'Inappropriate in today's PC culture absolutely, but to Jew someone down is a verb and is not anti-anything or indicative of hating Jewish people.' Robin Vaughn said.
The president of a Trenton, New Jersey, council earlier this month said her city's assistant attorney was able to get the most out of a personal injury claim against the city, as they settled at a lower amount because they were"able to wait her out and Jew her down."
When later pressed to answer if she used derogatory marks in the closed session, she said she would not comment on"hypotheticals." New Jersey councilwoman Robin Vaughn said the term"Jew down" was a negotiating term, and that it held no hatred or ill-will after a fellow city leader used the language following a lawsuit to get a lesser settlement in a lawsuit with a resident.Vaughn said she did not exactly remember McBride using the term.
"As the Mayor of this City that encompasses diverse communities of racial, ethnic and religious backgrounds, I find this to be offensive," Gusciora wrote in an email obtained by."This anti-Semitic remark, particularly about an attorney in our law department who happens to be Jewish, should have no place in our public discourse. I hope that after some reflection you would apologize for these remarks.
