    Hey shlump – Who says they are infected? Maybe it’s an allergic reaction?

    If most things just went away by themselves -we wouldn’t need med. professionals. Unfortunately they don’t -9 times out of 10 they get worse. So go see a medical professional.

    “such as?”

    Such as women taking their kid to school and not dressed the least bit Tzinus. Read my posts under 8 year old etc…!

    soliek -“and the only thing he apologizes for is for doing an interview on TV and the only peopel to whom he apologizes ARE THE MEMBERS OF HIS OWN COMMUNITY, that sends a terrible message and makes our allies think twice about supporting us.”

    I’m all for peace and condenming the actions of a few Charedim, but only if it’s reciprocated. All the Freye do is incite more and more hatred against Charedim. It’s not discrimination to have private buses that are separated. It’s not discrimination to not have to see Pritzus in their own neighborhood in Bet Shemesh. This isn’t pre-war Germany where we have to beg for forgiveness. It is discrimination Not to hire s/o who won’t work on Shabbos. This goes on here in the US & in Israel. Just like the world has no idea what Marriage is anymore -they think it’s also between the same gender, they also have no idea what discrimination is! Where are all these Rabbis decrying the discrimination against Shabbos observers? Or is it they only don’t like bad publicity from the Goyim in this world? All of a sudden people are outraged about a few dressed as Holocaust Prisoners. If you care about right & wrong -where is the outrage about Religious employment discrimination?

    goldemkint – Purpose of protests – There is a reason and s/o needs to start a topic about it.

    “they can move to a complete closed community and build tall walls and not have to see anyone different if they so choose.”

    And what do you think Meah Shearim is? They just won’t leave the Charedim alone!

    “but the dat leumi community was in existence when they purchased their homes.”

    The only reason they agreed to have the school originally there because they were told it would be a boys school. They never agreed to have a girls school next to their neighborhood.

    “and according to the video i saw they just stand around waiting for people to pass by so they can harrass them.”

    Ridiculous -they are taking a recess from the learning in the Yeshiva.

    Avram in MD -“Health,

    This [why men who supposedly care about shemiras einayim would congregate around a girls school with improperly dressed girls/parents for any reason -recap mine] is a logical question. But I’ve posted here a few times -there is a reason and s/o should start a topic about it.

    Please, provide me a reason. I cannot think of any.”

    A few feet down isn’t a new topic!

    “Noone here defended the spitter.

    I don’t know what you are talking about -name s/o who is afraid to condemn it?”

    “You.”

    LIAR!!!!!

    “Example:

    Not defending the spitter, but his spitting was a reaction to the provocation.

    This is a defense of the spitter… providing a justification. Your adding “not defending the spitter” to this defense of the spitter does nothing but make an oxymoron. Like when the P.A. says, “oh, we condemn suicide bombings, but the suicide bombers are just reacting to Israeli oppression…” No, the spitting was not a reaction to any provocation. It was an act of abuse, an assault, pure and simple.”

    This I just posted -“Explaining why s/o reacted the way he did is Not necessarily defending his behavior. And in this case, I said clearly what I hold.” This isn’t a justification either -it’s an explanation. Too bad your sick Sinas Chinum doesn’t let you see the truth in regards to Charedim!

    “You are starting to sound like the Freye or MO haters.

    I’m not afraid of your threatened labels.”

    So I’ll take this response as an Yes, I do hate Charedim!

    But are you Frei or MO?

    “As a Jewish male who cares about guarding my eyes, this was a crime that was committed in my name, in my defense! So yes, I or my leaders have a responsibility to speak out.”

    This is the best one yet. They did it for YOU? Do you think you are G-d???? For your name? For your defense?

    “If someone heaven forbid killed a motorist and told the police that he did it so that “Avram in MD” would have a quicker commute, you’d better bet that I’d condemn it!”

    Most people would say -“Don’t bother me with some lunatic’s drivel”. Unless you’re feeling guilty. People don’t defend any accusation hurled at them, unless they have some guilt for whatever occured!

    “Does Every Single MO or settler condemn publically the desecration & burning of Mosques and attack on soldiers?

    The Yesha Council and Im Tirtzu, among other prominent officials in that movement did unequivocally condemn the violence.”

    You didn’t answer the question! I asked -Did Every Single one condemn it?

I understand you can’t post a link to such a picture even if you had one, however, every single video about the story in this thread shows a woman who is properly covered. There really is no point in going round and round here. It is what is already going on in RBS.”

    The picture was in another Frum website, in like the first article on this.

    Since then she wisened up or s/o wisened her up. “Make it look like you did nothing wrong – No provocation -so it’s only the Charedims’ fault for this whole incident. You are perfectly innocent.”

    And you fall for her new Tzinus look. She knows the cameras are rolling. It’s like going to Manhattan to watch the ball drop and saying – “Wow, e/o in NYC dresses Tzinus”.

