    Looking back at posts, things look much different then when I read it initially.

    I am not sure that the characters behind these user names are real!

    I think the point is to constantly remember, that not everyone that appears to be just an innocent online poster is what (s)he appears, people with bad motives can hide behind those innocent masks.

    What do you mean by dangerous?

    I know of someone that used to light outside, he once woke up to find out that his entire family’s menora’s were no longer there.

    no longer does he light outside.

    147,

    Another thing Rav Avigdor Miller ZT’L said, is that men should only seek help from men and ladies from ladies.

    Avraham Migayer es ha’anushim, V’sara migayeres es hanoshim.

    He stated that he is aware of a case, in which a young man tried to help a young women and he got hooked onto her..

    I think that it’s not that bad that he is officially disassociating himself from the frum oilem.

    At lease he is showing his true colors.

    I think that it is better that he is showing his true colors. Since up until now his fans were arguing that he means it for Hashems sake and he understands hashem better than our Rabbanim.

    However he is now showing the surface of his true colors, as someone that knew him early on, I know that he is idolizes Female singers and he tries to imitate songs that are full of shmutz.

    He has no problem performing in a mixed dancing environment.

    I hope that he will now officially claim that he is on the ‘other side’.

    I wish that he would stop saying that he is doing all of this for the sake of Hashem.

    Its sad to see how he claims that all the stuff he is doing is only for the sake of Achdus and hashem, anyone that followed before he got popular knows that that he is in a downward spiral.

    What else will he do “to make people happy”?

    Some therapists have the ability to see if the person has been abused .

    Nothing gets erased from the mind, it might be difficulty to retrieve the information, however with training and expertise professionals have the power of helping people remember.

    No, I don’t like his songs, since they are very similar to modern day non Jewish music.

    I neither like it when he performs live and uses tunes of dirty songs with his own words.

    ZDAD,

    are you talking from experience?

    With my experience, a therapist plays with ones emotions, talks about the clients personal experience, a lot of room to establish a personal connection.

    is it right or professional? probably not, however there is the risk of establishing a personal relationship.

    A regular health care professional does not have this risk.

    Health,

    I do not know why you are assuming that this was the intent of the OP. In fact I did and still do view it as an innocent question.

    I do not think that you can compare therapy to a doctors visit. A Doctors exam is objective, its not in any way similar to a therapy session.

    With therapy, the therapist will discuss the clients emotions and feelings, there is a lot of room for personal relationship.

    1. Will H do anything.

    I can’t answer for sure, as these stuff are not disclosed, however understanding the way the organization operates it is very likely that some thing will happen.

    Many complaints will definitely have an effect. It’s a disciplined organization, the will take measures to make sure members are disciplined.

    Best would be to speak to a coordinator. Call the office and let ask to,speak to a coordinator.

    2. Refuse to comment.

    Considering the fact that there is a war in EY. Why aren’t the yeshiva Bachurim and young couples coming home until things quiet down. Isn’t it a makom sekanah?

    We have Gemaros and batei midrashim here as well. So why be in a war zone if there is no must?

    Farrocks,

    Since you are referring to earlier comments on this thread, please let me know which ones you are referring to. so that I can explain it better.

    I have more than once clearly stated, Hatzoloh as well as any other organization should be called out for any wrongdoings, however they should only be criticized if the issue is valid.

    Meaning, its is irresponsible for someone to start publicly criticize an organization for something, when in fact there was no wrongdoing.

    Criticizing would be when your expressing yourself against hatzoloh for doing something wrong.

    Bashing would be to verbally attack hatzoloh for no valid reason.

    If you were following this thread, I think that you will see that this has been my position all along.

    Why is that style is something that keeps on changing.

    If smaller glasses with thin frames are nice, they should stay the style. if Round lenses are in nice, they should stay in style.

    Looks like style and nice have nothing in common, or is that that nice is what is in style?

    I think that a Daas Tora should be consulted.

