Leaving the coasts somehow sets you up for experiencing overt antisemitism. In Arizona, I was genuinely asked if matzo contains the blood of Christian children and I was expected to pay most of the time since "He's a Jew, he's got plenty". In NOLA I was asked to leave a bar by patrons with swastika tattoos. In Colorado, at a conference (they were from NC, I picked up a "fan" who wanted to shout Nazi slogans and do the salute around me after they overheard me speaking Yiddish.
I'm so sorry you were attacked in NOLA, it's absurd that we have to put up with this shit. I truly hope we can be free from this stupidity one day.
America is fucked up.
My friend moved to Scottsdale almost 20 yrs ago. Had to give ID for something (buying booze?)
Saw her last name and refused service
Sorry you went through all that too. Yeah, this place didn't change. They all learned their place for a quick minute. They need to be reminded again.
