In 2004, Banfield married real estate financier Howard Gould, who founded the carbon credit trading company Equator Environmental and is a great-grandson of railroad developer Jay Gould. The couple met in 2002 at Central Park in New York while Banfield was walking her two Westies and Gould was walking his two pugs. The wedding took place aboard a wooden yacht at the Royal Lake of the Woods Yacht Club in Canada.
The couple, who are now divorced, have two sons. She became a naturalized U.S. citizen on October 24, 2008.

Does anyone know how and when Kosher food was accepted in America?
Did Jews put up a stink about pork like the muslims do?
You beat me to it. What I type next is just going to be redundant, but I'm going to type it anyways.
It is the Koran!
A-holes abound in every group. We are all sinners.
The problem is that the followers of the Koran are bound by their book to murder, and destroy the cultures and societies that refuse to follow their book.
Atheists either don't get it, OR I suspect the real reason for their complaint, is that in their minds Christianity is the real evil (because it 'judges them') and they perceive muslims to be the enemy of their enemy -- so by all means, bring in as many as possible...
I have a Jewish attack. Cass Sunstein.
Throw that one out there and shut them up.

It's always been here. If you mean organized Rabbinical inspection including trademarks indicating facilities were inspected, I'd guess that grew up in the late 19th century as you got larger concentrated populations. Wasn't a matter of being accepted since Kosher food isn't much different to a non Jew as non Kosher food. Dietary laws are just that, they relate to cooking and consumption. In your example pork is forbidden to eat, but nothing else. Jewish kids can play football with real pigskins. And it's not forbidden to anyone else. Pork is sold in Israel.
CNN doesn’t think Arabs stabbing Jews in Israel is terrorism either. There is a reason why no one in Israel watches CNN, they are in the pocket of the Palestinians. Send Banfield to ISIS let them have some “Fun” with her
Why is it that we have become, somehow, “obligated” to accept immigrants? Why is it that it has become the burden of the United States to find a reason to reject an immigrant?
It used to be that the immigrant had to provide proof that they were worthy of entry into the US and had to demonstrate how they would enhance America with their presence.
I'd like to see the list. They attribute 15 to the JDL back in the 80s. I suspect they're including planned attacks which didn't come off. Like the one for Rep. Issa's office. For which the two heads of the JDL went to prison, where they were both killed within months. Not much of a comparison, and as most posters have noted, the issue is ideology, objectives and the breadth of it's appeal worldwide, not the existance of a single group at some time in the recent past.

List of 82 Muslim terrorist attacks or “honor killings” on US Soil. 46 of which happened since 2000
Who did the JDL attack? Was anyone killed? Did they attack people at random for the purpose of creating terror, or did they target only people or organizations who had targeted Jews and Jewish organizations? Not at all the same thing as the terror attacks carried out constantly around the world against anyone and everyone by Muslims.
That about sums it up. Plus the Torah and the Jewish faith do not instruct followers to murder non-Jews wherever they're found. The difference between people following the principles of their religion as opposed to violating them is lost on those who pretend to live with no religion at all while simply adhering to the faiths of Atheism, Humanism, or any of the others that deny God and elevate Man to godhood.
Persusoing the internet is seems doubtful that Ashleigh Banfield is Jewish. Her husband seems as though he might be part Jewish. I knew a Jewish girl in High School with the last name Gould.
But Gould can be “sourced mainly to Scotland, England, and Ireland” PLUS >>>
“Some think the Gould name may be Jewish in origin. It is not. Gould is a prominent Jewish name because Jewish names like Goldberg and Goldstein were anglicized to Gould. This occurred both in Britain and America.”

Was industrialist Jay Gould Jewish - Answers.com

No, he was a Christian. He was a lifelong member of the Presbyterian Church in Roxbury, NY. The Jay Gould Memorial Reformed Church in Roxbury is Presbyterian.
Common name, I knew old Jay wasn’t, but things happen. I often wonder about the hostility that sometimes comes from people with “unwanted” Jewish pasts. Kerry and Sulzberger come to mind. But then there are people like Barry Goldwater.
I think there were a couple killings attributed to them, bombings. They mostly attacked the Soviets, occasionally Arabs and even former Nazis. 7 deaths, could very well be true, though it’s hard to find a list of attacks on the web, and I don’t think many actually resulted in convictions.
The JDL was a terrorist organization though. Google Irv Rubin and you will see that he died in jail awaiting trial for a bombing attempt, IIRC.
Casper Sulzberger was pathological and nutty about being half Jewish and you know he promoted maximum prosecution of Jonathan Pollard. John Kerry just ignores it. Having two Jewish born grandparents. Partly because he was able to hide being half Jewish until about 15 years ago.
In fact the last name Kerry got him more votes in Massachusetts.
Goldwater only one quarter Jewish....... HOLY COW! He was actually half Jewish via his father. (Wikipedia)
His grandfather founded Goldwater’s Department store in Arizona.
“The family department store made the Goldwaters comfortably wealthy. Goldwater graduated from Staunton Military Academy, an elite private school in Virginia”
“Common name, I knew old Jay wasn’t, but things happen.”
Exactly. With the first name Howard and being in finance in New York City, my guess is Howard Gould is part Jewish somehow, someway.
I am surprised at how many 20-35 something actors and actresses are half Jewish when I look them up in Wikipedia. Scarlett Johansson for example. People are definitely curious about this (Jew/not Jew) and ethnic origins in general because Wikipedia caters to this by getting into it as best it can via its volunteer contributors
