    this needs to stop where is DA Haynes now.

    the community has to put a end to this racial fighting.

    Enough is Enough.

    Rather than the cops spending money after the fact looking for criminals, wouldn’t it be so much easier to have cameras on every street corner to PREVENT the crime, rather than trying to close the stable door after the horse has already bolted??

  • NEVER AGAIN!!!

    FOWD. BUCHER VICIOUSLY BEATEN LAST NIGHT, A 16 year old boy was found lying bloodied & unconscious on Albany between leferts and Empire after having been robbed and beaten (allegedly by two black males) WE WILL MARCH IN PROTEST today at 5pm from the site of the attack to the 71st precinct , with a clear and angry message that we and our families will not be harassed and assaulted at will, that the Jewish community will not be held hostage by any other ethnic groups in our neighborhood and that we expect a swift arrest of the perpetrators as well as the protection of the police which we deserve. NEVER AGAIN FORWARD TO EVERY CH RESIDENT

    Big News!
    Jew hits non Jewish boy, oh no the Jews are a bunch of racist, Al Sharpten and his followers immediately make a big Woo and calls down the media to crown heights and try to make a big commotion. Oh no it was a son of a cop, Brooklyn DA Charles Hynes gets involved and has the story not only blown out of proportion but make all the reports on this incident look like our community is made up of a bunch of hooligans who just constantly look out to make problems.
    Last night marked once again one of many attacks on our community, a young boy was viciously beaten and robbed, were is Al Sharpten, Were is Charles Hynes… why don’t they both get involved in such a situation are they both being bios? Isn’t it the district attorney job to hear both sides of a story, doesn’t he look into crime that takes placed both White/Jew on Black the same way as Black on White/Jew. Isn’t Al sharpten who claims to have the Black community support supposed to become a teacher, an educator during such a moment and to use his media connections for attention to show his own community that they should not lower the level of the black community by committing these crimes and end up having the world look down on them?
    This is the common feeling of us our community as much as we look down upon a alleged story of one of our community members hitting a non Jew, we also still remember all of the many crimes that are committed against our community with nothing no media attention, no Hnyes, no Sharpten, just a lousy group of Cops looking to convince you out of making a Report on the incident getting them out of some extra paper work and a higher crime rating.
    So what happens when you have an incident like the one that took place on Carroll and Albany, and you see the reaction of all the above mentioned people, we the community begin to wonder, we begin to question, What were the exchange of words that the cops son himself said that their was before the alleged beating, what is the other side of the story? We also question, who is the Brooklyn DA, what is his job, why is he so quite during other cases of crises in crown heights.
    Last night Jewish Blood was spilled, our community is angry, we feel cheated and violated by our own community leaders, by the media, and by the people that in the government that’s jobs are to make a strong stance against crime. Politicians come… politicians go… what remains is your history, history that you write yourself. Your job is to build up connections with higher power but is also to stand up to what is right and what is wrong. Those who are truthful to themselves and to what they stand for will make their own Woo and let the world know that some things are just not tolerated. And last to the media your job is not to write the story, but to tell it all as it happens, your job is to question both sides and show both sides, and then let the viewers decide.

    I been following the incidents and politics in crown Heights lately.. I do have relatives there. It’s very troubling to me that it seems crown heights is getting a disproportionate / unfair share of tension and problems. I work in east New York and I am very much exposed to the local people in that neighborhood (although it’s not Crown Heights the general neighborhood class of people I can compare it to CH …) there is very little element of anti Semitism to us from blacks. The underling tension MUST BE DEFUSED by simple acts of courtesy towards them. Just simple behavioral edict, nothing more. A Hello , Good morning, Hi, how do you do?.. Excuse me , …I’m sorry … All this can go a long way in fixing a good part of these problems.

    Grand jury time! Oops, to get a grand jury you have to be the son of an affirmative action hire cop and a Sharptonian.

  • u.p.

    I emailed DA Hynes today, asking where was his loud response to this Jewish boy being beaten. My email response from DA Hynes:
    “I am not a racist but you obviously are a jerk.”

  • Stand Up

    WHAT CAN WE DO?
    Please take part in the march from the crime scene (Albany bet. Empire and Lefferts) to the 71st precinct TODAY @ 4:30pm. Crown Heights can show a united front to the police department and the media: We ALL suffer from these atrocities. We will NOT let a single attack slip by unnoticed. We will ALWAYS stand up for our brothers and sisters in the community– no matter our personal disputes.* WE will worry about our fights, YOU will worry about the vicious attacks against the families you are paid to protect.

    Webby: A text message and email has circulated pretty quickly about this march (I got it three times in the last hour). Please help spread the word.

    * I don’t know who is behind this march and I don’t care to find out. All I know is that no community has ever moved forward on a platform of indifference. Let’s stand together (yes, even in the rain) because no one else will stand for us.

  • its about time

    thats amazing that its being recognized by the media-what about the police

  • m&m

    what doesint make sence is that i was walking with my friend montgomery an d albany while the abmulences were drivingt o the scene and i was in middle of sayin ghow safe i feel b/c the streets were filled with ppl!i mean,there had to be ppl passing by him while he was getting attacked!we jsut have to think“what would i do if i was jsut one block down and saw this guy being beaten up?” i know i might jsut be a high school girl and that shvartz can go right after to me,but i would atleast call the police or s/t if i saw what was happening!

  • trying to improve our sitch

    recently i decided that the only way we can help this situation alittle is by trying to show them our menchlichkeit.IM NOT SAYING LETS BECOME BUDDIES but if you see a women with a stroller going up steps HELP HER oout!i pass by the public school kids every day,i hear them say sometimes “ok lets see if this white girl will say hello” and guess what?i do b/c then they walk away and say oh so maby they are alittle human!im not at all justifying the terrible things they are doing but it doesint mean we can act racist to their whole race!

