What would @BilldeBlasio and @NYPDShea choose at this point: That 250,000 Orthodox Jews join protests across Brooklyn, or that Jews should rather go to shul to pray/study while their 10 year olds put up street corner carnivals for their 10 year old friends?
WOW! The same NYC Sheriff vehicle that came around Hasidic-populated neighborhoods in Brooklyn a few days ago to harass small business owners for doing what @Walmart does, has been vandalized this weekend by rioters.
The same governors and mayors who unleashed the full force of their governments against Moms at parks and on small business owners, are now tweeting support for protests that are mostly riots at this point. Covid-19 has respect for a good cause? Gatherings are either good or not!
.@NYCFinance Is this a SICK JOKE? As Brooklyn is burning 2 miles away and roads are shutdown due to protests, your Sheriffs are again in Borough Park today (@NYPD66Pct) to make sure that stores are closed due to social distancing rules. cc @KalmanYeger
This was last night in front of @NYPD66Pct which covers Borough Park. Quiet and calm. It’s a neighborhood where its inhabitants want a funeral for a loved one; pray with a Minyan; have program a few hours a day for their children, and work to pay bills. Few are looking 4 trouble.
VIDEO: As @NYGovCuomo and @BilldeBlasio need to announce a curfew becasue NYC is a flame, @NYPDnews was sending away Hasidic moms/children from a park in Williamsburg; blocks from where hell broke loose the last few days. Will BDB be happy when Hasidim join the protests? SICK!
Maybe if Moms and children in the Hasidic Community decided to spend time on the Williamsburg Bridge or on the BQE, @NYPDnews would leave them alone. Maybe, in fact, @NYPDChiefofDept would hug the families too. Such a missed opportunity...
