Mark Levin: Can I come schecht a cow in your living room, as long as I cover everything in plastic first? There’s nothing illegal about it, after all.

39, actually had you been paying attention all week you would have known there was nothing ileagal about shechting the itty bitty calf where they did.

As far as I understood from all the articles in ywn, it happened AFTER SCHOOL HOURS. So preschool kids were not there to witness this. Also it wasn’t done by hte school, it was done by someone who said he got permission to use the building. I’m not saying that what happened was right or wrong, I’m just saying don’t judge without hearing proper testimony from either side.

Shimen: part of the ‘big fuss’ on our part SHOULD be because now, every time a yeshiva somewhere else wants to LEGALLY expand on their property, and the zoning board they have to go to has heard of the Ramapo events, they just may give the yeshiva a harder time because of the blatant disregard the Bobovers have shown in Ramapo.

Again, the actions of the Bobover Yeshiva in Ramapo just may make it more difficult cv”s for other yeshivas to LEGALLY expand their buildings in locations very far away from Ramapo.

Do you care now?

The law of the land is the law – there is no reason for the Bobover Yeshiva not to follow the zoning laws – as long as they are not contrary to Torah.

“Shimen” unfortunately identifies himself as a big talmid chochem with his comment of having learned through shas quite a few times all the while that he comments with a terribly smug attitude full of obnoxious conceit and a very dismissive attitude not befitting any ehrliche yid let alone a buki b’shas.
I simply do not believe his self proclaimed status as a venerable talmud chochem and suggest he not continue on with his chilul H’ comments.

When will they be paying their public water fine? You use it – you pay for it..
Follow the laws of the land if you expect land, zoning and consideration to be given to your religious needs.
