CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — Just moments ago a press conference, which appeared to have been called by Al Sharpton’s National Action Network, in which there were calls of “No Justice, No Peace” and “We will tear down the white wall of silence” and even “we will march through these streets, even seven times until we break down that wall” these statements coming from Mr. Taharka Robinson, who is acting as spokesperson for the family and is the representative of Sharpton’s National Action Network.
This comes after the incident where Shmira beat up an black man on the corner of Albany and Carroll Street. A number of news stations attended the conference including CBS2, NBC4, FOX5 and NEWS12, which took place on Albany Avenue between President and Carroll where the beating took place.
Calls for Marches in Crown Heights
CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — Just moments ago a press conference, which appeared to have been called by Al Sharpton’s National Action Network, in which there were calls of “No Justice, No Peace” and “We will tear down the white wall of silence” and even “we will march through these streets, even seven times until we break down that wall” these statements coming from Mr. Taharka Robinson, who is acting as spokesperson for the family and is the representative of Sharpton’s National Action Network.
This comes after the incident where Shmira beat up an black man on the corner of Albany and Carroll Street. A number of news stations attended the conference including CBS2, NBC4, FOX5 and NEWS12, which took place on Albany Avenue between President and Carroll where the beating took place.
The mother of Andrew Charles told the gathered reporters that he son is “emotionally scared, depressed and scared to walk out of the house” and “I hope there will be justice for my son”, Andrew himself spoke and expressed that he hopes to see his attackers pay for what they had done.
One other notable speaker was Marq Claxton, a retired NYPD detective who was extremely inciting saying things such as “many years ago I was a victim of such assaults” along with “we will not tolerate this, this is unacceptable” yet Mr. Claxton neglected to mention who specifically were his assailants.
There were vague references to the racially motivated beating of Shmuel Balkeny, and that he was attributed preferential treatment because he was jewish, yet to this date police don’t have any suspects in custody.
Jewish resident who happened to be passing, stopped and watched curiously as this was being said, most were of the opinion that this was an attempt to bring riots back to the streets of Crown Heights one called it “marches? Yeh right, that’s what they called in 1991 and that’s what they think they will get away with calling it in 2008”.
Following the conclusion of the press conference clergymen and woman mingled and spoke with some of the Jewish residents that had gathered, and spoke about the ‘tensions’ one clergywoman mentioned CrownHeights.info and the comments that are sometimes published, she said that comments that said “it’s about time” and the likes are really bad and only incite more. Others were heard muttering, that the reason it’s like that is that “we are more so the victim of unsolved black crime on Jews, it’s no wonder”.

As I’ve stated before. There were at least 2 witnesses who stated that the Black victim started the whole problem. This was posted on this web site.
The witnesses said that he was throwing rocks at some Jews without any provocation by them. He is also a known troublemaker, said the witnesses.
I’m not stating that this is true. But for the purposes of truth and justice Andrew Charles should be asked to take a lie-detector test.
The two witnesses should come forward and then the procedure can begin.
If Mr. Andrew Charles is an honest and upright citizen he would be glad to do it, since he has nothing to hide. I would do it myself for the sake of truth and peace.
I’m not equating this case with the horrible riots of ’91. But lest we forget the riots were sparked by a lie.
The ambulance left the scene of the accident because the police warned them of danger, not because they didn’t care about Gavin Cato and his cousin (?).
Mayor Bloomberg made it clear that he would not tolerate unlawful behavior. At least now we, hopefully, have a real mayor, not a sham, anti-religious, vain, decadent mayor.
By the way, I voted for David Dinkins and my best friend in The High School of Art and Design was a Black man, Albinet Stewart.