    Only an idiot would say that because if you go to Times Square in July, you’ll find most people Don’t dress Tzinus!

    Stop with Hi -I don’t know you that you have to greet me -so it’s annoying.

    “You say, “Not defending the spitter, but his spitting was a reaction to the provocation. Yes, they shouldnt start up with bringing their kids to school with them not dressing properly!”

    Whoa!! I want to avoid a whole schmear of verbiage between us, so just answer me this, if you dont mind:

    You said that spitting is bad and that you are “not defending the spitter”. Do you really think no one will see any semblance of a defense for the spitter in your above quoted statement????”

    I’m not interested what’s going on in your mind or anyone elses.

    You claim to be knowledable in the English language. Explaining why s/o reacted the way he did is Not necessarily defending his behavior. And in this case, I said clearly what I hold.

    “I believe you see a point to both sides. I have to add, though, that even if the girl came to school dressed in shorts, one would have to be a complete idiot to spit at that child in the name of Torah.”

    So what? And do you think the mother isn’t responsible for provoking such a response -whether it’s shorts or a different Untzinus dress?

    “As individuals, we all have a need to correct ourselves. Sometimes as a community that may be the case too.”

    “The proper term for grown men hanging around a girls elementary school.

    If this didnt involve charedim and someone was stalking out 8 year old girls, They would be called pedaphiles.”

    I guess acc. to your logic I shouldn’t have used the word “vigilante” when referring to ones who attack Soldiers and desecrate & burn Mosques. They should be referred to as “MO Murderers or Terrorists”. Because with their violence they could have easily murdered s/o; much more than s/o who spits and protests Tzinus can come to Pedophilia!

    Avram in MD -“Why are these protesters even there? If what “Health” says is true, that they can see immodestly dressed women from their windows due to this school, how on earth can they justify running up to the school to get a closer look (while yelling at them of course)? The men would stay as far away from the school as they could, choosing instead to complain through other channels. My wife would never want me to place myself in a situation where it would be certain that I would see pritzus.”

    This is a logical question. But I’ve posted here a few times -there is a reason and s/o should start a topic about it.

    “Now for the spitting. Some (or one) here have attempted to say, “the MO started it, so they have the blame for inflaming the crazies.” Excuse me? That’s an argument little children use. Real adults take responsibility for their actions, no matter what instigated the situation. If I assault a guy who cut me off in traffic, do you think the cops will excuse me if I said, “but he started it, he had it coming! He shoulda known that there are crazy people around!” Another argument made here to defend these men is “maybe the children are dressed ok, but the problem is the mothers walking the children to school are immodest…” Well then, why was it the 8-year old girl who got spit on? Did the monster miss the mother and hit the girl by mistake? Maybe he was accidentally facing children when hurling epithets and meant to face the mothers? I don’t think so.”

    Excuse me? Noone here defended the spitter. The only thing that was the defended was the protests! You don’t seem to be able to differentiate. Very sad! So this last diatribe is a storm in a tea cup!

    “Unfortunately we do have a tznius problem, and I think some people here are afraid that if they fully condemned the spitter, they would somehow be yielding ground in their argument.”

    I don’t know what you are talking about -name s/o who is afraid to condemn it? You are starting to sound like the Freye or MO haters. Every single Charedi must proclaim from the rooftops and scream we are against spitting or we all are complicit with the spitters.

    Typical double standard! Does Every Single MO or settler condemn publically the desecration & burning of Mosques and attack on soldiers? Does Every Single Freye Jew (Chiloni) condenm the crimes that occur daily amongst them?

    BTGuy -“Sooooo….is it safe to say that we both think what happened to this girl was a bad thing and this is newsworthy and an embarrassment to Jews?”

    Getting spit on is a bad thing. Why do you make me repeat things a hundred times? I hate to say it but you must have a comprehension problem!

    Now is it Newsworthy? Well if after the Israeli media finish discussing in gory detail all the crimes that occur on a daily basis in Israel, then I guess they can mention it. But, I really don’t think they would have the time, because the News is only about a half-hour or a hour long. Just discussing one crime in detail would take up the most time. But for some reason (I can’t imagine why) they only have the time to discuss this “Major” crime of spitting.

    I guess all crimes in Israel have stopped because 1. – They all are watching the Charedi bashing all day in the news – so there is no time for any criminal activity.

    Or 2. – They have all become BT’s, B’H.

    Barring these two reasons – they should be discussing the most violent crimes first!

    As far as “embarrassment to Jews”, there is a topic on this in the CR, and I have many posts on this. Check it out!

    You know full and well the spitters aren’t reading posts in this website.

