Can somebody please look up what a zimmi is for me. It is probably a derogative term and is probably related to islam. Thank you in advance.

No. You obviously have a computer with internet access. Do it yourself.

A Dhimmi is someone who is non-muslim but living in an Islamic state or a caliphate. They are(or were) subject to sharia law, and usually did not have equal rights to those of muslims.

Wiki says they are the same.

Usually it is used nowadays by stormfront types to label people who do not agree with their views of islam

If it was that important why wait on a bunch of forum goers to read your post ... then go to google and or wikipedia? its not exactly complicated and you could have found the information FASTER.

I'm too lazy to type, so I have a "scribe" to type for me.

It seems like the sort of word that could pwn in Scrabble.
