Kiryas Joel, Monroe, NY – No Trick or Treating in the Village

    18

    Kiryas Joel, Monroe, NY – Must have seemed like an easy target for kids bent on mischief for Halloween – a community of peaceful Hasidim with tons of densely packed homes to smack with eggs.

    But the five high school students – three boys from Monroe-Woodbury and two girls from Washingtonville – who drove into Kiryas Joel with cartons of eggs got a scary surprise when angry residents stopped their car and got into an altercation with two who got out.
    As a crowd gathered about 9:30 p.m. at Bakertown Road and Israel Zupnick Drive, the driver hit the gas and sped away, leaving his two buddies to fend for themselves, Investigator Christopher Quick of the New York State Police said. One headed for the hills, and the other was detained until state troopers arrived.

    The stranded mischief makers, bruised and sore, came to the state police barracks in Monroe and got tickets for disorderly conduct, Quick said. They are due in court tomorrow morning.

    WAS THE EGGS KOSHER? I think that’s why they where beaten up…. Because it wasn’t kosher eggs, had it been kosher maybe it wouldn’t have happened….

    Oh, I agree. They have no business throwing eggs. But should they be beaten up for that? I don’t think so.

    If you go somewhere to throw eggs, and that somewhere is a close knit community with its own security patrol, you better be ready for the consequences. Mischief night is not a US national holiday last time I checked, and throwing eggs is a misdemeanor for which these punks will be prosecuted regardless of whether they were roughed up in KJ.

    If you go where you don’t belong you’re asking for trouble? Who decides where you don’t belong? For a long time, the Jews were told that they didn’t belong anywhere but in a ghetto. Are you in agreement with that?

    The two who got left behind now have a pretty good picture of who is NOT their friend.

    As the saying goes; a friend will bail you out of jail but a really close friend will be sitting next to you in the cell saying “Man! we blew it, didn’t we?”.

    Hey, “ziskeit” – I know you are insinuating that it is a bad thing but this time the headline was fine and there was nothing wrong with “peace-loving Hassidim”. Hope the punks were gived a real shake-down.

    Serves them right. If you go where you don’t belong, you’re looking for trouble.

    they should make these lowlife punks serve as janitors in the various mosdos in KJ for a term not to exceed 30 years. I think this is avery fair sentence.
