As Jewcy regulars know, I have as much of a sense of humour as the next guy, but I don't find this news story the least bit funny. The janitor refusing to help paraplegics trapped in the elevator, or to call 911 when someone had a heart attack? What if that person had died? Really hilarious, huh?

Nor do I find it amusing that the city initially accused the family of not being Jewish. It's not only the janitor who should be fired, but whichever individual(s) made that horrible accusation.

Please understand, Elisa, that I'm not questioning the running of this story. But your choice of title, and your concluding quip about Richard Lewis were in poor taste.