    However my personal opinion (if it matters) is that it’s wrong.

    I am aware of a case in which a (chasidshe) rav arranged a Bachur to see a female therapist.

    Again, I think that it depends on a lot of details in which a competent das torah should be consulted.

    Health,

    I have not made any statement that no one should criticize hatzoloh.

    I have just asked why one would bash someone that has volunteered to help him in a time of need.

    this has nothing to do about me being right or wrong. (not that astounding or funny after all).

    BPM,

    After being accused of being a Con Artist, I took a few moments to review this entire thread.

    No where was I trying to swindle or try to convince anyone into anything, no where did I try to make people think that I know more then I really do. I either states the facts or just kept quiet.

    In fact the original post about talking negative about hatzoloh WAS in fact directed towards our post. You made fun of jacness this is what you wrote:

    jackness,, where oh where are you? You fired off a bunch of diatribes which were answered and you haven’t been back?

    Perhaps, like some other VAS members, you’re busy playing police officer at gas lines like the one at 14th Avenue and 38th Street in Borough Park.

    (interesting, you can assume whatever you wish, however real brisker becomes a liar when assumes something about you..)

    This is where I posted that why talk down to someone that is offering his services to help you in a time of need. this was NOT about criticizing hatzoloh.

    After questioning my option, if A) hatzoloh may be criticized, B) if valid criticism exist to which I answered to the affirmative. you still keep on stating that I am twisting my words.

    I believe that I have been straight forward either with my opinions or with the facts.

    I have even went so far to explain certain things that people view as abuse.

    Health,

    You are right, this is a very common, so common that you do so on a continues basis.

    You always make sure to take a shot at the poster, be it this thread or other threads without posting anything with real substance.

    Most regular posters have already identified you as such. Thanks for pointing it out.

    Interesting that jump on people for not using words correctly, however you call someone a liar when all they have written is that it SOUNDS like your trying to take revenge. Is this a lie? its an opinion!

    I am sure that you and others reading this have known that this is a pure opinion.

    Same is with your next example, its clear that he was joking. there is no way he should know the real truth and you surely knew it!

    Please stop calling other poster names, (con artist, liar) and then ask the moderators to remove their posts.

    BPM,

    You can call me what ever you want. I am no con artist and do not play with words. I have written more than once that each and every organization should be open for criticism.

    The fact that i have asked why you would bash hatzoloh, does not mean that hatzoloh should not be criticized when they do something wrong.

    What i have written was not pointed directly at you, rather to people in general who bash and talk negative about hatzoloh without even knowing what really goes on.

    This does not meant that there is no place for legitimate critic.

    are we clear on this?

    That is not true! I have written more then once and very clear, each organization and each individual is open for criticism.

    I really don’t know why you keep n repeating time after time that its my position that Hatzoloh cannot be criticized.

    Please stop that.

    Also, make sure that its a real abuse and not a legitimate call. Calls happen all the time at any place.

    Further more, if the member has parked illegally, and does not have authorization to do so. Hatzoloh ,ought not act. Since the member really as no privileges and is only hoping that an officer will not ticket him.

    Similar to EMT plates, which anyone with EMT license can easily obtain. It might help against getting a ticket, and some people even take the risk. So I don’t think that it’s hatzolohs business what risks this member takes.

    Try by documenting it, such as a photo. Then submit a claim. If it was an abuse, they will make note of it. The last thing hatzoloh needs is negative publicity.

    Health,

    Please be kind enough to point out where he was lying.

    I will try to answer as to why he is defending them, since they are an organization with the objective of serving the community and the individual in a time of need. so when some poster decides to ridicule the organization with a bunch of non sense, he stands up against that poster.

    or, maybe he or someone he knows was on the receiving end of the organization and saw first hand how they operate, therefore he found it his business to stand up against them.

    Now I will ask you the question you asked him, why are you standing up AGAINST Hatzoloh?