  • bocher from O.T.73-----76

    WE MUST LEARN FROM THE BLACKS .WE MUST HAVE MASS DEMENSTRATIONS .IN FRONT OF THE 71 PCT. WE MUST BLOCK TRAFFIC , WE MUST HAVE VIGALATY OUT ON THE STREETS AT NIGHT FIGHTING BACK .FOLLOW THE SHARPTON WAY

  • sponteneous?

    What is planned for the march?
    Who will have the bull horn?
    What will happen when we get to the police station?
    What is the end signal?
    Will there be placards?
    Will Letitia James be there?

  • Stand Up

    to trying to improve and others: YES YES YES. It is VERY important to keep acting mentchlich and cordial and helpful to all of G-d’s children. It is ALSO important to act with respect and diplomacy towards the police department. It is ALSO important to protest their actions–or lack of action–firmly and consistently. Please attend the march today and tell your friends.

    could u believe?

  • Benny

    There is a war going on and the best defense is a good offence. Also, appeasement is more likely to make your adversary bolder (ex. Middle East) 1). We need to start organizing martial arts classes so that everybody can defend themselves properly. 2) It would be great if we could have a system that uses GPS where one could press a panic button and their co-ordinates could be transmitted to the security patrols. In the meantime everyone should carry mace or pepper spray and not walk alone.

  • Connie

    Please remember that the vicious attack was carried out by two individuals, not an entire race and/or class of people. I hope the victim gets well soon and the perpetrators found and appropriately punished.

  • Disgusted!.

    Does the media know about this march?

    Also I don’t understand how Hynes can actt like this when he has yidden from this community on his staff. Can’t they have any influence on him. Don’t see how they can work for him under these circumstances!

  • PentaxK20D

    DA can’t do anything now anyway,
    there has to be an arrest first.
    It won’t really matter what he does
    if they don’t get caught.

    By the way, Crown heights
    community has to seriously have
    a protest, don’t open your stores,
    sit on the street and get arrested
    for civil disobiedience.

    Don’t make this a Black and Jews
    thing make it a Community VS CRIME
    thing.

  • To Binyamin L./WebmasterCHI

    What are you not?

    First, you’re the one reporting the news to us Crown Heightsers.
    Second, I find out that you are the one actually protecting us Crown Heightsers, the first at every seen and not affraid to stand up agaisnt anyone.
    Third, after all the talking in this communtiy of going to the media and actually bringing the publics attention to all this – you’re the one doing it!

    What do you not do for the safety of our community?

    Although I consider myself a strong Mishichist, and it hurts me every time something negetive is mentioned about them, I cannot help but feel bad for all the **** my fellow mishichisten are doing to you.

    I trully admire and respect every action you do for if there is one person in this community who does for our sefety it is you!!

    Thank you!!
    Thank you!!
    Thank you!!

  • To Lavdavka

    Lavdafka, yes I saw the same comment you wrote on yeshiva world. Well excuse me, but how do you know that we dont act mentchlich? How do you know we dont say hello and g’morning. I have black neighbors that are very friendly and we are too. These are troubled kids. Thats like telling the jews to befriend the arabs so they will leave them alone. Never gonna happen

  • Concerned citizen

    To the black lady who reads this site and complains about the content

    Where are you when stones are thrown daily at a Jewish school bus by balck children?

    Where are you when a Jewish peson has his teeth knocked out by a black mugger?

    Where are yu today that a Jewish boy was knocked unconcious by two blacks?

    Once in twenty years a black boy is ALLEGEDLY hit over the head by Jewish people (there has been no proof of this) and you complain. Is only black blood important? Why is Jewish blood so cheap?

    Where is Mr. Hynes with a grand jury to invetigate this?

  • Henya bas Bobba

    To thous who say it is our fault that we are not nice to blacks I say this is blaming the victim . Are they nice to us ? Will being nice to a mugger will make him stop ? I try to say Hello , Please and Thank you to all people I meet regardless of who they are. My mother brought me up this way. But I still get a lot of negative racial comments from black residents , just because I happened to be Jewish.
    I believe that if we finally make sholom amongst out selves / as in Shmira and Shomrim finally cooperating / we will become a less desirable target. Police is not going to do anything it is up to us to pressure them all the time. Let them be more afraid of what we are going to do , then of the anger of the other side.
    P.S. Please pardon my grammar , like for many this is not my first / or even second / language.

  • !!!

    The protest was B“H an amazing success!
    Today, after the protest, I passed by Eastern Parkway and heard two blacks saying:
    ”Look at those Jews! They just protestin without no permit and they aint gettin arrested!”
    They’re pissed about the protest, I think it only made them madder.

  • wtvr

    this cant go one we have to do something now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    DOSE ANY ONE AGREE WITH ME?????????????????
    time for action

  • Yeah,OK

    To Concerned Citizen…

    Where are you every time
    a black kid gets mugged?

    Yeah I thought so…

    People stick with their
    groups, END OF STORY!!!

  • astonished and horrified

    i would just like to point out something that i have noticed.
    i found it extremely puzzling, but on the corner of Albany and empire there are posters hanging stating that if you any info about any crime you should call to the PD….all very nice but might you take a single step in any direction (away from that corner, even on the same block) u will not see any signs with anything of the like.

    that is right just the four corners of that block has a few signs, and that is it!!

    it is obvious that those signs were hung just so that it shall in the news camera’s view.
    I personally think this should be a front page story
