Talk:Jewish lightning

Offensive?

 * Possibly. In fact someone tried to claim that they didn't get a fair trial because the use of "Jewish lightning" may have biased the jury. That objection was overruled.
 * Here, the court found that there was no plain error, noting that the state did not use the term "Jewish lightning" in a manner that would invite of encourage the jurors to convict the defnedant based on his ethnicity. - American law reports. alr 4th. cases and annotations, 1989 - Page 761
 * Though I suppose that, as with most "offensive" terms, its in the ears of the beholder. 131.111.220.6 13:50, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
