  • I don't get it

    Why was that kid turned into a human microphone stand? It seems demeaning.

    • I see you've never been to camp

      His options were no canteen for a week, run the baseball field without shoes, or hold the microphone for Rabbi Shemtov. He chose to hold the microphone.

    With the Help of Hashem, may this be the very last time we have to sit on the floor, be in Aveilus & say Eicha, & BE”H by next year Tisha B’Av, we will already be in Yerushalayim with Moshiach Tzidkainu celebrating the Great Simcha of Beeias Goel Tzedek !!

    I don’t understand why they couldn’t use a microphone that you could place on a table or something with the holding piece for it, this way that young boy, wouldn’t have to hold it for Rav Shemtov
