Bus stop ads but ads in our comunity

Paint it over. Eventually they’ll get the point.

Not sure where you live, but Brooklyn is not YOUR community, Jews arent even the majority in brooklyn anymore

ZD is correct. For better and worse, the freedoms being exercised by advertisers in your neighborhood are part of what makes your neighborhood and your country a safe appealing and free place for you and your community to live.

If you feel you must do something about these images, you can: a)approach the owner or the marketing firm that sells advertising space on the shelters and ask them to put your sensitivities over their bottom line (they might actually say yes. Goodwill also has value). b) do some work for yourself and your community by finding an advertiser or advertisers who would benefit from the exposure and ask THEM to advertise on bus shelters in your neighborhood. c) engage in civil discourse about this at the political level, to see if your local assemblyman or council member is prepared to seek a change to the law to restrict what kind of images are legal. Not much likelihood of success with this one, but you don’t know if you just complain. And your elected officials, like everyone else’s are interested in being reelected. So work to deliver them votes if they do what you wish. Or, conversely, work against them if they don’t. But DO SOMETHING. It is your neighborhood.

If you actually get involved in finding a solution that accomplishes your goal but that doesn’t violate the rights of others, You could be teaching our Tayere Yidishe kids about democracy, engagement, civic responsibility, and good citizenship. Assuming they are going to vote and pay taxes when they are older, that’s a useful agenda.

Yes, we are intolerant of immorality. Especially when shoved in our faces. And, G-d forbid, potentially influencing impressionable youth as well as affecting the piety of adults. At one time even gentiles recognized it immoral to shove in public such exposure.

Ok Joseph when you start your own country you can make the rules long live the king.

Second this.

In fact, in “Liberaltown USA” (also known as NYC, home of Stonewall national monument), they purposely shove immorality in the faces of impressionable youth. That is their religion. If you don’t like it, you can vote with your feet. Perhaps you want to try a Theocracy, like New Square, Kiryas Joel, Iran or Israel.

There is a big difference between not modest to outward beastly behavior

Huh?

The non jewish world has no morals. What are you going to do about that jewish source?

“Jews arent even the majority in brooklyn anymore”

Jews never were the majority in Brooklyn. Jews were almost a majority in the Bronx, though.

“The non jewish world has no morals.”

We should clean up our own act before whining about others. Or are bribery, influence peddling, kickbacks, and covering up child abuse moral?

mdd: You can take lots of statements from Chazal to claim that lots of things are worse than others. And charlie is right that we should worry about fixing issues in our own communities before fixing other communities.
