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.

Yeah, so? 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).

Fuck that. 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.

As Mr Spock would say.. "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

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.

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).
