I think this thread should be closed. It has morphed from a discussion of a liberal school official making a Jewish slur to having progressives (and one conservative) pile on to encourage more Jew-hate, including videos showing Jews in a bad light. Absolutely disgusting.

What a pathetic thread.

No anti-Semitism should be defended regardless of whether it is done by a Democrat or a Republican.

However, keep quiet unless she can substantiate because that kind of talk is just inflammatory and IS antisemitic.
She might be more effective going to the leadership (rabbi) privately and having them deal with individuals with less drama.
I live in New Jersey and there’s a lot of interfaith coalitions and people in government and clergy who work hard to make sure everyone gets along and behaves appropriately.
Are you being sarcastic? You can't seriously think this is real, right?

Lefty continues to deflect.

Then there’s a group based in Tim’s River, NJ called “ Rise up Ocean County” that seriously opposes what they perceive as over development within the county based on the massive influx of Hasidic Jews. This group focuses on the environmental damages and changes to quality of life, although the undertones are there.

The courts in Ocean County are overwhelmed with litigation initiated by both sides. Some of the zoning tactics being used in some municipalities appear a tad reminiscent of historical tactics used to keep out public housing and / or racial/ ethnic changes in demographics throughout the US. It’s challenging to distinguish between anti Judaism vs NIMBYism.

These ^ challenges are unique to areas of NJ and N.Y. state, not the same as what’s going on in Brooklyn , a variation of the “ ****- out game” whereby mostly black youths in urban areas seek vulnerable people on the street and attempt to knock them out with a single punch to the head of face. While some of these unprovoked attacks have occurred in Hassidic communities in Brooklyn, they most certainly are not limited to Jewish people or NYC. The elderly, including elderly black people, disabled and homeless people have been particularly vulnerable.

I would love the opportunity to talk with the 24 year old woman who has been charged with the hate crime in Brooklyn to attempt to understand her motivation. Speculation on my part is she does not know. Believe her.
this poster continues to deflect and subtly give the perp a possible out. Disgusting.

I live in the area so I am very familiar with the different groups. Both can be lying sleezebags. They both feel justified in their agendas. Believe what you want but my thoughts come from my interactions and the interactions of friends and family whom I trust.

I think you need to stop thinking that a criticism of a Jewish group, new to the neighborhood, and behaving badly and possibly breaking fair housing laws is antisemitic. It wouldn’t matter if they were purple elephants.
Certainly physically attacking or threatening violence is a hate crime. Bringing up possible illegal or bad behavior is something no one should be afraid to do for fear of being labeled a jew hater.
As I’ve said, there are lots of people in senior roles who are working to diffuse the situation so I have faith it’s going to work out.

I also want to add that there’s another group who are not exactly winning in all of this mess. Hispanics, some illegal, living with illegal or just generally not trusting of authority are being taken advantage of and are not speaking out.

Most do not have any issues with Jewish people so stop the hysterics. By attacking ALL black people as anti-Semites you are needlessly creating enemies from allies.
I've been reading everything you typed so far. So let's see you live in a city of 40 Million people, you're comparing it to a city of 300,000 which has a Hasidic population of around 500 people. You bring Israel into this thread in an attempt to hijack it when in fact Hasidic Jews are not pro Israel. And you have the gall to state Jews are the problem. Are you kidding???

It doesn't matter what you are as your bigotry against all Jews is as clear as a SoCal day.

Well here is a link from a Los Angeles MSM from 2019:

Hate crimes targeting Jews and Latinos increased in California in 2018, report says

https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/...703-story.html

So when you type that there is no antisemitism in LA, who is correct? You or the LA Times?

Yes. Her posts REAK of antisemitism. Add in that she just complained about Jews making a deal about "a few powerless random black people'. THAT is how she describes anti-Semites assaulting Jews, killing some and permanently destroying the lives of others! "Powerless." She is just angry that Jews won't shut up about being repeatedly assaulted by blacks in Brooklyn and are thus drawing light to the fact that SOME black people do indeed behave like despicable beings.

1) When did I state that anti-Semitism doesn't exist in Los Angeles?


2) In your article, the hate crimes against Jews occurred in areas such as Newport Beach and Ojai; not a lot of black folks in those areas. But I guess that doesn't fit the thread agenda
