Translation:
-It’s not my fault, I am a product of my environment;
-Don’t harp on what I’ve done because I’ve already taken steps to change it;
-This is a learning experience for me (you don’t nail people who are learning, do you?);
-I’ll channel my anger into Democrat politics. See, I’m doing the right thing.
Uh, we’re only 6 years apart in age, Harvey, and I grew up for years in the same neighborhood you did. You lived in Electchester? We were right across Parsons Boulevard in Pomonok. So maybe your “this was the way things were where I grew up” crap will fool a few people. But not me.
And that gratuitous reference to your bar-mitzvah? Was that added in the hope that some anti-Semites would respond negatively and give you the chance to say “see, they’re only after me because I’m Jewish”?
I’m Jewish too, Harvey. My bar-mitzvah was at an orthodox shul less than a mile from Electchester. And the thought that you are using your religion as a strategic tool makes me sick to my stomach.
I’d write more, but I think I need a shower. And you need an enema.
