Granted I'm new (though I lurked for a while), but I felt bridgen went a bit too far in this thread, calling all Italians scum. A member with far more seniority than I felt the same way.

you are better off PMing AnandTech Moderator about this, but really, calling someone scum on the internet is really not that big.

I'm not down with anti-semetic jokes or those insulting anyone else on the basis of color or creed. Just calling it as I see it.

Nor is "American" any known or recognized race.