This is such BS. where was all the news over yom tov when our young boys where playing innocently and then got beaten for no reason other then the fact that they where jewish… enough of this we need to take arms (in wtvr means each individual deems fit) and stand up for ourselves this is our neighborhood and no one can make us scared to live in it unless we let them…
Abba
this sad story may bring the end of an era: no more Shmira for starters, and the vacant shell known as the CHJCC may be forced to close because of the local comedic machloches,
The only peacemakers I have seen are Senator Adams and Assemblyman Camara, both mentsches not tied to the corrupt system).
Unless Sperlin, Lang and Rubashkin can convince the Sharpton-Barron clique that there is real and effective leadership, we may be in for a long summer,
Not from ny
GOOOOSH….
WHAT A CHILUL LUBAVITCH!!!!!!!!
whatever
Actually the victim was not so innocent. He was throwing rocks at the people who sprayed him with mace.
A CALL TO JUSTICE
This is absolutely unbelievable – if one were give this a moments thought – after tens and tens WITHOUT EXAGGERATION of blacks attacking jews AS POSTED ON THIS WEBSITE (check it out for yourself -don’t rely on me!)!! And when one black is attacked [I’m not trying to say the fact he was attacked is at all justified, I dont know the real story although I did hear that he was throwing stones, but if he was “innocently walking down the street, the his attackers certainly should receive the necessary consequences!] (can anyone even recall the last time another black was attacked by a jew?!) it’s all over the media and an excuse for a freaking riot!
This really and I mean REALLY totally unbelievable – just speak about justice ! JUSTICE is what we really need in this community and in this world!
PEOPLE: ”A CALL TO JUSTICE”!!!
PEACE NOW!
Where were these black leaders and activists calling for marches, when Jews were being atacked and having their teeth broken for no reason other than their religion???
I don’t condone violence of any sort. And I am still wondering why anyone would just attack another human being walking down the street of any color, race or religion!!

maybe this would be a good time to organize a mass tefilah at the ohel to bet rachamim rabim

What the heck is happening over here? Of course nobody should lift a hand against anybody, but why suddenly when its Jew on black does it get a press conference and a grand jury? It makes me want to scream!
ch resident
Well well well… If Sharpton is here I am sure we are looking at increased tensions. The summer hasnt even begun and we are starting all over again. I am thrillled that BH my family leaves CH for the summer. It is just plain unsafe.
enough is enough
someone has to get up and say how many times do jewish kids get beaten up???
and jewish woman got their diamonds stolen from them? and yungerman get mugged on the streets of crown h eights?????
if a black boy was beaten
i truly believe he did something for it
its about time we get up and defend our selves
enough getting beaten being scared etc…
lets get up just like them call channel 4 news and make a tummel
if you want you can call all the girls that got their rings stolen , my friend had a gun to her stomach ….
i mean lets do something
chres
why are you saying this happened after an alleged rock throwing incident.
yes its me
As long as the monks stand there with folded arms nothing will come of “talks”
ESPECIALY if its biased, ever wonder why only know when a black is beaten up all this occurs?
me.
Well
That was
Fun to read

This also explains why Charles Hynes announced the grand jury – he must have had a heads up that this peaceful coalition was coming to CH and he wanted to have taken some action before it starts. What a woosy.

Webby,
Does Shomrim feel that there will be retaliatory incidents?

over the last three years tens if jews were beaton up in ch nobody cared. one black guy gets a little hurt and they are ready to start riots. dont let this become another ’91 this time lets defend ourselves.

Brother, what else is cookin’? Whatever this is, when I read about a black man back in October 07, on his bicycle, literally swinging a metal pipe with all his might at some chosid’s neck, I don’t recall any bloody outrage from the black community at large. C’mon. There’s no comparison to the numbers of violent crimes against us, compared with the pussyfooting around the black community’s youth — let’s hope the priests and laymen of this community diplomatically handle this with fairness and honesty.

“Webby,
Does Shomrim feel that there will be retaliatory incidents?”
what a moronic question they attack us no matter what we do
lets not make excuses for their next attack

i think instead of speaking so much someone should actually get up and do something every day until about a month ago the same thing was hapennig to us and nothing hapend the cops came a hour late to the scene or they did not come at all and all the sudean they want peace after taking every thing we have. someone get up and do something
Mad
i am very mad. how come they are making such a big deal? jews get beat up much more often…
Dissapointed CrownHeightser
This is sad…
Next time a Jew is beaten up in Crown Heights we must make a whole commotion and send it in to the news, etc… (and i bet (unfortunately) it won’t be too long until an incident does come up).
I don’t believe this!.. Weren’t some Jews just beaten up on yom tov in the park?!! Oh… I forgot “Jews” getting beaten up is no problem for bloomberg, but if a shvartzeh gets beaten up.. it’s a big thing!
Mr. Bloomberg, it’s time to stick up for your own religion for once.

