Yidd23 -“Is there some kind of muzzle you can put on them to keep them from putting everything in their mouths?”
What’s wrong with that? The job of the caregiver is to make sure it’s something safe to put in. That’s why a lot of toys have a label – “Not for children under 3”!
Sam2 -“That is R’ Saadya Gaon’s opinion, that God knowing has nothing to do with what we choose”
I answered the question of Yediah & Bechira. According to you, you haven’t answered the Steerah!
Sam2 -“Health: Hashem doesn’t “time travel”.”
Did you read the whole post? To answer the question of Yediah & Bechira, it’s like he does time travel. Even though you have a choice, he knows what you chose!
DY -“Anyhow, any comment on my proof that there is no time travel?”
I heard that one of the Tiroozim to Yediah & Bechira is that Hashem does time travel!
Is it possible for humans to do it? IDK if Hashem would give that to humans. I doubt it; because why do you need such a thing as Teshuva? Just go back in time and correct whatever it is!
CTlawyer -“your agenda is obvious, you wish to pillory Hillary.”
That’s correct! Do you think that the embassy had adequate protection? If not, why didn’t Hillary give the order to evacuate?
From the Washington Post:
“Sept. 12, e-mail recounting phone conversation with Egyptian foreign minister:
And there are people who want to give her the keys to the country!
CTlawyer -“The Laura comment is for the benefit of Health who keep trying to pin deaths on Hillary”
“Because the ambassador must follow the chain of command, then the SOS contact Secretary of Defense or President (Commander of Chief). Whether or not this was don is a different question.”
This is typical of a democrat, questioning whether the DOD did their job!
If it’s true, that the blame lied with the DOD, why did State Department fire some employees?!?
They should get their job back & file a lawsuit!
CTlawyer -“No one was talking about responsibility. Your earlier posts said she was negligent”
Your posts are extremely funny, if they weren’t so sad! This is an internet blog, not a legal brief!
Therefore I can use the word negligent, even it’s not correct legally.
Please don’t take yourself so seriously.
BTW, I’ve written legal briefs in state & federal courts, all the way up to the US Supreme Court and I’m not a lawyer!
Yidd23 -“Desperate people do extreme things. Injuring oneself to survive is something that has been observed in trapped animals.”
You didn’t answer my second half!
Mammele -“Health: I’m confused, throw out Medicaid or Medicare?”
Throw out Medicare! Medicaid is a Chessed for poor people.
“And if you meant exactly what you wrote, why?”
Rephrase your question.
Yidd23 -“If only disabled and sick people got help, people would deliberately injure themselves”
I really don’t think people would injure themselves. And if you know anyone that really would, first of all, it’s a crime. Second, then they are already in the category of disabled or sick, just mentally!
CA -“If there weren’t illegals who would do the work? Nobody? Obviously they would raise wages until someone would do”
No reason to raise the wages! They already have a program that lets foreigners work here legally. Throw out the illegals.
I remember a time when there were others in this country who did “cheap labor”. That was before anybody & anything got government programs! I think only disabled and/or sick people should get it. I’m believe in Medicaid. They should throw out Medicare!
Ctlawyer -“The Marines that protect US Embassies are under the control of the DOD.”
No one said not! Stop confusing the issue.
“That is a fact, it has nothing to due with a court of law and an imagined charge of negligence that has never been brought by a prosecutor.”
Just because it wasn’t prosecuted, doesn’t mean she isn’t responsible!
Again, it was Hillary’s responsibility to protect the embassy in Libya!
So why do you keep defending her?!?
Ctlawyer -“Health…it’s obvious you dislike Clinton”
Obviously!
“and seem to like Trump.”
No, I’m not for Trump, but another Republican.
Ctlawyer -“I made a statement that Trump is worse than Hillary., in the end the Marines are DOD employees, not State. That’s what I pointed out.”
This isn’t a court of law! Trump is Not guilty of negligence that caused the death of an ambassador & other Americans!
“It doesn’t matter if the Secy of Defense knew of the danger or not”
It does matter – it absolves him of negligence. OTOH, it was Hillary’s responsibility to protect the embassy in Libya!
Ctlawyer -“The Secretary of State is NOT responsible for defense of embassies. The Secretary of Defense is.”
“She has to request Marine or other armed forces from the DOD and they are the defenders”
You’re twisting the logic – typical Democrat!
She was negligent in knowing what the actual threat was to the embassy. Who said the DOD knew the seriousness of the situation?
She had to inform them!
“Trump is the worse choice.”
Why are you posting this? Because you must vote Democrat, even if it puts the country in danger!
I just proved that you can’t trust Hillary. Give s/o else a chance.
The problem with Hillary is that she won’t be able to defend us in this scary world! Even Obama had terrorism here in California.
She couldn’t even defend the embassy in Libya!
