Do they want weddings with more then 10 people?
Talking about what's illegal

Not about a wedding in a dining room with 10 people
Nobody said that either liar

It is despicable behavior to scream at someone in front of their family, regardless of whether he broke a law, which I believe he didn't.

Only in Jersey...
It is actually everywhere. I remember the same thing happening to Sarah Sanders and others.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Just ask McConnell, Paul Ryan & much of the Republican leadership over the last decade+.

I don't mean on DDF. I don't recall Sanders being celebrated here.

Although I think some did celebrate harassment of Rand Paul.

It was despicable then and it is despicable now. At the end of day these people are fathers and mothers going out with their family for dinner. And don’t deserve to be harassed and humiliated in front of their kids. There’s no excuse for such behavior. It’s a shame seeing people stooping to Maxines level.

You seem to forget the coordinated violence they & their families were subject to on a regular basis. It came to a point they needed police protection wherever they went.
Just mentioning both doesn’t make it fair & balanced.

That is because it has become common place on the left, while this is an isolated event. (Feel free to point to other incidents.)

You were doing so good but couldn't help yourself going there.

While I understand the mentality on the satmar side, if the government is picking on them etc given that a rebbishe wedding is a cause of great rejoicing for all chasidim etc.

Then I read about people dying and wonder what cognitive dissonance exists?

I've heard all the arguments, everyone got it, corona isn't killing people.. etc etc and people are still dying.. so you can have your wedding... It's yihareg v'al yavor, the goyim are doing it.

It's a massive chillul hashem.

https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/222869/jewish/What-Is-a-Chassid.htm

Yanki Tauber is a great writer (is it his grandfather's genes?) and that's a very nice piece. I wonder: How those that consider themselves Chassidim but haven't studied in Tomchei Temimim feel about this portrayal? Could we have some input?

And one major thing that I think is missing from the piece is that a Chossid has a Rebbe (what the relationship between Chossid and Rebbe is or should be, would have been nice to see Tauber write about, but the omission is glaring).
