Mayor Nir Barkat, who attended the event, said, “Breast cancer affects everyone, regardless of religion or race, and being aware could save more than one person. A person who saves one Jew it’s like he saved the world entire.”
Who is going to be the first one to complain that “pink is not a tzniusdikeh color”?
Hopefully the zealots didn’t protest the use of the color associated with the opposite gender. After all breast cancer can and does effect their daughters too.
To Nos. 1-3
Not even the most crazy chareidim would have a negative comment about such a worthy charity. Anyone who does deserves to have to deal with the tragedy of cancer.
It seems that diseases, that those who didn’t always have rights gets all the funding. AIDs and Breast Cancer are always being advertised for funding, has anyone ever seen a sign advertising to fund brain cancer research, lung disease, or Alzheimer’s? No, because everyone can get it.
