From my last post...
" Hannukah starts December 7th. I still have every intention of decorating for it."
My fiancee informed me last night that we will not be putting Hannukah decorations outside this year. I can decorate to my heart's content on the inside, but she didn't wish for our house to "become a target."
Perfectly understandable, but how effin' sad is that?
That's very sad and makes me angry. Now I want to find some decorations and hang them outside and I'm not Jewish. I hate to live in fear
ReplyDeleteI may try to talk her into it. It makes me sad and angry.
DeleteIt's so wrong that you don't feel like you can decorate. People suck.
ReplyDeleteLuckily, most people are kind.
DeleteI agree. Straight buncha crap.
ReplyDeleteI don't want her to live in fear. It breaks my heart.
DeleteThank you, thank you, thank you for these two posts. Chico, CA (my hometown) is showing it's ugliest, most vicious Jew-hatred. I just can't, Al. It's brought me to tears and despair and I just can't even have discourse with people I believed were my friends. So many of them. This week, though, I donned my star of David earrings. Because I'm proudly Jewish. And damn them. Love you.
ReplyDeleteCONTINUE to be proud. I've tried to explain it. I cannot. All I can do is give her my support and, if need be, my protection.
DeleteThat is absolutely pathetic. What is wrong with people? Where did all these damn Nazis come from?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Alex. Thank you. People I thought were smart and caring whose hatred against Jews and Israel is off-the-rails. Hello, did they all forget their savior was Jewish? Oy vey. Love you and Al Penwasser/Ken.
DeleteSome of them did forget, because it's a Savior they don't really know. Satan's greatest weapon right now is hate, and it makes the difference pretty glaring. Be safe.
DeleteAgreed!
