Just like all problems, and all nations, we’re also affected by drug problems. in fact here in Monsey up until a few months ago, there was a very cute young man that would approach people around grocery stores looking for rock man is schnorring change, and it would make the appearance that he needed something to eat but I could see and smell an addict a mile away so I approached him once and I asked him hey kid do you want me to take you to a narcotics anonymous meeting ? and he’s like “if you give me money to buy my crack, maybe …….”
so I was like shaefelah.. I can’t give you money to hurt yourself But if you’re hungry, I’ll buy you anything you want in this grocery store the kids or the guy died about nine weeks ago of an overdose. Very very sad. His name was Chaim.
