    Firstly, you are being motzei Shem rah on an entire amazing community and I take offense to that.
    Not exactly. He didn’t say everyone is a prutza.
    Please try not to be motzei Shem rah on him.

    Maybe you should take a job in the city and see what true pritsuz looks like.
    What does that mean? Since In the city women walk around in bathing suits, so a women in a short tight skirt is not pritzus ??
    Really?

    You choose to be mevayesh women in MY community when there is absolutely no issue right now in the cold months of the winter
    Absolutely no problem?
    That’s beyond amazing. I don’t know your community. But I have been to many Jewish communities.
    There are always some issues. In every community.

    As I posted on a different thread.

    Just a Jew
    You have made offensive comments about almost everyone who has posted on this thread.
    How does that even make sense?
    You are smashing and insulting and excoriating SPECIFIC people here on this thread.
    The moderators know who they are and perhaps many Others also know.
    All in your quest to advance an agenda of tolerance and not judging others????
    Your hypocrisy is not even subtle.
    It’s plain bewildering.
    And yes it is OK to publicize certain wrongdoings of others and it is not lashon hara
    The רמב”ם says מצוה לפרסם עושי רשעה.
    In order that others don’t learn from them
    If someone defends a person who is being עובר עבירה according to many ראשונים he is עובר לאו ד-לא תחניפו את הארץ

    Besides that your entire defense is lunacy.
    Others claim the 5towns are a bastion of promiscuity. I AM NOT TAKING THAT OPINION. I HAVE NO OPINION AS I HAVE ZERO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT IT.
    you are responding that the 5 towns are a bastion of Torah and chesed.
    Are those two things mutually exclusive?
    How is your post a defense?

    I am well aware. I didn’t mean more than to show that it’s possible for Stalin to ”support” yeshivas

    However now that you mention that, it is a very apt comparison to the ”support ” given to yeshivas by our democrat ”friends ”

    For the record, throughout the worst of the communist regime, the main shul in Moscow enjoyed the protection of the government.
    So yes it’s possible for Stalin to support yeshivas.

    Anyway had Stalin been alive and a us citizen and denizen I would assign ”trolling ”
    However because of the lack of all three, I think I’m this case it’s more probable if was actually using it as an extreme. And not as a straight troll.

    Mariana,
    Why are you convinced that a wall won’t work?
    As trump mentioned, it seems to work in Israel, it works around people’s homes,
    And you know where I think we all agree it works? Around prisons.
    Why do most prisons, except perhaps those that are on islands, have walls around them? (some minimum security also don’t but that’s because the threat of being put into tougher security prisons is usually enough)
    Probably because they work.
    You know what doesn’t work? Gun control. This country spends billions on gun control, while guns for criminals are easily available. Know how?
    Cause they come in through the porous southern border.
    So how’s about we just switch. Drop gun control (I don’t mean totally) and build the wall.
    Probably save money and lives.

    To ctl and ubiq,
    I can’t believe I need to spell this out.
    The op was asking the following question.
    ”is it possible for the democrats to run a person that is so bad that his evilness would supersede the monetary gain to your chosen institution, or would the democrat Jewish voter vote for anyone , no matter how evil, provided they promised cash.? ”
    In order to make the question easier to understand and a bit shorter, he used a name, Stalin, that is the prototype of complete evil and antisemitism.
    He didn’t ask, if you lived in Stalinist Russia would you vote for Stalin.
    He didn’t ask, would you, in CT, vote for dead Stalin in Russia?.
    Please stop telling us about voting issues in Russia or the fact that Stalin is dead.
    Learn to understand what someone wrote.
    In this case it is so simple.

    What he meant to say was as follows as a lawyer you should have been able to figure this out
    if Stalin using Stalin as a hypothetical person do to his well-known stance of being a terrible anti-semite were to run in a American Primary as a Democrat would you vote for him if he were to hold out the carat of giving funding to your favorite Institution
    now we are currently aware that you as a lawyer are of the opinion that any politician who offers money to a religious institution should not be voted in so we know your personal answer is no however this question was thrown out to the General Public would you therefore vote for a known anti-semite in an American Primary because he is a Democrat offering money to your local Institution if the answer is yes then say yes if the answer is no then how could you possibly still be voting for the Democrat Party with such people in there as Talib and ocasio-cortez that was the original posters question

    Nobody is telling you to drive faster, they are telling you to drive safer. As in get out of the left lane so cars and trucks can stop swerving around you.
    You don’t need to be a road cop for the whole parkway. Just get out of the way and let the speeders speed.
    You are endangering those who are driving at the speed limit in the right lane as cars trying to get around you are Zipping around at 80-90mph tailgating and swerving.
    Stop being so self righteous and get out of the left lane.

    Putting aside the question as to whether this is even L”H, there’s no prohibition against L”H on someone who is deceased.