Joe -“Sam, you’re correctly describing rodef/nirdaf as applicable between yehudim. Only. If an aino yehudi is planning to kill a yehudi he has a different status than a yehudi who is planning (but not actively running after) to kill another yehudi”
“I have to disagree with your analysis. Unless the Rambam tells us what the din would be in the case of an Eino Yehudi, how could you assume they are different?”
The problem here is who says he didn’t have a Din of Rodef?!?
It’s typical that many posters here are defending the Medina!
Just like a Habomacteres is a Din Rodef – so here. How do you know he didn’t have an explosive device?!?
Technical21 -“Health- not sure I understand your question. Actually, I searched on YouTube for singers, and he was one of the names that came up. He lives in Lakewood”
You answered the question. I live in Lakewood too, but I never heard of him. Once upon a time, Lakewood was small and if you didn’t know them, you could hear about them. Not anymore!
It’s like BP.
Technical21 -“We booked Yaakov Petro for $450.”
Where from?
Matan1 -“Show me that he’s a Communist. Don’t go tell me to read some article”
There’s a reason I told you to read the article. It’s not just a one-liner! It’s a whole article – why he’s a Commie!
Matan1 aka C.Hall -“Come on Health, what has Sanders said that makes him a Communist?”
From the NY Post:
Title of article:
By Paul Sperry January 16, 2016
Read the article!
It’s amazing to me how many “Frum” Jews are in favor of Communism!
Technical21 -“We’re definitely looking for a Litvish singer, not Chassidish.”
You can also try one of the Brodt sons’. Again Idk how much he charges, but I don’t think he’s expensive!
DY -“Health, no, you need the wine to make you sleepy”
Who says?!? I did some research and found this:
“Yalkut Yosef 695:14 rules like the Orchot Chaim and makes no mention of sleeping. Rav Mordechai Eliyahu in MaAmer Mordechai 64:36 who seems to agree.”
DY -“So they go to their rav who says he should follow the Rema’s shittah, as recommended by Mishnah B’rurah, to drink more than usual and go to sleep.”
What if you sleep first & then drink? Are you Yotzay?
Homer -“Clinton=Liar (emails that she knew nothing about anyone?)”
Wrong – much more than that!
She couldn’t protect the embassy in Libya, how can she protect us if she becomes Pres?!?
“Sanders= Socialist”
Wrong again! Sanders = Communist.
Technical21 -“We’re definitely looking for a Litvish singer, not Chassidish.”
Try Reinman from Lakewood. Idk how much he charges.
Veltz meshugener -“After observing yeshiva boys for a long time in Lakewood, and I also constantly see bachurim hitchhiking to fast food restaurants across town, and there have been several FATAL car accidents lately involving those bachurim.”
“I live in Lakewood and I pick up Bochurim for rides -only when they are HH in a safe spot and where I can pull over safely. Whether s/o has been killed/hit or not is irrevelant, I’ve seen many Bochurim HH in a dangerous way and many don’t wear reflectors at nite.”
I see nothing has changed here!
I had a ride last night & I wasn’t hitching, but a lot Buchirim were. The person I had ride with, stopped to pick up 2 guys hitchhiking, standing in the street, without any reflectors!
BTW, they weren’t from R. Gellerman’s yeshiva.
Queen -“Does it occur to you that these women are possibly being mistreated and therefore are opting for divorce?”
I’m sure there are women that are slapped around and they should get divorced. And there are women who are so spoiled that they demand everything in the world!
They have a name for this – JAP!
MTAB – good point!
What does also occur is that others pushed her off! These women are not interested in making Sholom, but they must always get their way.
I feel bad whomever crosses their path, including their spouse!
All those Jewish libs, like some who post on YWN, want us to end up like Europe! I’m not for Trump, but another conservative. If it comes down to Hillary vs. Trump, how could anybody vote for Hillary?
Btw, did you hear what happened today in Belgium?!?
Matan1 -“Health, locking up terrorists and killing terrorists are not mutually exclusive,”
And where did I say we can’t kill ANY Terrorists? Time to brush up on your reading skills!
TLIK -“Try this example.”
You’re correct with your example. I think though most cases involve something like that happened to me! A regular marriage, but s/o with an agenda decided to destroy it!
Matan1 -“Health, they are locked up because they are terrorists.”
I Know That! So why did you comment on my post of “You didn’t address my main point! Here it is again: “This country is so liberal, like Israel, we can’t even kill actual Terrorists!””; with we got Obama Bin Laden?!?
TLIK -“There’s enough blame to spread around, between societal and cultural values, parental role models, the serious deficiencies in chosson and kallah preparation, the lack of education on fundamental interpersonal midos in yeshivos, schools, and seminaries, the trend to glorify the lifestyles founded on dependency, etc”
These are all true! But you forgot one main reason, which applied also to me. The fact that others got involved with their Loshon Hora & most importantly with their Motzay Shem Rah!
Matan1 -“I don’t understand your point.”
That’s quite obvious!
