    This was the line that baffled me the most !

    Was mcvey saying "Jewey" is a very offensive term for a Jew, even in early 1900s, and no Jew would ever stand for it .... and he knows this because he was married to a "Jewess" ???

    :lol:

    WTF.
    Was that some sort of touch of irony or a thought-provoking experiment or something ?
    Or just mcvey being mcvey?
    WTF really.
