Regardless of which side you may think is right or wrong, the thing that I find most disturbing is seeing these young children out there. It is reckless parenting to allow children to be out there.

These people belong in jail just like any other criminal thug or child abuser, however jail time is counterproductive, because it will paint them as “heros and raise their status in the community, (much like the rappers that raise their “street cred” by committing crimes and serving time, these people are no better than the aforementioned rappers)

1) Cut off all funding and entitlements, IE; welfare, food, food and rent subsidies to the families of these criminals. they’ll be forced to go out and work .this will accomplish 2 things , (a)they won’t have time to sit around causing mayhem, and (b)they will contribute to the tax base.

2) cut off all funding to Every “Rebbe” and chasidus that condone and even encourage this criminal behavior.

hit ’em where it hurts and it’ll stop immediately

You are an ignorant Jew hater.

The wicked Zionists invaded the holy land in which the chareidim and their ancestors had resided and lived a Jewish existence.

The wicked Zionists then decreed that Jews had to be shmaded in the Zionist army or else the Jew would have to starve as he could not legally find work.

Here, the wicked Zionists demonstrate that they want to shmad the chareidim by bringing immodesty into their neighborhoods.

I personally know of a few teenagers who are involved in this stuff and they have high functioning autism and are not controllable in these situations. They are controlled by the ones starting the hafganot. It’s a cult.

They are teaching children to use their fists to fight their fights. These protestors are true Zionists.