WHERE IS OUR CALL TO JUSTICE OVER THIS??
kalman
The issue is leadership.
To their credit the African American Community has leadership to deal with such issues when they occur and ensure action is taken.
As a community we fail miserably in this regard – we only have ourselves to blame
What are you waiting for
Is everyone just going to sit on their tuches and let this lie go this far?
You all know why this is happening.
The police, City Hall, the media do nothing when countless times it’s the other way around, because they know that we will do nothing.
They all jump on this story because in a couple of days, African Americans are mobilized, and they will do someting if not appeased. Given the history of CH, and the impending verdict in the Sean Bell case, brace yourselves for the worst.
This will never change untill every Jew in CH and beyond stands up and says “no more, not true” and points the finger in the right direction; the police and City Hall
Everybody better jump on this right now or something bad will happen
GUCCI
Ther’s is not going to be no Riot, and I dont belive the kid was that inocent.
Regardles of the above; sad to say, but I think its about time we start defending our selfs. If people know that when you mess with a Jew you WILL get cought and beaten, I belive people will think twicw before going on their next Muging spree.
Untill now we sat quietly as our Men, Women and Children were getting Beaten day in and day out, NO MORE…This summer is diffrant then evry other summer.. we should tell Al Sharpton and his whole groupe of retards to go home, and YES! this is what happens when you pick a fight with randome people on the street; YOU WILL GET COUGHT AND PAY FOR IT! AN EYE FOR ANY BABY!!
wtvr
now its our turn to call the news people and start screaming. have all our little boys that were mugged and beaton come and talk. well march through the streets saying that enough is enough. we have to show them that we wont let it go on anymore just ignored. in Bora Park and williamsburg they put garbage cans on fire and start screaming when a little thing happens. we have to learn from them. My brother was beaton just this yom tov and it wasnt his first mugging. we as a community have to do something.
mr. america
lets try to understand
Step 1-there are tons of jewish teens,kids,women,and men are being hurt daily and the plioce do the BARE MINUMUM if they do even that k now lets move on to step 2
ONE black man is hurt who is wont take a lie detactors test(whitch means he has something to hid)and the all these people are going crazy
I ask what the hell is going on i cant belive ehat i am reading it makes me sick to my stomach
Action louder then words
Thay are upset about a few stupit commends???
Actions speak louder then words.
So basicly b/c of a few comments they are very concerned and must make a big deal.
But the people that are out there DAILY mugging and assulting etc… use daily, they have rights. They get a pass.
A jew NOT in CH
The jewish community (whoever that may be, maybe sugar) should anounce that ABSOLUTELY NO VIOLENCE will be tolerated on behalf of the black community.
They want justice and peace ? BS! Why are jews being racialy attacked DAY IN DAY OUT.
1 questionable incident and they start a whore uproar ?!?!
Why dont they rein in their youth ?
Should any violence occur out of this, we take sharpton and crew to court.. racism, incitment to violence, disruption of the peace and RICO as well!
A jew NOT in CH
Get rid of sperlin and rubashkin.. Call in Dr Laz and others…
This aint ’91.. the jewish community now WILL react to riots… I can promise you 100% that jewish youth WILL FIGHT BACK.
Crown Heights will see martial law.
Jewish blood is not cheap!
Brooklyn district attorney Mr. Charles Hynes, Jewish blood is not cheap!
Reports out on Wednesday said that Brooklyn district attorney Charles Hynes will have a grand jury investigate the April 14th attack on a 20-year-old black male in Crown Heights. The attack was allegedly carried out by two Yidden on the corner of Carroll and Albany.
According to a report in the NY Daily News here’s what Hynes had to say about the victim of the attack: “He’s an excellent young man, and I met with him personally to assure him that I would do everything in my power to bring to justice those who humiliated him.”
It is important to point out that thus far only one side of the story is being reported in all the news media reports.
Who said that the facts are exactly as the victim alleges they were? Maybe the “victim” attacked the supposed “attackers” and the supposed “attackers” were in fact acting in self defense! So long as the alleged attackers have not been apprehended and have not had their side of the story heard the news reports are doing nothing more but inciting the public.
A grand jury investigation by the DA will only go to show that Crown Heights community is being treated to a double standard.
Mr. Hynes, when was the last time that you personally met with Jewish victims of violence in the Crown Heights community?
Mr. Hynes, where were you and the grand jury when Moshe Kozlovsky was mercilessly beaten in Crown Heights on July 8th 2007?
Mr. Hynes, where were you and the grand jury when Yechiel Rappaport was beaten and had 5 teeth knocked out near the corner of Carroll and Albany in Crown Heights on August 22nd 2007?
Mr. Hynes, where were you and the grand jury when the Davis family had a brick thrown through their skylight in their Crown Heights home on September 27th 2007?
Mr. Hynes, where were you and the grand jury when sixteen-year-old Shmuel Balkany was attacked by five black males while walking home in Crown Heights on Friday months a mere few months ago?
The above are just a few examples of some of the more serious crimes to have taken place in Crown Heights. Should you need more I’d be glad to supply them to you. But I have a question, have you met with any of the above Jewish victims Mr. Hynes?
Mr. Hynes, Jewish blood is not cheap, shame on you for playing politics with our community!
Before you start any grand jury investigation into the April 14th attack you would do good to first meet with all the Jewish victims of attacks in Crown Heights.
Very Mad Resident!
I think people should make a point of posting comments “what is REALLY going on” on NY daily post that is viewed by millions of people nationwide: NY DAILY NEWS
A victim of a assault by a African Ameri
Where were you Mr Charles Hynes when I got robbed and brutally assaulted by two black males, just because I am Jewish, look at all the muggings and assaults that the African Americans did to the Crown Heights Jewish people., every single day Jews are being mugged and assaulted by the African American community, do you care about us also?

