When some parents allowed their kids to dress in concentration camp uniforms mocking the kadoshim from the shoah, there was near-universal horror and condemnation. While the two issues are not comparable, its important to remember that each ethnic group has its own visuals that evoke pain and emotional distress. There is a big difference between being politically incorrect in a humorous, satirical way and and outright and deliberate provocation where you know the painful consequences. If you cannot decipher that line, then go back and learn why.
