It’s racist of you to imply that illegal immigrants can pose a risk even if they’re unvaccinated.
Been great!
I didn’t actually think it was edited in any way, but good disclaimer, anyway.
answer: no. It seems only if I post a link…?
Did yet-to-be approved posts stop turning up in yellow?
FF, they give you computers in yeshiva?
Safer than smuggling it illegally and selling it, but a smaller profit.
you have an interesting twist on the word “paraphrase”.
Health, I didn’t miss the point. You missed a few vital English classes.
Health,
Sorry; I don’t write the laws.But you did offeryour opinion on what it should be.
Yidd23 -“It should be legal to eat dog and cat meat”
Absolutely NOT! Unwanted animals that cannot be placed in shelters should be euthanized or kept alive, instead of eaten! We need these animals for science, especially medical science.
Health,
<emThe avg. American won’t eat cats or dogs! Maybe they do in other countries.So basically it should be illegal to eat cats and dogs since the avg. American won’t eat them.
My assumption why there are tough laws is because of the PC that was created by our liberals!Or maybe because of the though laws created by liberals.
Health,
In other words, there is a purpose for humans!
There are very few needs for humans for cats & dogs! How about for science?!?How about for food?
Why are there tough laws for using cats & dogs, especially when they can be used for science?!?
Beats me. But what does it have to do with PC?
Cows are used by humans for food (Milk & Meat)!
Are you incapable of following the discussion? OP said eating cats & dogs should be legal. You say, “no we need them for science.” I say, “use cows for science and eats cats.” You say, “We can’t use cows, because we eat them.”
“And what does it have to do with PC?”Why it’s very hard to get cats and dogs for Science.
PC stands for Political Correctness. It has nothing to do with tough laws.
Why should scientists use cats and dogs over cows?”
-They take up less space?
-Because they’re smaller.
-It’s cheaper
Granted, these are legitimate reasons as to why scientists should prefer cats and dogs over cows. But they don’t justify forbidding cats and dogs for citizens, but legalizing them for scientists. The law could allow mere citizens the same conveniences and economic advantages as scientists.And what does it have to do with PC?
Why should scientists use cats and dogs over cows?
I don’t.
Baruch Hashem I am privileged to be in Eretz Yisrael for R’ Shimon bar yochai’s Johrtziet, so I don’t know of any in Brooklyn. I will iy”h be here through Yom Yerushalayim, and will be saying Morid Hatal my entire stay, as per the custom here.
Try Touro in New York. They have many programs and they’re frum-friendly.
They do accept credits from yeshiva, and they’re schedule accommodates the Jewish calendar. However they (the Brooklyn branch, at least) hire teachers who spout blatant k’fira. They do not deny the charges. They just say that those professors charge less.
It seems though that shockingly those Kiddushins & Nisuins were nontheless chal and the couples were Halachicly married!
Are you a poseik, or are you quoting someone who was machshir them?
Mrs. Plony,
I need to get this off my chest: People who do kiruv, formally or informally, have a responsibility to promote independence of BT’s. If you have your little coterie of people whom you’ve ‘made frum’, but you keep them under your exclusive influence then you’re doing them a real disservice. Let them see how other observant people manage a Shabbos table or Pesach Seder; let them try a different shul or a different community.
If you claim that you’re ‘just like family’ for ‘your’ BT’s, then you should be committed to caring for them (and their descendants) in perpetuity – not just that you’ll get all the honor and glamour of walking them to the chuppah and being invited to siyums, etc., but be ready to support them (financially, not just emotionally) if their families reject them or if they have other emergencies.
What do the 2 things have to do with each other?
AviK, that refers to talking about inappropriate things, not using meaningless words which common society has decided are bad.
??????
What’s wrong with using curse words?
Since the OP seems to have raised the question only regarding ethnic and religious groups, I take the liberty of using pejoratives for many of the posters on this thread: You guys are idiots.
“Shvartze” is no more insulting than “black”; “Goy” than “Jew.” Granted, people could use certain tones of voice and contexts to turn a neutral word into an insult (including such words such as “tall” “black” and “doctors”), but no blame lies on people who use them.
Here are some real-life quotes from the above idiots.
Would she have preferred “goy”? I think I remember hearing that Arafat found that term offensive.
Oh, Arafat is am etiquette master now? I assume he also found the term “Jew” offensive.
. I don’t like them at all, even Goy, preferring non-Jew. One should also strive for lashon nekiah.
Just because one person may have been offended by a the term non-Jew doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with the term. Is there any sane person who thinks being called a non-Jew is offensive, in a world of rising anti-Semitism?
“Goy” was made into an insult by Jews who hate religious Jews (Sorry, I don’t use the senseless term “Self-hating Jew”). The word has been in use for centuries and won’t fall into disuse because “one person [or persons] may have been offended [or pretend to be offended] by a the term”.
Everyone’s making such a big deal out of this and it’s ridiculous. A) Everyone knows voter fraud exists. B) As iscrimna pointed out, there’s no law mandating him to concede to the winner. C) It was some more exaggerated bluff, basically saying Hillary’s horrible and there’s no way he’ll let her become president.
Leave him alone.