“What does Guantanamo have to with this, and why does that make us tyrants?”
Because, why are they locked up, if they aren’t Terrorists?!?
Oh, I know, because we’re tyrants.
Abba-S -“B)Divorces are granted by the state courts and in most cases the wife is granted more than she is entitled to, which results in the husband withholding the Get creating more problems.”
The first part is true, not necessarily the last part! Sometimes the husband doesn’t withhold the Get. Sometimes he does, not necessarily for the reason you stated.
“C)People fail tests all the time and it’s not the end of the world. A child may fail a test it doesn’t mean he will the course. King David failed the test when it came to Bat Sheva but still the Mesiach will come from his children.
D) There is a divorce crisis caused by too many people getting into a relationships that they should never gotten into. Maybe in high school there should be a required course where everyone researches civil court divorces cases so that they understand what can happens in divorce”
IDK if there’s a crisis. And there’s a lot of reasons people get divorced. Saying that people shouldn’t have gotten into the marriage in the first place is the epitome of hindsight!
Matan1 -“We can’t kill terrorists? Last I checked, Obama got Bin Laden!”
WoW! Soon you’ll tell me – we got the two in San Bernardino!
Ever hear of Guantanamo detention center?!? Tell me – why did they lock them up? I know – because we’re a bunch of American tyrants!!!
You didn’t address my main point! Here it is again: “This country is so liberal, like Israel, we can’t even kill actual Terrorists!”
Avi K -“Not to mention the fact that a least one general has implied that the armed forces would mutiny if he gave orders to kill terrorists’ families and the like.”
You just proved Liberalism is mental disorder. Stop with the conspiracy theories! This country is so liberal, like Israel, we can’t even kill actual Terrorists. Ever hear of Guantanamo detention center?!?
SJ -“Why do the frum always vote Democrat?”
Look, a lot of Frum guys have become Republicans.
Anyway, how could you call them Frum, because the next DemonCrat president will push Gay marriage for the whole country?!?
AbbaS -“The point I am trying to make is that divorce may solve the fighting on one level.”
You obviously didn’t understand my view. I agree with you that divorce should only be used as a last resort, but your example didn’t prove anything! The only thing you see from your example, is that the court’s don’t know what they’re doing!
Mammele -“as to whether he meant to blame the father for not being involved enough”
Even if he was trying to blame fathers, I let it slide off me. But guys like Yichusdik, seem to take posters seriously. I’ve enough self-esteem not to let it bother me!
Mammele -“Health: Abba S wasn’t blaming the father for not being involved in his kids’ lives,”
Yes he was! Here are his quotes:
“and divorce is a failure I believe,” “if the father would have had a greater influence on his children’s life growing up they might still be frum and not have problems with the police.”
Who is he blaming the failure of divorce? It might be also the wife, but he squarely puts the blame on the father! I think you also have a problem with reading comprehension.
Abba-S -“Friends and relatives only get involved when they find out about it. The course teaches the couple to resolve the problem between themselves and not reveal their problems to others.”
BTW, it’s normal to tell friends & relatives, but it’s not normal for them to get involved!
“I am not a sitting -chair quarterback,”
Of course you are!
“I believe, if the father would have had a greater influence on his children’s life growing up they might still be frum and not have problems with the police. While I will agree that not every divorce results in such dramatic problems many do.”
How do know it’s his fault? Maybe it’s the court’s fault? Did you ever learn Al Todin Ess Chavero Ad Shemagaih El M’komo?
AbbaS -“A conflict resolution course should be a requirement before a couple could be married”
That’s nice. And how do you think that will help friends and/or family to not get involved?!?
Don’t be a sitting – chair quarterback!
OURtorah -“There should be opportunity for the couple to get to know each other in a more natural way without a shadchan in between being the communication”
You sound like you’re MO!
Idk how many dates you’ve been on with a Shadchan in-between, but the way your describing it, is not the way it is! After a few dates, the couple goes on their own.
Queen -“That is because, according to a gittin dayan I knew personally, who isn’t with us any longer, 90% of the divorce in his bais din were the husband’s ‘fault’.”
What do you mean by “who isn’t with us any longer”?
Do you mean the “Rabbi” who was put in jail for beating reluctant husbands to give their wives Gitten?
Queen -“The women who go out with them who are scared off by the bright red flags.”
So you’re saying, it was the women friends who decided that the couple should get divorced?!? No impartial Rabbonim or therapists?!?
Squeak -“I don’t think he has anything against Muslims either. He is ashamed that we are too weak to truly stand up against terrorism and wipe it out.”
I personally don’t want Trump to be Pres., but another Republican!
That said – I listened to his speech about the Judge and that they let the guy free. Trump said he’s an ISIS supporter. This country has a problem with terrorism, and it was caused by the DemonCrats!
Queen -“while the men, are simply not marriage material, and remain single.”
Whose criteria is it (not marriage material), yours or s/o else’s?
