    You forgot to write the main punchline “police believe it was not an antisemitic or racial act”

    Can you imagine if a jew stabbed a black man in crown heights. Rev AL would be all over it. Of course, dog bites man is not a headline, but man bites dog is.

    Years ago when all the frum jews were selling their homes in CH to Shcoirim , and moving to BP and Willie etc. my father and many others worked very hard to keep the neighborhood Jewish.

    today once again , many frum jews from BP and willie Flatbush etc are coming to CH , but this time to buy and flip homes to non jews.
    the Chutzpa is unreal.

    We are our own worst enemy.

    3,500 Shluchim (including my own family) will be in CH from today for the Kinus. There aren’t enough cops to protect the area. It’s worrying, this is a copycat attack, no question.

    Here in EY our thoughts are with all our fellow Yidden in Crown Heights. We are worried about the Matsav there and are davening on your hehalf. May Moshiac come soon and all of you there return to the safety of BP and Williamsburg where Hashem truly wants you to be.
