True. This Ultra Orthodox Jew got beaten by the mob because they thought he was going to snitch on them: https://nypost.com/2020/10/07/jewish...-nyc-protests/

A Hasidic Borough Park resident was beaten — and blasted as a “snitch” — as riots raged in the neighborhood over state-mandated restrictions imposed during a COVID-19 surge there.

Berish Getz, 34, was standing on top of a trailer early Wednesday, recording video, when someone in the crowd shouted, “This is Getz!,” according to a relative who did not want to be identified.

The crowd started yelling that he was recording video in order to “snitch” and demanded that he stop, according to the relative.

Getz jumped down to avoid any further harm — but that made matters worse as the entire mob ganged up on him and beat him, the family member said. ...

Mostly peaceful


I'll never understand why people go to riots, and then are surprised when riots breakout.

Michelle Obama had it right when she tried to eliminate sugar crap from children's diets. Children - nor adults for that matter should be consuming that garbage on a regular basis.
Sugar makes money. Don't get me wrong, I totally agree with you.

Unfortunately, since Christianity is declining they need new members so they've watered down a lot of what was standard fare.

"Repent and convert" became "Jesus loves all and be who you wanna be!!!" LMAO.

As for Jews, they will NOT bow down. They live their faith. Of course, it's easy to attack them because Cuomo knows they won't put a bomb on the subway as radical islamists would definitely do.

I never liked Cuomo, but now I like him even less. I never fell for the whole "ohh Cuomo's been great during the pandemic"! No, he hasn't. Cuomo has literally sent people to die. In a non-clown world, he'd be arrested for criminal behavior against the elderly.

I agree with you a lot! And what you say of Cuomo is both comical and painful and, again, I do agree!:

Yes, you hit the nail right on the head referring to the Christian's last chance to make converts. It's funny how they easily change position to achieve this. You're also right that many times Jews will prefer to be killed than be subjected to another religion. ALSO, yes of course, Jews will never do what those brutally vicious bloodthirsty islamists do. It’s not in our nature.

Canovas, you write a lot of good sense. Why don't you become a member of city-data.com so I can give you stars for your contributing thoughts?

Of course it does. Just like keeping people diabetic is highly profitable. Type 2 diabetes is simply a late stage of insulin resistance of what happens when the diabetic had been mixing sugar with proteins and/or sugar with fat for years.

Glycates form in the blood as the liver cannot process more than a teaspoon of sugar (for women) or two teaspoons for men. Advanced glycation end products (AGE) turns your blood thick like caramel and reads like high cholesterol in the blood, but not as high glucose. Meanwhile the person is on their way to becoming a diabetic. Instead of doctors advising the patient to cut sugar entirely from their diets, which will absolutely bring down cholesterol, they give them medicine on controlling cholesterol. But that’s not what patients should do! But oh, the pharmaceutical companies are making a ****load of money!
