I agree - the 13 year old would have told the girl to listen to the guy and stay off his yard and all of the others would have given a group apology about it and hoped their parents wouldn’t find out and cut their allowances.

For the same reason George Z. They want to fight but don’t want to lose the fight and they will prevent it by any means necessary.

I live in Houston and ill thank you not to compare her to our horses.

Yeah, all those bombings and beheadings in the Middle East must be Breitbart.

Love chatting with you! 😘

It’s easier to get kosher/halal meat when the communities are near each other too.

There were definitely incidents. I do not mean to make light of real discrimination faced. And, it goes without saying that an enormous amount of Muslims in Khalil (Hebron) have been massacred and expelled by the Israelis. We can find incidents of discrimination and violence, everywhere.

I live in Sharon and am an Orthodox Jew and can attest to this. My synagogue works side by side with the mosque, the Islamic Center of New England-Sharon, organizing interfaith meetings and actions. When a Sharon teenager (Ezra Schwartz) was killed in a terrorist attack in the West Bank last year, the Imam was one of…

I grew up around rich people, yes. But I was raised by parents with a mindset that money was something to be saved and withheld, not by parents who spent it to nearly the level of many, if not most, of my peers.

My parents were both professionals. I grew up in a house on a lake. At his peak, my dad owned six cars. I attended a fancy private high school. So there was that. On the other hand, my father, who was born in the mid 1930s, was a miser who repaired his shoes with duct tape and saved and reused aluminum foil. I knew I…

Are you really alllivesmattering someone for saying that Jews are scapegoat targets?

Under the Obama administration, expedited removal was used only within 100 miles of the border for people who had been in the country no more than 14 days. Now it will include those who have been in the country for up to two years, and located anywhere in the nation.

I have answered and repeated myself and what others have tried to say, I even used capital letters. Nothing worked, so yes, I give up.

Omg, you can not be this obtuse?!

I agree with this, although I’m sure Trump has made his share of anti-semitic jokes in his time (like the racist jokes we know he’s made). The real issue here is this weird reaction he and all the Trumpers have. They’re pissed anyone is talking about racism or anti-semitism at all, because that’s “divisive.” In the…

It’s not a competition but coming into a post about hate crimes against one group to say that another group has it worse will surely win some kind of an award

“This really shouldn’t be a contest on suffering.”

Absolutely. They happen in Canada. My synagogue in Toronto had swastikas spray-painted on the walls in the 1980s, and had to build a permanent security guard post at the front door in the late 1990s / early 2000s because of the threats. This has never abated, it has always been happening, and they keep doing it…

My son goes to a lovely and amazing pre-school in a Jewish temple. The pre-school is mostly secular, but they observe Jewish holidays and do some appropriate crafts to go with the holidays. I love that he’s learning a little about other religions, but stories like these hit too close to home.
