cherrybim,
If you are not going repudiate lies and attacks, then I won’t waste my time.
If I see any lashon hara directed towards the frum Jews of New York themselves, then B”N I will repudiate it.
I’ll meet you even further and say that I disagree with some of akuperma’s contentions regarding New York because they were inaccurate, but I don’t think they were lashon hara. But since you think that it’s not even ok to say anything negative about the area where frum Jews live, why are you enthusiastically participating in the Baltimore bashing?
Is it my imagination, or is it true that just about every Rav and Posek and Jewish leader in Balimore was brought up in communities outside of Balimore.
What does this demonstrate other than that Baltimore is a younger and smaller community than New York?
