The story on the main site says the kids were only yelling at him and did not touch him.
And some of these kids don’t listen to any rabbis. They are out for a chill and couldn’t care less if the rabbis are against it. The rabbis can (and do) talk from today until tomorrow against it, and these hang-out kids don’t care or listen. There’s nothing the rabbis can do. So, please, do not blame them as they bear absolutely zero responsibility. No more than you do. These kids are as apt to listen to you as they are to the rabbis who they do not take direction from despite what you may think.
