Have it your way.

Evaluate your reaction to the following:
1) I don't like turkey.
2) I don't like the French.
3) I don't like the Jews.

Did you notice anything? Why is it OK to say that you don't like the French, but not to say that you don't like the Jews?

It isn't OK to hate a whole ethnic/National group.
I like a lot about French culture. I used to be fluent in it. However, thier political culture is suicidal.

Nice try, but it still isn't accurate. I belive I used the term "Pity", not "Like"...

So, to have it my way, it would be more accurate thusly:

Evaluate your reaction to the following:
1.) I pity turkey.
2.) I pity the French.
3.) I pity the Jews.

Did you notice anything? Why is it OK to say that you pity the French, but not to say that you pity the Jews?

It just doesn't work for me, ya know?
