Today is the yartzheit of the heliger satmar rebbe zy’a. Can anyone explain why the satmar rebbe (r’ zalman leib of williamsburg) felt the need to break every vehicle and traffic law in NYS, endanger the lives of pedestrians and drivers alike, and cause a crazy amount of noise at 1:30am, when everyone is sleeping? Where is the emergency? To daven at a kever of a tzadik?
For those of us old enough to remember, the Lubavitcher Rebbe had a similar escort to visit the kever of his shver. It isn’t new. I don’t know if those were police cars or other types of vehicles that have permission to have sirens. If it is the latter, it is probably a misuse of the sirens.
OP, do you really have nothing better to do with your life than sit here on the CR and provide a steady stream of loshon hara and bizuy Talmid Chachom?
