Ben's response:

Jackie Mason has an angry streak, too.

He is a very funny man.

Repeating: Every group, race, ethnicity coming the U.S. has been hated including the Mayflower English.

One example: The Mormons were hounded across the country. All they wanted was a few wives, as it is told in The Bible.

I do not favor that.