    “We all need to take this as mussar to avoid self-righteous indignation because we feel we are on a certain madraga that someone else is not on [yet]. The mussar can be for any point along the line of continuum and can include being harsh to spitting to fighting (literally and figuratively)”

    Again most Charedim don’t need Mussar “to avoid self-righteous indignation” because we don’t have any “self-righteous indignation”. Why do you think we do? Is this something inbred in you from your childhood?

    “The fact the spitter was not pounced on immediately (by me) and he is not the only one participating in this assault on a Jewish child, is something that needs to be nipped in the bud immediately.”

    He was not the only one, but there were a Few Charedim there, so what? And who says if 99% of the Charedim were standing there they wouldn’t stop this guy?

    “If there were something I can do about it, please let me know. In the meantime, it is a lesson for all of us, even in CR, to watch how we behave when we feel someone is not doing something right.”

    We should watch how we behave and most Charedim do; and since we do -we don’t need any Mussar on this. Who are you to come here and give Mussar to all Charedim? Perhaps you are the one with self-righteous indignation?

    tahini -“Health, the upset of seeing a Jew break or misunderstand the laws of kashrut or tzniut are nothing compared to the pain of seeing Jews burning up with hatred and bitterness against each other, sorry if this is not seen as appropriate, but it is a deep rooted instinct within me, and I suspect many other Jews feel the same.”

    But what you fail to understand is that the Charedim aren’t the ones burning up with hatred & bitterness -it’s e/o else towards the Charedim. If you realized this you wouldn’t be coming to YWN to post “how embarrassed you are”. You would go to the Jerusalem Post or Haaretz or something similar to post about your feelings.

    Why do you think that the Charedim are “burning up with hatred & bitterness” because of the demonstrations against breaches of the Torah? This isn’t because of “burning up with hatred & bitterness”, this is because they flaunt their Freye ways in front of the Charedim. This is just a reaction to the provocation.

    And you know I’m right because otherwise the Charedim would go to Tel Aviv everyday and yell and spit!

    “If you see something inappropriate and cannot mediate gently or effectively, look away, if food is not kosher, do not eat, but to turn on to another person and cause them pain and fear is not acceptable to me. It is not mere embarrassment, it is a sense of foreboding and acute pain.”

    The Charedim do and that’s why when they go to Tel Aviv or anywhere where a lot of Freye are, they aren’t yelling and spitting at every passerby. But you can’t expect them to turn the other cheek when you come next door to where they live and flaunt your Non-Torah behavior! (Look- no “U” in behavior -I’m not English.)

    Sam2 -“MDD: I’m not saying that Rabbi Broyde is right. He is a Bar Hachi to have an opinion though, and his followers have a right to follow his opinion. Also, the Aruch Hashulchan sounds like my statement of “have a Mesora not to cover their hair” isn’t so inaccurate.”

    I asked “L’chatchilla”? And you anwsered Rabbi Broyde & the Aruch Hashulchan. Sorry, but you made this up. They posted Rabbi Brody’s Shita here in the CR awhile back and I’ve also seen the Aruch Hashulchan, both are just saying a Limud Zecus, which is not the same as saying Mutter L’chatchilla!!!!

    adams -“who is heath to decide who keeps the Torah or not and on this basis you decide that you hate this fellow Jew?”

    I don’t decide whether s/o is keeping the Torah or not because I flip a coin, but if I see it with my own eyes then I know that they aren’t keeping it. If people are Mechalel Shabbos and I witness this -then they aren’t Frum. If people don’t keep Hilchos Tzinus and I witness this -then they aren’t Frum.

    “Please stop calling me a hater this is your specialty, to name call, perhaps you spend too much time thinking.

    Please stop calling me a hater. This is what you do in every post about me. It makes you look pathetic.”

    Sorry, you got it wrong. YOU came here to YWN bashing Charedim and I defended them, not the other way around. (LOOK UP!)

    Sorry that the truth hurts. Calling a hater – a hater doesn’t make me look pathetic, only the original hater looks like a fool!

    “No person has any right to judge another Jews if there skirts are too long or not.”

    Why not? And why is it that you think their lack of Tzinus is only with their skirts? The pictures I saw – everywhere they weren’t Tznius.

    “You are clearly spending too much time on areas you should not be focusing on.”

    Who says? And you are clearly spending too much time on areas you should not be focusing on, like a few guys whom spit amongst thousands & thousands of Good Ehliche Yidden.

    “this is not representative of Torah at all. You are missing the point.”

    Actually you are!

    “This extremism includes observing and focusing on a womans fashions, what she is wearing.”

    So noticing people who don’t dress Tzinus and calling them out about it, even if it’s flaunted in your face is extremism. I guess if I notice people who are Mechallel Shabbos and call them out about it -I’m an extremist.

    Actually being a Frum Jew is extremism, because by and large Most Jews aren’t Frum. This type of extremism I’m proud of!

