@Yserbius, if you believe every rumor /conspiracy theory you heard then the UFOs landed in New Mexico, Covid was made up with the Chinese and Mossad and UN is a grand plan to rule the world.
If the only proof that you can offer up is that a newspaper in Lakewood use to print obituaries and then stopped is very very very lame, I dont live in Lakewood so I dont even read it, I can tell you that the Yated and Hamodia that is the main source of print media in the Charadi community prints obituaries in every edition.
I have always said if your going to make a statement you should back it up with facts, as to my personal opnion in regards to Covid, there were multiple expert opinions out there, I follow my doctors advice when it can to medical iisues and my Ravs advice when it came to halacha.@Bored Guy, the best solution for you is to get a job or a life and stop trolling.
This is your old post.
“every time I go out I feel like the girl is not for me. I feel its unfair that I have to have a shadchon decide who I should go out with, when they are so off the mark so often. they obliviously have no idea what I want. and I feel like its an endless circle. is there a new system that could work , where I don’t need someone else to decide who I should marry?”@ari the teretz is that its bain hazanim and the bucherim are bored
@Yserbius, do you have any proof of your insane statement? it has to be factual because a MD signs a death certificate and no one is going to risk signing a false cause of death, same with hospitals they report all Covid cases.
I am going to be dan lekav sechus and assume since its Adar you are still ad de lo yodah@AAQ, how about I was in Lakewood and saw it first hand the purim went on as normal and it had zero to do with the ederly getting vacinated Lakewod is a very young town I dont need Google to tell me facts because I was there, oh wait a minute you said you don’t suscripe to the consept of daas torah, why the change all of a sudden?
@AAQ, because it was a NORMAL purim, ie groups, parties large migilla reading etc.etc., the only masks I saw were kids costume masks, I was there so I know, sorry chicken little the sky is not falling
@Reb E how do you reconcile the facts listed above of a very pro Jewish Pro Frum DOJ with your perception that Trump encouraged anti-Semitism other then the lame statement that nationalist stormed that Capitol?
PS there were a few Yidden in the crowd in the Capitol as wellReb E, please deal with reality, for frum people the DOJ under Trump was the most frum friendly ever.
For religious assemblies, both small and large, having a place to gather for worship and carry out other religious activities is fundamental.
The land use provisions of the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA), enacted in 2000, are designed to protect the basic right to buy, rent, and use land for worship and religious exercise.
On June 13, 2018, the Attorney General announced the Place to Worship Initiative. The goal of the Initiative is to increase enforcement and public awareness of the land use provisions of RLUIPA. These provisions protect places of worship and other religious uses of property (including religious schools and religious social service providers) in the zoning and landmarking process from actions by local governments that:
Place unjustifiable burdens on religious exercise;
Treat religious assemblies and institutions worse than nonreligious assemblies and institutions;
Discriminate against religious assemblies or institutions based on religion or religious denomination; or
Totally or unreasonably exclude religious assemblies and institutions from a particular municipality or county.
The Initiative seeks to increase the Department’s enforcement of RLUIPA, and educate religious leaders, county and municipal officials, and the general public about RLUIPA.Edited
@ Reb E the DOJ under Trump fought anti religion discrimination that affected frum people, we dont need lip service saying don’t hate Jews we need action to help us do not expect any help from DOJ for the next four years. here is the list of the fight against the anti religions under Trump:

@lakewut, yes he will, he will close the new division of civil right against religion leaving frum people high and dry
How many user names do u have?
No he wants real responses not someone who just calls he a troll and nothing more
@Jackk, “He has had many more public activities dealing with domestic issues such as International Women’s Day, anniversary of Bloody Sunday, Passing the American Rescue Plan , Supporting workers in Alabama voting to unionize”
Yup a list of very earth shattering item the world almost came to an end without those items on that listCoffee, it lake a lot more then a bored bucher trolling on his parents computer to get me annoyed, i am just calling the shots the way the are, it is very rare that I agree with the left of center CR commenters such as Charlie Hall, Huju, Reb E, AAQ, Amil Etc. But at least they are adult making a well thought out points that I disagree with, not some bored teen trolling for attention
a TROLL is a TROLL is a TROLLL
How about using 1 user names instead of 4, and stop posting immature content
“weiered,” please spend your bein hazanim learning basic English instead of posting stupid comments under various user names
@meir g, the shrinkage is mostly in the smaller and nominally affiliated mosdos such as Krasna, Spinka, Boyan, Stolin, Muncatch etc. those are the yeshivas with the big losses because most who send there are not really affiliated with the mosdos.
Even in Staten Island Gur, Belz and Bobov have opened botay medroshim.
I am talking fact from the insideI know its bein hazamin by the number of trollish comments
In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts flame wars or intentionally upsets people on the Internet. This is typically done by posting inflammatory and digressive,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog), with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses[2] and normalizing tangential discussion.[3] This is typically for the troll’s amusement, or to achieve a specific result such as disrupting a rival’s online activities or manipulating a political process.
