Watch video how the murderer burned down a wig store and was let free!
Charedim are now brushing off this violent act saying he was deranged! Was the one who burned down stores that sell mobile phones deranged too? How about the guys that stop traffic are they "deranged" or are they just a "a bunch of extremists"
If Charedim are not going to stop this violence in its tracks, it will escalate quickly!
Below is a comment on a Chardeie blog from a frustrated Charedie and I translated into English!
"Why is anyone surprised?
They are all shocked. Everyone asks how it happens.
How does a man gets up, take a knife, and kill an someone immersed in studying, next to his 13-year-old child.
But the painful truth is we must not be surprised.
Because a society that is used to being silent when extremists are burning mobile stores, you should not be surprised when one day someone takes the same logic one step forward.
A society that gets used to keeping quiet when women are persecuted because of the length of a skirt, don't be surprised when violence in the name of modesty turns into violence in the names of holiness.
A society that practices silence when wig shops are attacked, when business owners are threatened, when glass is broken, when walls are corrupted, when children see vandalism and understand that it's called "Holy War", should not be surprised when the next generation gets the message.
The message is simple and dangerous:
if something seems not holy enough to you, you are allowed to harm it. And if damage is allowed, why stop at the property? And if it's allowed to harm in the name of religion, who decides where the border is?
And this is where the problem begins.
Violence does not begin with murder. It begins with silence. It starts with a wink. It starts with "Well, they're extremists". It starts off with "don't make it a big deal". It starts with the rabbi who don't yell loud enough, businessmen who are afraid of getting involved, the public that prefers to look away, and in good people who tell themselves that it's nothing to do with them.
This does have to do with you.
Because whoever burns a store today, may raise his hand tomorrow. Whoever chases a woman in the street today, may hurt a person tomorrow. Whoever teaches that violence is a legitimate tool in religious struggle, cannot later be shocked when this tool is activated to the end "

I've always been pleasantly surprised that there isn't gun warfare in the Chareidi community. After all, when it comes to violence they are otherwise quite good at imitating the Arabs.
I disagree. None of the other items come close to cold blooded murder.

The entire premise of this post is that it's getting there fast. Last year, they burned down a mobile store in Yerushlayim, and a family of six living upstairs barely escaped!
To the victim, getting stabbed to death or being burned to death is the same thing
When reading the vitriol, anger, and extremism on this blog, I am more worried about something else.
It’s reckless behavior: No concern with consequences of one’s actions , which is the opposite of Torah behavior. My question is why.
