Bill D’Blasio Warns "The Jewish Community"

[Chapshnell]

Opinion: I have a feeling Trump wanted to respond to Deblasio but was probably advised it would give it visibility to 70m plus tweeters etc. those 2 hate each other & its a bit personal for Trump too

[CountValentine]

He said in the Tweet just before that he was referring to what happened in Willi

That means his tweet was even more accurate. He hears reports of a large Jewish gathering again and checks it out for himself. It turns out to be true.

Please quote all of @Chapshnell's other comments on this forum where you can feel his exasperation through the screen at the gatherings and rule breaking. The thing I can say for him is that he actually puts himself out there in real life trying to help and make a difference. He's not just screaming and banging his keyboard on DDF. And I only know him from a handful of text messages, I'm sure he does far more than I know of.

1 million percent!!! I'm sorry @Chapshnell for highlighting your comment, it was just the most convenient example to illustrate my point. I'm not mad at individuals, just the general sense of complacency we've come to, where we're just ok with not being ok with it.

What good can possibly come out of singling out a religion? It was so dumb to tweet that!
Cuomo mentioned a while back “if people dont stop playing basketball in the parks were going to close it down”. He was speaking “in general terms”. Thats the way to do it! Cmon

Who said it wasn't true?

A couple hundred Jews (out of more than 1MM jews in NYC) were idiots.
What if it was a couple hundred Hispanics? Muslims? Blacks? Would he make the same Tweet? Would you consider that Tweet to be racist?

Whos OK with this funeral? Whoever I was speaking to says it was a dumb idea. But these are 2 dif issues. I dont have any beef with you. Aderaba, I mostly agree with you

Good night folks. I'll leave you with this thought experiment.

Can you imagine if Trump tweeted this? https://t.co/ro0LkECpzF

One issue is anti-Semitism and another is lives being lost because of behavior in some cases. Both issues should be able to be addressed without going after each other. You all care deeply about both.

No one is ok with the funeral. But we're content with just not being ok with it. Meanwhile, the least respected mayor in the US makes a stupid anti-Semitic generalization, and Himmel Geshrai!

There's no way to justify the tweet, it's anti-semitic. And the double standard is sickening.
There's no way to justify the crowds, it's anti-torah. We need to do better.

I dont think deblasio is an anti semite. I think hes dumb. He didnt think.
Having said that, his policies in office have been brutal to NYC residents.
I left NYC because it became unbearable

My issue is with the prioritization of those issues.

[CountValentine]

I was trying to be PC by addressing the crowd issue indirectly.
If you are all fighting with each other no one will be left for me.

Im not content with it, but I also understand perfection or close to it doesnt exist. You have crazies out there who just dont care. In every community

The forums are packed comments of people telling about such funerals.