    The idea of not using his songs comes from the idea that music is the language of the soul.
    It comes out of his soul and enters the listeners soul.
    That’s the reason that music from an impure place is different than buying shoes from such a person.
    (ill GOTTEN money would probably have the same affect)
    The reason there is talk about carlBach is because his music seems to express devotion and yearning for purity while some of his behavior was shall we say ”questionable”.
    Most of the songs sung today are in a great part seriously frowned upon by most serious rabbanim and people with a sense of purity.
    The reason carlbach is a discussion is because his music is so close (at least) to the pure side.

    Now answer the simple question
    ”what is your beef against Hatzola? ”1500166

    Who do you think you are?!?
    Just someone trying to figure out why you would publicly bash Hatzola

    Why would I mention them on a public forum?
    Firstly, who cares why. You said the facts were spelled out there.
    Secondly because it would be common decency to back up your hyperbolic animosity with some sort of facts.(1500139)

    Wow!!!
    That’s the smoking gun???
    That’s your issue with Hatzola?
    There is no issue mentioned there. Just someone (perhaps it’s you. Perhaps someone else) maligning Hatzola in a different setting.
    Boy did I waste my time with you.
    edited, again. (1499238)

    ”I discussed this already many times. In this topic …”
    Really? I just scrolled through all your comments on this thread. There is not a single one there that provides any reasoning or facts to back up your open animosity to Hatzola.

    Health,
    You asked a question

    ”No way that I base my opinon on three cases?!? Where did you get that idea? You read into my previous post that it was only 3 cases. I wonder why you did that?”

    I’ll try to answer that.
    Follow along as I paste two quotes from a fellow with the screen name health.

    1) I hardly seen them work, but in three cases I’ve seen, amongst other cases, they convinced the caller – no transport was needed. One of the cases ended up with a death.

    2) I listed 3 cases, where I was present, where s/o called Hatzola, and they decided that the pt. didn’t need transport. 2 of them defintely did, but I wasn’t able to follow up on the third one.

    So I think an honest observer would excuse me for thinking you are basing your opinion on three cases.

    But In truth , you are probably correct. By now I should know you don’t mean what you write and half the time you probably don’t remember what you wrote either.
    Sorry.

    No we cannot safely ignore him.
    He started off badmouthing one of the most selfless organizations in the current frum communities.
    One cannot just sit by and allow that to go unchecked.
    There are thousands (presumably) of people who peruse these boards who will not know to ”safely ignore him ”
    His original rants painted hatzolah as an inept rescue organization that across the full spectrum does more harm than good (if he granted that they do any good)
    B ”H through much time expended in boxing him in I was able to extract from him the totality of his issue for all to see.
    He knows two or three cases where there was a negative outcome which he says came because hatzolah convinced the patient not to go to the hospital.
    Really not such a big deal all of a sudden.
    If could have just said, when In doubt, go!

    That is a far cry from his original

    ”Hatzolah is a terrible murderous organization stay far away call your local car service better than calling them”

    The research found that the only Volly systems that worked was like in Balto. County, MD.
    When a 911 EMS call came in, they dispatched the nearest fire station. A lot of EMS in this country is fire based. They gave the Vollys a few minutes to respond; and if they didn’t respond within the allotted time – they dispatched the nearest paid fire station.

    does this really need a response???
    “and if they didn’t respond within the allotted time – they dispatched the nearest paid fire station.”

    The stats don’t differentiate between outer boroughs & night calls.
    They are all inclusive. When I did my Medic training – they were plenty busy. As a matter fact, they did all sort of Shtick to avoid responding. Most days they had more calls than units able to respond to them!

    You give me quite an interesting logic toy here. But your argument is actually self-defeating .
    let’s make a simple if then flowchart .
    if the resources of EMS are structured to reflect the volume of calls coming in based on where they’re coming from then the averages would equal out to the -total , average worker to call ratio.
    if they are not spreading their resources according to need, then think for a moment .
    what we have is, in the congested inner boroughs (whichever that may be )you have an overwhelming amount of calls , meaning ,longer to no response times .as you ended yourself in your post “that sometimes there were too many calls to respond to ”
    not a very comforting nor positive result for somebody in An emergency situation.
    if you’re in an Outer Borough then according to your logic, your EMS workers get far fewer cases than the average of 1.6 per week. leaving him woefully inadequately prepared for emergencies.
    the only way around the unpreparedness would be to say that they are rotating the staff and their positions .
    But in that case you would probably end up with the same average , being as part-time they are in high volume areas and part-time in low-volume areas.
    to sum it all up there is no way to have all EMS workers getting higher exexperience and sufficient coverage if you accept the total number of calls and the total number of workers as stated in the Wikipedia article.( unless, and I don’t think you were, you are claiming that they are either overstating the call volume or, Understating worker counts. )
    And if you will say they are constantly shifting workers from high to low zones you are only making the outcome worse for the patient not better as you can and will end up having low experienced workers operating in high call zones, and when they finally get experience you shift them out to the outer boroughs, where they sit and wait for calls.
    Talk about playing Russian roulette!!
