    The victim has been transported by Hatzolah to Jersey Shore Trauma Center, his injuries are not life threatening.

    Police say, there is no indication at this time that the assault was a bias crime.

    Abraham Muller, police chaplain, agreed.

    “Robbery seems to be the motive,” he said, adding that this was a crime common in urban areas, especially at night.
    “People have to know you don’t walk out at night alone,” he said. “People have a false sense of security living in the Orthodox community.”

    Wiseguy,

    How you gonna payback? Swing your Gemara at the thugs?

    The LPD has to hire real men, not the girly-men they have now – who know how to write tickets. Face it, Lakewood is Harlem.

    Time for holy Lakewood to take a few lessons from the holy Rav Meir Kahane HY”D. It is better to be feared than liked and since they already don’t like us, we should give them the restraining gift of fear, I believe the operative word here is “chapsum”. And let no Jew walk alone in Lakewood now.

    To all you bored and overdosed on steroids,

    They would beat him here too, just like Willy, but it is not a ghetto here; the guy was long gone before they even found the victim.

    To Yanky,

    I don’t even see JDL in NY anymore. And the Guardian Angels are almost non-existant. We aren’t in the 70’s anymore. Now we have Shomrim and other machers who practice Kochem v’oizem yodie.

    How could you blame LPD for this??? If they weren’t around it would be much worse!! Do you know how many “National” Gangs there are in lakewood??? They are busy just because you don’t see or hear about all the stuff they do doesn’t mean the cops aren’t doing anything!

    About them being at Wawa… If your a cop why shouldn’t you be allowed to have a break? They are human just like you and me they get a lunch or dinner break. And they don’t get it ontime everyday sometimes they don’t get to take a break for several hours because they are busy.

    About them giving tickets.. If we wouldn’t drive and park the way we do and actually obey the laws they wouldn’t be giving so many tickets. For some reason we jews think we could do what we want and when we get a ticket “oh he was such an anti-semite”

    Tommorow Reb Dovid Shustal will give a shmuz about keser torah, Reb Malkiel will talk about the Rambam in Hilchos Taanis “mitzva lizok ulhorea al kol tzara shelo tavo, Reb Yeruchem will cry, and Reb Yisroel will be missing in action. Same old same old.

NOW AS FAR AS YOUR THUG CALLING, IT SEEMS AS YOU ARE THE THUG YOU ARE REFERING TO.

    My son was mugged in CH several years ago at gunpoint by a gang and was knocked out and was treated at Kings County Hospital. He was returning late at night from a farbrangin. The best thing to do is to call a taxi when it is an hour that there are few Jews on the street. It is not smart to walk alone in the dark. This is stated in Pirkei Avos.

    I see the anger when a yid gets attacked and people are mad and trying to prevent it from happening again. Good.

    Too bad you guys cannot even muster the anger to confront the rebbis and or yeshivas who protected molestors and gave the molestors access to your children, again and again even after they knew what was going on. You don’t even have the guts, to take your children out of those yeshivas.

    The golus statement are crazy. You think before we went into golus, things like this did not happen of course it did. Otherwise, the Torah would not have to make laws and punishment if these things did not happen, because one does not make rules and punishment for thing that do not ever happen. You are creating a utopia world that never existed.

    PS The world we live in now is much safer and less violent than any time in history.

    Of course that is just a general fact and statement. And does not take away the pain that a bocher was attacked.

    maybe more Jews should learn how to fight and learn how to defend themselves with action. maybe take away 1/2 hour of learning and learn some marshal art.

    Stop with the safety watches, stop with the rabbonim, stop with the hocking around with the police department. LEARN TO DEFEND YOURSELVES. Take a self defense course. Be aware of your surroundings. Carry any legal means of protection (mace, pepper spray, etc.)

    Stop counting on others to protect you.

    There is a gang house directly across the street from the yeshiva. They play blaring music, sell drugs, and spray paint their jewish neighbors’ fences. The house they party and reside in is of course owned by a FRUM YID. He is profitting while others can not even walk out of their houses without fear. We should all try to do something about those in our midst who have no consideration for their fellow yidden.

    Better yet find out who the guy is and bring him to justice if you attack him yourselves you are asking for trouble, arrest, or attacking the wrong guy.

    if true kick him out of shul, make him an outcast until he evicts the tenants. You can evict people for drugs in NJ, pressure him. Why is he renting to gang members, normal people won’t rent it. If it is a house not an apartment building it makes that much easier. I am not saying the attacker came from that building, but i am sure, it does not help that it is there.

    Unless they are supplying the yeshiva guys

    TO “burnt out bmg guy Says”

    You’ve got alot a heck of alot of chutzpah to talk like that about OUR Roshei Yeshiva(AND NO I’M NOT IN YESHIVA-I WORK SOMETHING PROBABLY EVEN YOU DON’T DO.I sure hope you’re not in BMG anymore from the comments you made.It is because of the Roshei Yeshiva’s learning that Hashem has only hit us a “FEW” times.Don’t mean to c’v take away from those incidents but do we know how many incidents their learning Torah has prevented. Again I’m not a bench kvecher like you’d like to call me just a regular working guy that still remembers Kabbolas Hatorah and what it means to us.

    To Eli,

    I personally don’t agree with his tactic, but I understand his frustration. The Rabbonim haven’t done anything to stop these Frum slum lords from renting to lowlives, besides issuing some Kol Korei which has been ignored. The plain person in this town has trouble getting their kids into schools; Do you think these slumlords ever had trouble? If you make a decree, it has to be backed up by some sort of action to those that don’t comply. If the slumlords stop renting to lowlives (And I don’t mean every Goy) most of the criminal activity would go away. Gang members and Drug pushers need to rent houses to do their work because they need to move around alot so they don’t get caught. They are not interested in buying houses. Take away their base to do their work and they will move on!

    As a memebr of Shomrim of Baltimore, I completely agree with the memebr of the LCSW. Lakewood needs to continue to grow it’s civilian patrol like Shomrim in other frum neighborhoods. It has a proven track record. Community leaders need to alert community memebers to be alert and cognizant of their surroundings. Lakewood is obviously not the safe small town it once was. Be vigilant and organized and crime will decrease.
