    takah: When you’re children reach your age they’ll be saying “I will tell you that if a teacher or school administrator had EVER given a mark less than an “A” to any of my children, that teacher or administrator would have felt my anger in a real way before the day was over.”

    Parents have the legal right to hit their children for disciplinary reasons. If it is excessive there can be issues.

    By extension, it used to be that teachers could use corporal punishment anywhere, in every US state. Including in every public school. But as the left encroached with their liberalism across the country, mainly starting in the 1960s and continuing ever since, they started banning them in schools in the more liberal states.

    As far as parents, if the leftist could have their way, they’d take away such parental rights as well.

    Yes. All things being equal, I generally prefer to vote for a gentile over a Jew. The Jewish politicians tend to have problems voting Jewishly, whereas a friendly gentile more often can vote for Jewish interests without having to worry how he’ll look among other goyim for doing so.

    And as things generally aren’t equal, more often than not there are gentiles more naturally inclined to vote for our values moreso than Jewish politicians.

    Jack, you are again acting hypocritically. I’ve pointed this out before and you still keep spewing the same lines. You refuse to support repealing state laws against murder, even though you acknowledge they are based upon Christian concepts of murder and not Jewish laws against murder. As was pointed out to you previously, in most states if you kill someone who broke into your home unarmed, you will be charged with murder, homicide or manslaughter. Even though under Jewish law you acted completely in self-defense, and had the absolute right to kill the intruder who broke into your home.

    Which clearly and unambiguously demonstrates the falsity of your hypocritical “declaration” that “I am an Orthodox Jew living in Galus. I advocate for laws that will allow me to live as an Orthodox Jew is Galus. I will advocate against christian murder laws.” (ftfy)

    Halevai today’s teachers had the courage and smarts to do it. Yesterday’s generation didn’t come out as spoiled as today’s generation. We need to reintroduce traditional Yiddishe disciplinary measures instead of being afraid of what the Goyim will think.

    Jack, let’s cut to the chase. Do you or do you not support me in advocating and hoping for Congress to pass a law that firmly and completely bans abortion nationally in all cases other than when the mother’s life is at risk — with when the mother’s life is at risk the law shall strongly and completely protect the right to abortion, but in all other cases it will just as strongly ban it?

    Let’s put the double talk aside of beating around the bush trying to pretend the reason you want to support abortion is only because of when the mother’s life is at risk, when in reality you’re only using that excuse to try to have abortion legal in other cases.

    Maryles is an open mevaze talmidei chachomim who promotes every left wing looney cause that’s in the news that day, concerning religion.

    No, the Reform apikorsum are not correct in this case. The only protection needed in anti-abortion laws are to protect the life of the mother. And all the laws provide that protection.

    Jack,

    1. Laurence Tribe is a left wing hack. When he offers his two cents, as he does here, it is only because his legal cause is on shaky footing. If it weren’t, he would not have to chime in.

    2. No states, repeat — no states at all, have banned abortion when the mother’s life is risk. This talking point is simply used by abortionists to attempt to legitimize killing babies.

    2. Ideally, women shouldn’t have to work and freely be able to choose to be housewives. It is Democrats who forced two incomes as a necessity for so many families by pushing women out of the home and into the workforce. The biggest losers are the children. A woman’s place is in the home.

    Presidential Executive Orders cannot and do not override state laws. America isn’t yet a dictatorship.

    You also must account for that the church censored the seforim of the Rishonim/Achronim in Europe. What most of them held about Christianity is unwritten, as a result.

    You missed the boat. How long has Tesla been in the auto business? And how long have Volkswagen, Toyota, Ford and Daimler been in the auto business? The fact that the baby outwitted the century old firms is the point.

    That the old boys network is climbing their way out of their self-dug hole is to be expected. They’re only trying to get back where they should have been long ago — before Elon Musk ate their lunch.

    I made no reference to any stock prices. Look at Tesla’s sales and market share. If you think it is because they lack competition, why haven’t you started a competitive business to them?

    And note that my previous comment was in response to someone claiming that he’s going to run the business into the ground and lose tens of billions of dollars. I didn’t hear you challenge that ill informed comment by pointing out that, if so, why is Musk one of the richest men on the planet today.

    This is very sweet how Musk messed up Twitter. It was a well deserved smack down of the far left wing run Twitter. Beautiful. Now Twitter is begging/trying to force Musk to buy them since their value has tanked.

    May all of Big Tech meet the same fate.
