Really?  What a naive and fragile little teacup you are.  We Jews have been taking crap everywhere we've gone for thousands of years.  Why would it stop now?  I prefer this incident to liberal college campuses pushing BDS on students who don't know any better.

And who expects perfection in any community anyway?  Inappropriate behavior like anti-Semitic jokes happen in every community, especially ones filled with teenagers.  What matters is how the community responds to that inappropriate behavior.  STA responded forcefully but thoughtfully.  You bringing it up to bash STA makes you look bad, not the STA community.[/quote]

I'm not a STA parents but I agree.  Yours is a very reasonable post & approach.  I think you're absolutely right that even in strong communities (school or otherwise) with many good, well-intentioned people and ethical values being modeled and taught, things happen and it's the response of the community and the leadership that is important.[/quote]
