Obviously, this is a not so sneaky way of saying "Kill the Jew."


I understand how this was upsetting, but I have seen slang usage of
"joo" = "you" frequently among some folks...


You are correct! I had not thought of that. However, the handle
would then mean "Kill the you?"


Not "kill zee you" but "killz you"="kills you".
