    I can tell you that reverse racism exist in NYC, if your a white male you have no chance at getting a job if your competing against a less qualified minority.

    NYS put out a memo closing all loopholes that camps were operating under, I knew it was a matter of time, there are people who work for NYS who are equally has smart as the camp directors, now there can only be day camps in NYS.

    @ Sam Klein, My best vacation was in Yellowstone National Park, where do to the parks nature there are no cell towers other then the service villages that are about 60 miles apart, so unless your on a satellite phone you get no cell reception, I was able to immerse myself into this awesome place Hashem created with being distracted by my phone.

    I think sunrise over the Grand Canyon and Sunset over Pacific on Big Sur were probably the most amazing views that I have seen, but waking up in a meadow in Ouray Colorado surrounded by 14000 ft. mountain ranks pretty up there too

    @godal, I was in the Catskills on July 4th weekend and almost all sleepaway camps converted into day camp, city day camps are full, sleep away camps are operating in PA. MA. VT. and NH.
    BH frum people are resourceful for the most part, we managed to have Weddings, Bar Mitzvahs Etc., make peasch on our own, so on and so forth we can manage to keep our kids busy thru this summer.
    I plan to take my kids /grandkids for a week to a region that I always drove by and never knew how nice it was, North Central PA.

    @CTL,
    You just proved my point, you and your daughter live OUTSIDE the main frum population, she went on a business trip OUTSIDE the frum area, she got exposed OUTSIDE the frum area.
    So sorry to take the wind out of your sails the frum areas in NY/ NJ are not experiencing a new wave.

    I have been to Monsey, BP, Flatbush, Williamsburg, Lakewood and Sullivan County in the past month and life has returned to normal with minimal social distancing , in fact outside the frum areas in NY the protests had minimal social distancing, yet no spike. In fact there are 500% more people injured from car crashes this month in NY/NJ then were ill with Covid 19.
    If you would bring proof in a court of law that one isolated case that occurred outside main frum area is proof that the frum community is experiencing a new wave you would be laughed out of the court.

    I Just flew out on a short business trip and guess what, the flight attendant was a gay man, I know because I was seated near the galley and he was talking about his boyfriend to the other flight attendants.
    The person who took my order coffee shop in the airport was a trans.
    and guess what? I survived and so will you

    @syag, the donations of $1000 and up I personally know the tzvek, [ kerem yisomim, person lost a job] or the organization has no salaried people such as Kupat Ezra in Monsey. The rest are easy to find out with 2 minutes of a read of a return. Yes I check it out same way I check out product reviews and TripAdvisor reviews other then a person coming to shul who I give a Dollar or Five.
    PS read some 990 forms on some of the place you will find it very informative.

    @catch yourself,
    The big difference is that if someone is a CEO at Southwest airlines / Walmart / Pepsi, the CEO salary and benefit package is set by the Board of Directors who are elected by the shareholders.
    When I have Camp Simcha/ Tomchai Shabbos/ Masbia/ Hatzolah/ Project Yes etc.etc. hitting me up for donations I am a shareholder by donating the money and I am entitled to know if the CEO is earning a six figure salary and high end car lease on my chesbon.

    @schitzel, you are wrong, there is plenty of opportunity to get involved on a local level be it on a village level or next level, Chestnut Ridge, Airmont, SV, New Hempstead, Wesley Hills, Pomona, all have Frum people on the village, zoning and planning boards, I use to be on the executive committee of the local GOP before it was hijacked by the Preserve people and I quit in disgust.
    PS Eisenbach ran without “askumim” blessing and he won, Bentzy Wieder ran the first time without backing and won, if you have support from your neighbors you can win.

    @147: A lot also depend on the level of acrimony between the parents, there was a case where the hate was so bad it made the front page of the tabloids, when the son got married the parents could not act mature enough to set aside the disagreements and the cops needed to be called to the wedding for break up the fight.

    @charlie hall, you forgot to write he hugged Avi Weiss as one of the things he did for the Frum community.
    Besides Mitzizah he did nothing for the Frum community, the blocking the education report was a quid pro quo for something he wanted from Felder.
    The mayor does not allocate a dime its all from the City Council, so he didn’t “funnel money” to any group.

    @someone, Hashem did not appoint us to be the world morality police, maybe its because I have more exposure to the outside world that I understand birchas hascharch when I say asher boucher bonu me kol hoahamim,
    Our job is to lead moral lives and not worry about yinnim. The Aybisher has his chesbonis and he does not need any self appointed help, let Him worry about the man wearing a dress and renting me a car or the librarian who give me a book and live with an other woman.

    @someone, hate to break it to you, but this a ruling of a secular jurisprudence system, they are not paskining halachah, they are very separate and distinct. Frankly I doubt if Judge Sotomayor or Roberts ever hear of the Malbim and rightfully could not care less what his opinion is.
    If you have a dispute with a yid that belong is bais din, and frankly I get sick when I see two yidden sue in civil court, in the case of Bostock he was not Jewish and nor were the elected officials of Clayton County.

    My guess is about 2/3rds of the male flight attendants are gay therefore I should stop flying or just not be hyper focused on other peoples sexuality.
    I am a Chasidisher Yingerman who works outside the daled amos of Monsey, I have worked with Gays, Lesbians, Bi and Trans and found them to be competent employees who just do the job and go home.

    He was the worse mayor for the frum olam since David Dinkins and the Crown Heights Riot.
