1. What’s a disgusting article ! She would have better die Al kidush hashem then being saved by her avoda zara ! She doesn’t have the merit to die Al kidush hashem ! When will you open your eyes my brothers , when !!!

2. Wow! I’ve heard of bullet proof stockings but never bullet proof shaitel 😆

3. Told ya! Covering one’s hair, including wearing a sheitel, offers protection. We see it’s physical as well as spritual.

   B”H the woman was unharmed, but it’s open season on Jews in Brooklyn. It seems the police either are incapable or don’t care enough to stop these random attacks and find the perpetrators.

   So much for an ex-cop becoming Mayor.

4. Seriously? If the beads didn’t penetrate the sheitle then they would not have done serious harm without the sheitle…
   This was NOT a ‘shooting’ attack. ‘Shooting’ implies real bullets that are deadly………

5. time to carry women in America….the Worlds…..thankfully I am so happy to know this 21 year old will smile….

6. Eric Adams needs to focus on this non-ending crime and stop deflecting from this back to working in office 5 days a weeks:- Just a distraction from his real problems.
   sleepy joe needs to focus on this non-ending crime and stop deflecting from this back to reaching the Moon & Mars by 2025:- Just a distraction from his real problems.

7. The biggest issue is that this guy will be let out of jail in no time !! Explain to me what’s Pshat that people can do bad crime & then get let out if jail so fast

8. Long Island Yid – good one!

9. Maybe soldiers should just wear sheitel instead of helmets

10. To “emetof…..”, what a disgusting comment!! and where is comment moderation here? You cannot allow ppl to post blasphemous and libelous comments freely
    And anyway, those sheitels under shpitzels are generally synthetic, 100% kosher lmehadrin

11. Doesn’t sound like a real gun but a Airsoft replica. Basically a realistic toy that shoots plastic pellets. If it had been a real gun, she’d be dead.

12. I agree with Sugya25. Let’s stop fabricating nissim by sensationalizing stories. If it was a gunshot that was somehow deflected, that’s one thing, but it sounds like it was some low velocity projectile (maybe a gel blaster which is the latest thing kids are using) which would have given her minimal pain if any. Is it a neis that she didn’t feel any pain? And was it bizchus the shaitel? Every time we do this we take away from the impact of actual nissim (including the vey basic nissim of everyday life, cloaked in ‘nature’) like the boy who cried wolf.

13. shekersealofsatan,

    Instead of volunteering someone else to die Al kidush hashem why don’t you volunteer yourself?

14. and if she didn’t wear a sheitel she probably wouldn’t have been shot at at all

    the vast, vast majority of today’s sheitels are completely not tznius

15. Sounds like fake news. Women in Williamsburg don’t wear sheitels, not tzneisdig enough for them. They certainly don’t wear anything like the ones in the picture.

16. History Bluff,

    While they may not wear sheitels like the one pictured, many Williamsburg women most certainly do wear them, under an additional head-covering.

17. Fake news
    If it was a bullet she would be dead
    If it was not a bullet the wig didn’t do anything
    Most likely it was a BB gun or orbee gun and the most she would’ve gotten is a little sting

18. As a women of color I find this article very offensive

19. To the first comment:
    Did you know that Peninah in Nach, she lost 7 children. Please tell us the reason why she lost 7 children.
