including those made by this jackass, Marino, with terms such as, “I got jewed, Jews are cheap, tight, etc.”

As I grew up, what I observed, it wasn’t Jews that were the “stingy” ones. In fact Jews as a demographic are more generous, and give more to charity, and volunteer their time per capita, than just about any other ethnic or religious group in America, regardless of their income level

This reminds me of a quote attributed by Mahatma Gandhi:

“I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”
