Posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Wed Sep 1 16:22:24 2010 I post this, with equal disapproval to all the calls for Sharia:http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2010/08/31/welcome-to-kiryas-joel-please-dress-accordingly/ Outrageous. I will note that these people are not blowing things up in the name of their faith, though. |

I see no problem with their complaints.Such complaints were also made when a bike path was to be put down Wythe Avenue in Brooklyn; it was eventually made a two-way bike path down Kent Avenue (to auto traffic, Kent is a one way northbound after Clymer Street). |

I would come with tank top and shorts and women in each arm just to protest. The absolute nerve. Dress modestly and no mixing of the sexes in public? This is the United States people. You are free to do whatever you want, but don't expect "your culture or extreme religious beliefs" infringe on other Americans. I would do just what that woman in the video did, and agree with every person interviewed. |

They are allowed to do what they want there, but have no right to inflict their extreme religious beliefs on "visitors" to the community. They are public streets. |

Okay---when Kent Avenue was turned into a one-way street in Williamsburg and Northside, the bike path southbound was moved to Wythe Avenue. The Hasidic Jews complained loudly, and it got moved back to Kent. |

"Interesting"....Actually I am more interested in finding out how this community is able to exist. Can anyone buy a home there or is it a private club of some sort? Do people of other nationalities / religions live there? Can they if they wished? Those would be issues of constitutional concern |

I'm sure you're the first person to raise these concerns. We may have a real constitutional problem on our hands that no one has thought of in the last 20 years or whatever. Call the ACLU right now... |

Considering all the laws that enforce "fair housing" I would think it would be very difficult to create a segregated community of any kind in the United States. So yes I am curious since the article is not clear. |

But are the Amish villages in PA segregated or can anyone buy property there? Seems to me that they are not as isolated as they used to be and while they may still be a majority in some towns they are not the only inhabitants |

By the way I did NOT say that it IS a cause for concern - i said it WOULD BE if fair housing laws were somehow being circumvented. Big difference |

What exactly would you gain by doing this? You're not fighting against something that actually affects you because there would be no consequences whatsoever. Maybe you should also go there with a megaphone and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. You have the right to do that too. |

They complained due to loss of parking. The bike lanes are idiotic. They take up useful space that could be used for parking, driving or even sidewalks and bus lanes just so liberal hipster douchebags can feel superior with their "carbon neutral" lifestyle (because they apparently don't breathe). |

I don't think there's any evidence that you couldn't buy a house there. As far as I can tell, it wouldn't be any different that trying to buy a house in the middle of Hasidic Williamsburg. |

I am not serious that I would go there. And I have no interest in teaching the "Gospel of Jesus Christ" either, as I can't stand the idiots that do that either.
