Default Are Gays allowed to make anti-semitic remarks?

On last nights Apprentice, Clay made casual anti-semitic remarks, but Trump wouldn't fire him because Trump felt he was gay and thereby subject to derogatory remarks himself.

What do you think of this?

I think you got it wrong. Clay called a teammate a "tight-ass jew". He apologized. The teammate told Trump that he accepted the apology and did not believe that Clay was anti-semetic. That is why Trump didn't fire him (that, and the fact that the guy that *did* get fired deserved it).

Let me put it this way: If Trump had a real estate salesperson who was trying to sell a property and failed,
and came back to the office complaining about "cheap Jews"
this person would be fired immediately. If Clay was an
athletic hetero male he would have been fired as well as Marcus.
This is an example of how political correctness has effected even people like Trump.

If Clay had done that he'd have been fired too. As annoying as Clay was, firing Markus was clearly the right call - the guy can't complete a sentence.

Anyway, Clay's comments were in reference to Adam's lack of sexual experience. He never said "tight ass". And they were riffing off of Adam's own statement earlier about his personal background.

Clay will be next to be fired when he's on a losing team, but Markus was the weaker player. At least Clay tried to contribute to the task, unlike Markus.

In conclusion, the show is so absolutely stupid, I can't believe I watch it. But Rebecca is definitely the hot one. And Randall will win.

I thought that Clay said, "a tight Jewish boy" during the presentation. Was "ass" bleeped or something or did I just not hear it correctly? I thought Adam was claiming he said "tight-ass Jew" to make the offense seem worse.

Edited to add: Randal will win.

It was definitely calling him a tight Jewish boy, since he was so bashful about sex. Adam then invented all these anti-Semetic parts to it, implying he was cheap.

It's amazing how quick Jews are to jump on the anti-Semetic charge if anyone even says the word Jew. You'd think someone threw em all in an oven or something.

Only if Jews can make anti-gay remarks.
