Comedian Jackie Mason used what some say is a racial epithet in describing President Barack Obama during his act Thursday night, infuriating at least several people in the crowd.

During a performance at Feinstein's at Loews Regency in NYC, Mason referred to Obama as a “schwartza” — some say it's equivalent to the “N” word — others say it's just part of the Yiddish culture and a literal translation of the word “Black.”

CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — Shomrim members checked out a call for a sighting of Terrence Nelson, the one accused of terrorizing vehicle owners in Crown Heights, and consequently encountered a much more serious call just across the street.

A Bochur approached one of the members who was staking out the alleyway while others were inside checking it and alerted him to a Black male who was climbing onto the back porch of a Montgomery Street home.
