Just wanted to know if Boro Park was still jewish or has the turd world invaded there too?
-
Boro Park is all Hassidic.
There are several forum members from Boro Park.

Like me.

Thanks, Yisrael. Looks like the only part of Brooklyn fit to live in these days. It must be a bugger to buy pork rinds on Saturday morning, though. ;)

An all orthodox / chassidic neighborhood in Brooklyn

There are gentiles who own shops in Boro Park. Between 55 and 58th st, there are some non-kosher places where you can feast on the flesh of swine, if you please.

It was a joke. No offense meant. I heard that in black areas the shops have One type of bread, no milk but 37 different types of pork rind. Probably an exaggeration. :laugh:

They have pakastani moslems around Boro park

Boro Park is mostly Hassidic.
There are Jewish Kosher food shops on every block, all over the place. To find non-Kosher food is hard.
Like the only non-Kosher diner sold. The one on 56 and New Utrecht. Now it's Kosher too.
There are a few Muslims on the outskirts of Boro Park.
Rent there is very high. A very small apartment is well over a thousand dollars a month.

You're lucky about the food. I can't find jewish food in Brisbane to save myself. I'd kill for a real authentic Ashkenazi, Fiddler on the Roof type feast. It took me 12 years to get my self-hating jewish lady friend to make me stuffed cabbage!
Do the chassidic jews accept help from shabbos goys on Saturday?
-
Do the chassidic jews accept help from shabbos goys on Saturday?
Yes, all the time.
Although they usually do violate the Shabbat when doing so. It's very tricky. You aren't allowed to as a gentile to be Mechallel Shabbat for you, but you can hint it. The problem is how to do it. Personally, my family never has asked a gentile to do anything for them on the Shabbat.
In Boro Park, on the holidays and often on Shabbat, NYPD Cops while patrolling stop into Synagogues and ask them if they need an AC turned on or if anything needs taking care of. This is usually arranged by the community affairs cops.
Another issue with asking a "Shabbos Goy" to work for you on Shabbat is because how do you know if he is a gentile. He may be a secular Jew or a Jew that converted to X-tianity.
-
Another problem there was a very famous skinhead leader in Poland when he was about 26 his parents told him they were Jews now he's studying in Israel to get shmicha,boy what a shock that must have been to him.Isay this because in some areas people don'nt even know they are Jewish

Nothing's ever simple in talmudic law. That must be why the learned men sit in the shull argueing and hair splitting. If I lived in A jewish neighborhood, I'd vollunteer. Especially in winter when the elderly need radiators turned on etc.
-
Usually people set things with timers. Lights, ACs, etc...

Another example of a screwed up world. A nazi discovers he's jewish and embraces it......the jew who knows he's jewish rejects it...OI!

It must be terribly expensive for large chassidic families requiring large apartments.
-
Yeah, it's pretty bad.
If Israel had a decent economy, we could convince them to move to yishuvim.

Real estate's not real cheap over there in Tel Aviv or Jerusalem. The 'territories are cheap' but try convinving people to live there after years of watching CNN.
-
Ok, first public hangings of CNN reporters, then we start the yishuvim campaign.

Can't we get rosie o'donnell too?

I think it's far to say that most of the Hassidim in Boro Park get foodstamps and section 8 to pay their rent.
The other diners are very small. Millers Diner was busy but now it was sold to a Jew who made it Kosher.

I'm not boned up on NY rental stuff. Is section 8 rent assistance ? How does this rent controll thing I've heard about on TV work?
-
Rent control and section 8 are 2 different things.
Section 8 is when the government pays your rent.
Rent control is where the government decides that you cannot raise the rent.

I hear urban legends about $2500 a month type apartments in manhattan going for $400 under rent control. Is this true or BS?
-
True, my Granpa had an apartment that would go for 3 or 4 k a month on the Upper West Side of Manhattan , for 500 a month.

How much would someone pay him to take that apartment over?
-
My Granpa had, emphasis on the word HAD.
He's dead now.
Anyways, I gotta go.
It's almost the Shabbawth.
Have a good weekend, mate.
Make sure to watch, "Skippy, the Bush Kangaroo" and eat some Vegimite.
