Ivor Caplin and other members of Brighton and Hove's Jewish Community are right to protest over the proposed visit to Brighton of Scott Capurro after the comic's recent anti-semitic jibes and insulting jokes about the Holocaust (Argus, August 25).
Such feelings of revulsion are shared by all decent-minded people whatever their race or creed.
The Komedia spokeswoman's futile attempt to justify this act on the basis of Capurro's Jewish background is lamentable and portrays a lack of understanding concerning the fate of more than six million Jewish men, women and children during the Second World War.
