An elderly gentleman of 83 arrived in Paris by plane.
At the French customs desk, the man took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry-on bag.
"You have been to France before, monsieur?" the customs officer asked, sarcastically.
The elderly gentleman admitted he had been to France previously.
"Then you should know enough to have your passport ready."
The American said, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."
"Impossible. Americans always have to show their passports on arrival in France !"
The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look.
Then he quietly explained. "Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in 1944 to help liberate this country, I couldn't find any Frenchmen to show it to."

Hmmmm... not very funny really. Have a look at the history of the French resistance in World War 2, and ask yourself whether the French did anything in the fight against Nazis.

It is hardly "mature" or "sophisticated" to make overgeneralized statements about ANY group of people.
FYI: I'm not French, but the only "mature" person this might appeal to is an ethnocentric elderly person who believes it's "patriotic" to hate certain Europeans.

Well, the joke's ok, but how pretentious are you assuming it's too sophisticated for some?