Big organization this National Action Network!
One of their brothers is hurting, they’re in pain, and only 20 people show up.
Why? The rest of the Blacks know the truth: Jews don’t arbitrarily beat up Black people; there must have been a reason.
There are plenty of sensible Blacks from Jamaica, Haiti etc. living here. They don’t. involve themselves in such nonsense and evil. I know many of them.
Ari
So the question now is are we gonna sit here like innocent victims , like lambs await the slaughter. Or is the leadership gonna do something to protect us. Get our ears on the street before someone gets really hurt. Ok blaming is one thing which everyone here seems to be really good at,but we need protection. One thing for sure is the enemy has no brains just unjustified anger. So there retaliation is gonna be in the open . We need to go behind the scenes and find out whats going down. No more hiding in our homes waiting for the storm to calm, we must start now!!!!!! Or it could be anyone at anytime. I personally feel a difference about the way the goyim are acting lets focus Yidden.

k yall r writing the same thing if u havent noticed so go vent your frustration somewhere else.
Oihav Shalom
It seems quiet simple to me. I don’t live in the Ch however I frequent there often enough to be aware of some of the politics. IF there is no communtiy leader of course noone will pay attention. I mean take a look from the outside you have 2 civilian patrols (whtvr the politics are ther i don’tknow
) You have Chanina and Rubashkin fightin with each other, and dare I say it the Mishichist and the Non Meshichist. Now you tell me if we can’t get along with one another and We as a chasidus/community have no leadership why should anyone want to pay attention to us. It’s about time to put the politics aside, everyone grow up!!! Call a meeting maybe bring in a few Rabbonim that everyone holds of and iron this out once and for all. Blaming the police and media will not get you anywhere, but if you have an articulate individual who consultes with daas torah and speaks for the klal maybe just maybe you would see some better results. I am not saying what happened here is right or wrong just giving my 2 cents. and I must agree with Kalman
SOS, DD
Let them march. It’s a great idea. Marching has gotten a lot done in this country. We should march every time something happens to one of ours, too. But let it stop at marching. The second marching ends and riots begin, get out your bats, boys and girls! This time we ain’t going down quietly!
kalman is right
kalman is right!!!!! gowing up in crown heights sad to say he is right!!!

are al you blind
this is exactly what the police wanted because before they had to answer to us why we were the victim of crimes. and they did nothing about it . now they feel great. i am sure insp. vega is laughing all the way to kellys office saying see how these peopel are
we never get any press
i think you should all email the writer of today article in the daily news and ask him why he doesnt ask all teh above questions i will email him
here is his email
and if anyone has charles hynes email it should be posted on all chabd sites to ask him why he never met with any of “our” victims

Bottom line is that all of these comments are one big waste of time. We are great at giving our opinion and venting our spleen… Talk is cheap.
If anyone out there is really serious about it, don’t wait to be invited by anyone (for seemingly you don’t trust anyone…)
You want something to get done… Do it.
The only reason why they are doing what they are is because they are doing something about it, while we are acting like Israelis in Israel. If there are a group of ppl who file a suit vs the city in a serious manner etc. and SEE IT THRU, then ppl will take things seriously… Until then All these comments are worthless.

