Hasidic's hate cyclists?
Cant think of single thread we've had with the Hasidic's as a point of view. Thought this article was absolutely hilarious.
Scantily clad hipster cyclists attracted to the Brooklyn neighborhood made it difficult, the Hasids said, to obey religious laws forbidding them from staring at members of the opposite sex in various states of undress. These riders also were disobeying the traffic laws, they complained.

If it were easy to not look at women it wouldn't be an accomplishment in their religion. Talk about a cop out!
I like how the "Oh and they are breaking traffic laws too" is thrown in there.

They're not hasids, they are Hasidic Jews which is basically a few conservative sect of Judaism that believes in fundamental laws and following the torah to the letter and generally favoring older traditions, etc.
They are like the Hutterites/Mennonites/Quakers of Judaism. They are the ones you see with long uncut or curly sideburns because of a law prohibiting cutting hair from the sides of the face.

It's all part of the global conspiracy along with the banks... I believe there is a reference to "the Mexican JiriHrdina" in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion...

That's funny, I go through that neighborhood every day back and forth from work.
Generally, I feel like they are pretty gruff and rude to anyone not part of their community. They complain non-stop about anything and everything that doesn't conform to their rules, and fail to realize they live in a free country where others are allowed to live their life too. I remember a few months ago, some hot-dog vendor in the neighborhood accidentally bought some hot dog meat that wasn't kosher.....there was a near riot because of it (the only reason there wasn't was because the vendor agreed to THROW AWAY all the equipment that happened to touch the bad shipment).

Btw, this issue has come up before. I prefer this photo.
I'm not sure I'd be able to keep it in my woolen pants either....

There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of others and the Jews.

Tell them basically to suck it up buttercup. You can do what you please in your home, but outside its a free for all. If you dont like, move back to the middle east.

My brother in law works in a slaughterhouse. You should hear the stories about kosher slaughter day.
