed type stuff. So, to sum it up, hate is a strong word. Yes, I've had some issues as a kid but that's to be expected and the same kids from back then I'm tight with now. Funny thing is, and I just found this out and it was a mind fuck is that on my mothers side she has askinazi jew in her which explains her shylock nose and the texture of my hair. Anyways- anyone can piss off someone I guess is my point.

great post!
so do you believe in the 'ashkenazi advantage'?

It's an interesting theory. I first learned about it a couple years ago after Eric Garner was killed in article discussing whether or not there will be any long term implications for a group that has been forced to make ends meet (ie,'hustle) while on the margins. Garner if you recall was selling single cigarettes.