Practice what you Preach
we have to practice what we preach, if we really do believe that violence is not a solution than the road go’s both ways we want Justice when a guy touches us so why shouldn’t they want Justice, if you think you have higher standers than your fellow black neighbor than act like it! so what are we gonna say oh its a eye for an eye? well guess what we don’t have any eyes left we used them up.
bottom line there is no room for all those who act with violence in our community let them be Jewish black Russian Italian Mexican Dominican Nigerian Arab or what ever.
we don’t live in a war zone NYPD does it job well let them handle crime
Morrie
This incident brings to light the basic truths that Sperlin and Rubashkin do not matter, that Shmira is a wild Stern gang that must be cleaned out, and that Crown Heights has no political clout.
Shmira should be put on suspension until the perpetrator comes forward. No peace without justice. The non-Jews will not give up. The press feeds off this frenzy. Jews do not report all the crimes because they are afraid of wasting their precious time.
Nobody votes in the right numbers and Bloomberg does not listen. Sure, he will do a photo op with Chanina. He will do that with anybody.
Moshe never had any power with the government. Chanina knows how to play the politicians and he realizes that this is the biggest threat to his perceived position as the leader of Crown Heights.
We are indeed in tricky times.

fellow CHers keep it up, vent your frustrations and maybe we will get together and stand up for ourselves.
Lets call a press conference
I would like to call a press conference. By this press conference let all the Jew who were beaten up by blacks come and have their say. My son was beaten unconcious a few years ago by a black. I want a press conference and I am going to march!! Why do we stand for this????
St6op the internal fighting.....
It’s truly interesting how we see the black community stand together, or at least attempt to.
We know for a fact that there is much infighting within the black community, but yet when something happens they can at least look like they are standing as one.
On the other hand, our Beis Din continues to fight, and the politicians here, Rubashkin, etc, continue to force our Beis Din to hate each other. Then our Community Council and other organizations fight also with each other.
Maybe, just maybe, before we start “fighting back” we should try to have actual unity, or at least attempted unity, among ourselves

Yeshiva World Comment
From Joseph on Yeshiva World:
“Anyone who believes Yidden attacked an innocent black acting peacefully needs their head examined. There is no doubt that this character is no ‘’innocent bystander.’’ And he suststained no lasting physical damage to boot.
That being said, EVEN if he was entirely an innocent victim (which he is not), since when does a police SWAT team storm into a house looking for someone who hit someone in the street (as happened last week at a ‘’suspects’’ home)? And since when does the D.A.’s office empanel a Grand Jury to find someone who hit someone in the street?
When Jews suffer far worse assaults the authorities do far less. In fact it is uneard of for this type of mobilization in this sort of routine case. Clearly the fact that it is a cops son plus the additional bonus that the supposed perpertrator is a Jew, who the authorities know do not riot, and would love nothing more than to throw a few in prison for good measure to demonstrate some perverted sense of ‘’even-handedness’’ plays a large and overwhelming role in the overreaction to this.”

This the e-mail listed on Charles Hynes’ site to send letters to his OFFICE (doesn’t promise he’ll see it):
SCHMETJ@brooklynda.org
BTW does anybody know where I could watch the press conference?
mother in crown heights
We have cell phone cameras and videos- lets post this garbage when we see it. If someone had gotten the license plate number of the idiot who hit my husband and landed him in the hospital for 3 weeks- we could get that guy/gal off the streets. I agree with the posters on this site who say that as crown heights residents white/ black/purple etc we should give media coverage to ALL unlawful incidents regardless of color of the assailant. The black residents of crown heights that I have talked to are fed up with the crime also. Don’t forget it’s not only black on white -it is also black on black. That never gets mentioned. Ask the media why no one makes a fuss when a black person kills another in crown heights!

so why are we just writing comment let do something we cant let this happen nu we have to go to cort

To Morrie, Jews don’t report all crimes because the police at the 71 precinct makes that when jews come it takes 3 hours, they also some how loose the reports from Jews.
