I Hate the Jews

This From LA times via atrios
I am a high school teacher and the daughter of Holocaust survivors. Monday morning, Period 1, a student, age 17, comes into my room. She asks me if I had seen the film "The Passion."
I answer, "No."
She continues, "It was so sad. I cried so much. I hate the Jews."
Very, very sadly, that tells the whole story, Mr. Gibson.
Anna Paikow
Well, Anna, that's what education's for. Do some. Start simple. Diary of Anne Frank, perhaps. Schindler's List. Nuremburg Trials. Holocaust Museum.

You've been handed a teaching moment.
Do your fucking job instead of whining to the newspaper about how much hatred Mel Gibson's film inspires.