Both the noun and the verb forms of “troll” are associated with Internet discourse. However, the word has also been used more widely. Media attention in recent years has equated trolling with online harassment. For example, the mass media have used “troll” to mean “a person who defaces Internet tribute sites with the aim of causing grief to families”.[4][5] In addition, depictions of trolling have been included in popular fictional works, such as the HBO television program The Newsroom, in which a main character encounters harassing persons online and tries to infiltrate their circles by posting negative sexual comments.
Who replaced Rav Shlomo Friefeld? no one, the shoes were too big in more ways then one.
@ujm, its just replacing the yeshivisher crowd in flatbush, no net growth of frum families like Monsey, Lakewood or Staten Island
@UJM, “Interestingly, over the last few years it is also starting to occur with Boro Park, but to a lesser degree. The Yeshivos there are still growing but at a smaller pace.”
My Brother in law is a menhal in on of the Boro Park mosdos and he told me they are losing 10-20% of the families a year for the past 10 years resulting in consolidation of the classes. Main motivation of the move is affordability, for what they are paying to buy a two bedroom condo in Boro park they can buy a house on a half acre lot in Monsey or Lakewood.
The main reason it is not even a greater exodus from Boro Park is the lack of capacity in schools, there are 5 applicats for every seat in the first grade in most Monsey school.
Greater Monsey starts in Pearl River and end in West Haverstraw 15 miles N to S and runs from Nanuet to Suffern W to E a distance of 10 miles.
Greater Lakewood Starts in Dover Twp and ends in Jackson E to West and starts in Manchester and ends in Howell N to S.
And that does not even mention all the new places sprang up in the past 10 years, Linden, Staten Island, Union NJ, Hollywood Fl. Etc.@lakewhut “Lakewood a yeshiva community to get away from the gashmiyus of the big city and Mobsey a suburb.,”
Monsey started around Bais Medresh Elyon, it was a small hamlet with 5 stores as Monsey grew the balla batim came drawn by the proximity to NYC, in the late 60s the Scver Rebbe established New Sqaure followed by Visnits a few years later and the rest is history, but Monsey was started by BME.AAQ, I cant give an opinion on how pork or shellfish tastes because I never eat it, same here I flew pre covid and during covid and I can tell you they are on power trips
@AAQ, after you have flown I will answer your question
@CT Lawyer, the 10 Senators who Biden met with offered a middle of the road more moderate option without the insane add ons that the Democrat bill had and they were promptly shown the door.
@ujm, this is closer to having a discussion is a kava steeble or a haiser mikva, a fair exchange of opinion and no one is shame nor has his mind changed by what someone has to say.
@Jackk, the reason no GOP voted for it is because in the great tradition of is former boss Obama he refused to negotiate with the GOP, so much for the bipartisan drivel we heard so much from el presidente
@CT lawyer, Great minds think alike, because I too invested in March 2020 in the travel sector [mostly airlines] [including some like spirt that I never fly on] my best move was buying Avis instead of Hertz.
In the early days of Jetblue they had a culture of customer service and I enjoyed flying them, the former CEO of Jetblue is opening a new airline with a focus of customer service@CTLawyer, You still have options out of HPN to Florida, Jet blue has service there and that is still my prefered option, the only issue I have with HPN is the lack of long term parking
@AAQ, ein domeh smeah lereah, I experienced it first hand , they ARE on a power trip, you admitted you have not been in a airport in 13 months so your opinion does not matter
@CharlieHall, actually we have Sir Freddy Laker, Frank Lorenzo, Kenny Friedkin of PSA, David Neeleman in addition to Herb who paved the way for the lost cost airlines.
Most of them used the playbook of Don Burr of People Express and Nickle and Dime you for everything.
At least in on those airlines it was fun to fly.
PS I paid my way thru college working for People Express in EWR@AAQ, try flying that way I did and then you can give your opinion if they are on power trip after seeing first hand, unless like your opinion about saying kaddish, you dont want to hear a differing opinion
@AAQ, I am fully compliant in airports and aircraft so it was not directed to me, you want details? my son told me a fight attendant was roaming the plane with a pen and paper and taking notes of everyone whos mask slipped, when you get on the plane they welcome you with a “if you don’t wear your mask we will throw you off the plane. sorry that’s called a power trip, when a fully compliant mask wearer from Ohio who is not Jewish complains about the same thing you know its not a frum issue.
PS have you flow in the past 12 months?@CT Lawyer, the employees of the ultra low cost airlines tend to be paid at a much lower pay scale then the legacy carrier hence a lower caliber employee, [ you get what you pay for], that being said I have flown Frontier Pre and during Covid with no issues other then the usual snarling about mask use.
I refuse to fly Spirit where the CEO wrote in a email about someone who asked for a refund after his flight was canceled ““We owe him nothing as far as I’m concerned,” Mr. Baldanza wrote “Let him tell the world how bad we are. He’s never flown us before anyway and will be back when we save him a penny.”
@Godal I flew Frontier, Jetblue, United and American, common denominator flight crew was rude for the most part from boarding of the plane to deplaning regardless is the plane was full or empty, most of them seem to be on a power trip.
PS my son just flew back from this zman in Israel and told me that the flight crew was roaming the aisles looking for reasons to complain
