That is hardly how the 20th Century bigots in Germany I was reffing to depicted Jews.
Anti-Semitic cartoons from Der Stürmer
As for how American Northerners in 1868 depicted the Irish, the Southerners and the Jews, you can look at this Thomas Nast cartoon.
And anyway, I notice that you didn't jump on Luis when he ALSO made a joke about the Cuban rowing team in the Olympics. While I doubt the tax dollars part is true, I thought the swimming remark was funny. Get a sense of humor. People who can't laugh at themselves aren't any fun. I don't get all annoyed when I get called a redneck since I'm from GA. It's because I can laugh about me and my fellow rednecks.
There is a world of difference between a good-natured Jeff Foxworthy style joke about "rednecks" and making a statement such as:
"Anybody that is a Southerner is a welfare parasite soaking up your tax dollars".
It is true that Southerners laugh at themselves for being "rednecks" and Cubans laugh at themselves for being "Cubanazos".
However, we Cuban Americans see no more humor in some people such as American Female falsely depicting one of the most successful and hard working immigrant groups in American history as welfare parasites "soaking up your tax dollars" any more than Southerners see humor in some people falsely depicting Southern heroes such as Robert E. Lee as "symbols of Southern racism".
I know that for a fact because I have spent considerable time on Civil War threads repeatedly defending Southerners and their heritage from such cheap shots.
When those cheap shots come, Southerners are in no mood to "laugh at themselves" and there is absolutely no reason why they should be.
If you want to read the history lesson on the reputation of Robert E. Lee that I gave to a Boy Scout leader from New England who believed that naming a Boy Scout Council in Richmond, Virginia after Robert E. Lee in 1942 was an act of Southern racism, you can read it in Post 138 on this thread.
