4. I was the only Jewish student in my high school. Imagine what I went through.

The only saving grace I had that stopped most of the fights could have gotten into was I was the biggest, tallest, strongest student in the school as 6'2", 245 (at the time) and could bench my weight, squat twice my weight, and my arms were bigger than most people's heads.

Didn't stop the nasty antisemitic comments, the swastikas etched into my locker, at a six on one beating I got when I was 14 when the six yelled "Hitler missed one" and they were "going to finish the job Hitler started."