    Sam2 – The learning is Not the same as Davening. Most yeshivos have some sort of dress code and people will ostracize those that don’t follow the code, even if you have permission from the RY, most Bochurim don’t want to associate with those that don’t go with the societal Norms!

    Sam2 -“Health: One more than 1 occasion I have been not counted for a Minyan, (presumably) due to me wearing a colored shirt. I would hope that everyone thinks like you claim-that they only care if you follow Halachah. However, my experience (and I think many others’ also) is that far too many care about other things than that.”

    This is the first time EVER that I heard anybody make such a claim. And if I never heard such a thing -I definitely never saw such a thing.

    So if it’s as common as you make it sound, don’t you think in my whole long life, Bli A’H, and I’m a FFB, that I would have at least heard about this?!?!

    lesschumras -“1. Did the MO neighborhoods and approval for the school precede the buildings that the Chareidim occupy? If so they can’t complain now about the view.”

    I don’t live there and I’m not 100% sure of the history. I think the MO neighborhoods were there first, but this “School” building was being built for a very long time. The MO just started using it for a school this year or last. I think the former Mayor tricked the Charedim into letting it be built, by saying it was going to be a Boy’s school.

    “2. Is the school in fact on the border? If it is and the times of the day when the girls go and come from school, why do the men any out on tat corner if the so offends them?”

    I think so.

    Who says they stand out? And read my posts above that they see the Pritzus from their neighborhood.

    mamashtakah -“That’s why curtains were invented.”

    So they should never allow any sunlight in? And what about when they go in and out of their house -Ya know to Daven, to learn, to shop? They shouldn’t have to wear blinders like horses. Let the Moderne either Dress Tzinus or move their school!

    “And obviously, they’re not sitting and learning if they are out screaming at little girls.”

    Well once they know that bad things is going on in their neighborhood -then they are Putter from learning and have to go out and make a Machoh!

    Therefore what? She made sure when the TV cameras were rolling to look presentable, but when in her home -on her couch -she let her hair down! (Let her guard down.) And this is when they snapped the picture.

    Whom needs to take Mussar the Spitter or all the Charedim?

    I don’t need to take Mussar or anybody that I know -I don’t react like that!

    And since you never really read my posts -I’ll repeat something I wrote above – “It’s funny – the media will condenm the whole Charedi world for the “terrible” violent actions of a few spitters, but they won’t condenm the whole Settler movement (Mostly M.O. Jews) for extreme violence committed against Arabs and soldiers!”

    Sam2 -“Health: No one is claiming “the Chareidim” are starting up. People are (accurately) stating that a group of idiots who pretend to be Chareidim are starting up.”

    Well those guys aren’t starting up either. They are reacting to UnTzinus dress that they are constantly exposed to!

    “Also, can you cite your CC please? I want to look at it.”

    Mostly #4, but a lot of places besides this.

    I really don’t know what this Zumba is and I’m not going online to look at the moves to see if they aren’t Tzinus.

    But those that claim that the moves aren’t Tzinus and the reason it’s Mutter is because it’s an all women’s class, so you wouldn’t have a problem if women learn and do belly-dancing in class, right?

    BTGuy -“So basically, your answer is to not be friendly since these muslims are just waiting to literally stab a Jew in the back, chas v’shalom.”

    Again you twisted my words -it’s not the first time. You also caused some negative posts towards me. Why don’t you try reading My posts before you comment?

    I posted -“I just thought of something -only treat them nice and buy them things if you truly have a relationship and know them well.”

    I was issuing a warning, not condenming all Muslims.

    Do you have a problem with this? Or should e/o believe the whole world & the Jewish Leftists that there is No problem with Muslims -the problem is Only the Jews?

    This comes out everyday from the UN – they have absolutely nothing negative to say about all these Arab countries, even nowadays with all the atrocities coming out of Syria everyday.

    They can only Condenm Israel day in & day out for building in the West Bank or defending themselves against the constant attack they get from Gaza!

    I just thought of something -only treat them nice and buy them things if you truly have a relationship and know them well.

    Muslims are notorious for being two-faced! They say that they have learnt Hachnosos Orchim from Avruhum Aveinu. So they will invite a Jew into their home and give you the most respect while you are there, but as soon as you step out of their door they will literally “stab you in the back”!

    Oh, they are sitting and learning, but when they are at home they look out the window and see Pritzus. I know you can’t comprehend this, but it bothers them.

    “Well the MO “Frum” Jews can move to the West Bank with all the other MO’s that live there.

    So let them move and then they can busy themselves with burning and desecrating Mosques and attacking Jewish soldiers, like the others that live there.

    It’s funny – the media will condenm the whole Charedi world for the “terrible” violent actions of a few spitters, but they won’t condenm the whole Settler movement (Mostly M.O. Jews) for extreme violence committed against Arabs and soldiers!
