I liked this series until this most recent theme. The annoying character is drawn with stereotypic Jewish features -nose, short stature, thick glasses, hair- obvious to anybody who ever saw Nazi caricatures of Jews. Then the Obnoxious One comes out with the disgusting “you people” line which is a characteristic anti-Semitic slur. I know. It was meant to show how Hispanics are victims of prejudice. It would have worked if the Obnoxious One had been drawn as tall, white, and rednecked.
SO much hate here. Some people have lost their business and all of the money they invested for standing up for their beliefs yet people who oppose other tenets are treated brutally and no one says anything in the PC community. This isn’t about PC it’s about human decency. The people who lost verything had recieved apologies from other members of the community that caused their grief.

Thank you, Rod. I don’t think I could have taken another day of that hate and racism.

My dad owned his own business and believed there were customers that were bad for business just having them in the shop
He threw more than one person out, at least one of them physically

Rod stood up for his help or is it because he is Latino too ?
