  1. First they ask for police protection and then they try to break the law, they are not out to reach to HaShem, they are out to bring anarchy to religious observance.

  2. Its a shame the media is still fixated on these women who have a misguided sense of how, when and where they can express their “hashkafah”. It would be better to just ignore them than continue to provide this PR, which is what they really want.

  3. If they really truly are serious about it, why do they only try it on a weekday? They don’t go there on shabbos cuz there are no cameras.
    Ergo… Not serious
