[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it's acceptable to be anti-Semitic on the DC council then why is it problematic to be racist or classist?[/quote] It is not acceptable to be anti-Semitic on the DC Council. Next question?[/quote] It absolutely is acceptable both to voters and to Trayon's fellow council members, who did nothing to sanction him.[/quote] What practical repercussion is there on a sanction? [/quote] As a hypothetical exercise, let's say it was Charles Allen who said Jews control the weather instead of Trayon. He would have been kicked off the Council, and you know it. Instead, we basically got "well, Trayon doesn't know any better so it's okay for him to say such things." In most liberal places, saying something as hateful and anti-Semitic as what Trayon said would be grounds for immediate dismissal. If I said that at my job, I would be fired, deservedly so. [/quote]
