No disrespect to your ancestry, but having been called various variations of "filthy Jew" in the Soviet Union and "stinking Russian" in Israel (the irony was not lost on me), I would humbly suggest that perhaps the "scum" part was the offensive one.

You're Jewish!?!? So am I!! In fact as of right now I'm spending a year abroad in Israel! I thought I was the only Jew in the forum! Small world....
Anyways aside from that, isn't this getting a bit off topic? This is a TG captions thread, we're not here to debate about racism, even if someone was offended, it was obviously not done on purpose right?
P.S. Thank you Wandering Spirit for those six captions I've been waiting a long time for some good 'ol anime TG captions.
