R’ Shloimy’s life was tragically cut short when he was stabbed to death today by an inmate at a mental health facility that he operated in South Jersey. This tragedy has plunged the Lakewood community into deep mourning once more after a spate of tzaros has stricken the community.

ReplyDeleteReal answers are needed to what has been happening. Not speech re-runs
Huh?
DeleteWhat are you talking about ? The yid was murdered by a mentally ill client. What more information do you need?
DeleteWas the funeral time confirmed? I believe body not released.
ReplyDeletewe ignored a murder by stabbing claiming it was a crazy person, and god gave us a murder by stabbing by a crazy person.
ReplyDeletewe ignored it? it was posted and discussed everywhere. do you know what the word "ignored" means?
Deletealso, thanks for speaking for G-d.
It's natural for a person to seek to point fingers at others when there's a wake-up call. We much prefer to think that 'I' am not included in this call; this call is for everyone else. So we twist ourselves into pretzels to point fingers at others. As long as "I have nothing to do with this, other than to shout down at you."
DeleteIt's probably more logical to see both unfortunate cases - which rattled each and every one of us - as a wake-up call to each and every one of us. We all know what we need to work on, and that's likely where we should focus our individual efforts.
Thank you for reading my typing.
To view these two unfortunate incidents as 'natural' is something the Rambam refers to as being cruel.

Public tragedies demand public responses.
What should we be working on?
2:01 where did you come up with this? A source for your chiddush is necessary.
DeleteReality is that a 'public response' absolves you from any hard, personal work.
How so
Deleteegla arufa was a very public response
