    please take off the picture of my wife. cant we go do kaporos without the papratzi?

  • J.B.

    I’m sure that the carnival atmosphere surrounding the kapores ritual is a perfect reflection of how it was meant to be.

  • Yid with a heart

    Disgusting. I leave town every pre-YK just because I don’t want my children seeing this.

  • Morality Patrol

    It’s inappropriate for this gallery to feature as many chicks as chickens.

  • girl :) :)

    LAST PICTURE IS THE BEST!! AND I SPOT DUBA RASKINNN!!! PIN KSWETSHIRTT!! towards the end :) :):)

  • Sad to see

    It’s juvenile and barbaric – it really doesn’t belong in the city, in modern society, at all. Very sad to see.

    How about equal time for pictures of people just giving tzeduka?

  • ice cream and chickens oh my!!!

    ???
    smell of ice cream and chicken together. Hmmm. makes me realy in the mood of an ice cream.

  • Thank Youfor the pictures!

    How about erev yom kippur we take off the anti- Semetic comments? The pictures are beautiful! The shining faces of the children happy to do a mitzva and enjoying the chickens who are also doing a mitzva double! First for kapparos and second for being used as food for tzedaka!

    The minhag won’t change this is what’s done this is what tשzaddikim did

    I agree with thank you for the pictures

    We don’t need bad energy or political onslaught on our religious observances coming through this site

    Go talk with islamists about practices that are abhorrent

    A good sweet year to all of you

    Ch.info thanks again

    Cruelty !What about giving tzeduka? Why to hurt the poor little thing! I’m against all this , this is not a mizvah ! It’s animal abuse.
