-Article about Protest in the Jewish voice Lakewood residents not calm by assurances from politicians and law enforcement
"The Jewish community is up in arms about this. Lakewood children are terrified. They see and hear the news of what is happening to Jewish businesses in New York and Los Angeles.
 ” This protest is a gross injustice to the people of Lakewood. .... There have been posts saying “get those Jews, ruin Jewish business,” and more.
The Lakewood Police Department demanded from all stores in the downtown remove all valuables and possibly board up which many of them did. Obviously, the police know that chances are it is going to get violent and they are not going to protect property.
"They are willing to sacrifice Jewish property and more just to pander to the far left so to further advance their political interests.”
" a young man in his late 20s and a resident of Lakewood told the Jewish Voice that he was completely prepared to confront the protestors on Shabbos. “This protest on Shabbos is putting a lot of residents of Lakewood on edge,
Why is the Board of Education wasting my taxpayer dollars on an issue that not related to education in anyway??   Little Children Matter! Jewish Lives Matter!!!,” Sharabi declared. read full article HERE

  2. If heaven forbid somebody would HACK my account and I would have VILE COMMENTS posted in my name-i think i would post a true subsequent comment making it well known that the comment was not from me and that i highly protest the thoughts posted.This is 2020 -we can say we were hacked- had identity theft-people put out letters in other people's name-it's endless-but what stands to logic in my opinion is that there is no documentation of repudiation to a comment so abhorrent, until now, when all of a sudden this paragon of peace and honor is a 24 yr old guy, who appears to be making good choices and taking a responsible approach to his future, and i wish him well, but if we are banking on him, to reassure us of a peaceful and caring tribute with no violence, we must all be aware, that there are bigger people than him at play here. There are anarchists with trucks and instruments of violence and rioting, orchestrating massive riots and looting - maybe Lakewood doesn't hold that much temptation for them-maybe they can't walk out with a pizza oven, and maybe they won't risk their violence on Harold's Wonderful toys - May G-d protect all downtown-but they destroyed LA, NewYork, Chicago, DC, I certainly pray and hope it will be peaceful, but don't close your eyes. Stay Safe EVERYBODY-

  3. You are so right-look how they admitted that they published a study for hydrochloriquinine-a FALSE study-when people's lives are at stake-This from our Medical Society-we are living in a scary age-our best people seem to sway at the slightest whim-no wonder G-d send a PANDEMIC-maybe he wants us to CLEAN UP and LIVE HONEST TRUTHFUL LIVES- Anyway my mom taught me that it's hard to change the world but it's not hard to change yourself - if each person worked on being truthful, righteous, sincere, and hardworking - i will try to join them :)

  4. It is not a second wave in EY. It is the first which they tried to squelch. Israel is the greatest proof that lockdowns don't work, period.

    1. You can’t compare EY to the US, since there everybody lives in apartment buildings crammed up on top of each other. Just look at the facts, obviously the lock down did work here so why are you going to data from EY which has nothing to do with anything.

  5. I’m finding the giving of a sidder, challah and a cookie about jewish prayers to be so off at this protest on Shabbos . It’s off on so many levels. What am I missing? Why can’t we just give a cold bottle of water and bag of chips? Nothing jewish !

  6. The Shutdown is now proven as a fake Democrat agenda. You can protest, loot or Riot while holding hands, but people cannot mourn their family members or worship their god.

  7. ThT guy who is promising to confront them, is a bigger danger than anything else. The chances are that it will be quiet and peaceful. Don’t do anything to jeopardize that

  8. LAKEWOOD REAL ESTATE TAXES were due JUNE 1. People are paying interest from MAY 1.
    Many surrounding towns still suspended RE Taxes due to the hardship of the pandemic but Lakewood very quietly did not and now many people, especially seniors will be paying more taxes than normal. can Mayor Ray Coles and the askonim for the people like Lichtenstein and Miller explain why we who cant open small businesses or enforce rent that is due why we MUST pay REAL ESTATE Taxes??

  9. Because when you're guaranteed reelection there's no incentive to do a good job.
