Does the Goulston Street Graffito eliminate Jewish Immigrants as suspects?

[Mark J D]

was it possible to even see what you were writing with white chalk in that stairwell at 2:30 am, or so[?]

Well, thank goodness that, in the finished result, there was nothing ambiguous about what letters were written or what the words were meant to be. You know, the kind of thing that would have meant different coppers saw different letters, and none of the combinations made real words. That would have caused so much confusion...

For me the if Jack wrote the grafito it suggests that Jack was either Jewish or wasn't Jewish. So in my opinion the grafito doesn't really help us.

Well that certainly narrows it down John

Until new information comes forth, its a waste of time and energy to argue one way or the other as to the rippers ethnicity, based on what we currently know about the Goulston graffito.

That is what John Wheat meant, and where warranted, it is always the right approach.

I know what he meant and I agree, my post had a '' to suggest it was made in a humorous jesting type fashion.. (To make sure)

It might be a waste of time to argue Ripper ethnicity. Its hard to imagine that the Eddowes apron and GSG did not occur together, in the same place at the same time on the same night. Possible but low odds. The value in my view, if value is the correct word, is that the killer must have had a reason to leave the apron where he did. If the killer took it a step further and left a message implicating Jews , iwasnt that already the case with the belief of law enforcement and the gentiles. The Jews must have done it? The Why here is the clue. I would think this speaks to motive. Unlocking an obvious riddle I believe this killer left. Was it a coincidence to find these 2 things together? Im not so sure.
