A man is in critical condition today after he was beaten by a modesty squad in the Jerusalem neighborhood of Meah Shearim. Witnesses say the man was looking across the street at a crowd of women, when the attackers jumped the man and told him that he wasn’t being tznius. They then beat him up with rolling pins and other kitchen appliances.
Bystanders merely stood by and watched as the sinner was publicly shamed for his misdeeds. One witness told us that the modesty squad was just doing its job in maintaining certain decorum in the neighborhood and that any man caught ogling a woman was liable to be beaten. Another man told us he was very happy that there such a squad to squash out any other untznius activities like looking at, touching chas v’shalom and talking to women of any age.
FS – News has also learned that the squad supposedly turned its attention to the police that were helping the man with his injuries and gave them a beating too, for supporting such a “minuvel” as one of the squad called him. Apparently the squad is also known to beat up men for taking seats in the back of mehadrin buses where the women usually sit.
Although many of our American readers have expressed shock and horror at the incident, they continue to support Charedi institutions like the Modesty Squad of Meah Shearim. It is rumored that the Modesty Squad has even begun compiling sponsors for it’s first annual Chinese Auction set to rival Oorah and Chai Lifelines auction by spending money collected by men claiming to widows with 6 children from Israel that tend to knock on doors in suburban American neighborhoods late at night. From our understanding, Chinese Auctions are so tempting that people tend to overlook what the cause is, and only care about ridding thmselves of their maaser money and winning a sexy new sheitle or a brand new freezer for the garage.

I heard that he was beaten up for ogling the women through and over the mechiza in shul
As long as the Israeli government coddles and protects them their madness and evil will continue. Girls beaten up. Women spat on or having acid thrown on them. Arson. Rioting. And let’s not forget the stonings. By any sane standard a gang of people throwing rocks is an assault with deadly force.
The Tallitban are terrorists plain and simple. They deserve no better treatment than other terrorists who assault women, destroy property and attack the police with weapons. If Israel jails and shoots Muslim terrorists or tears down their houses it should apply the same standard to Jewish ones. If they are not stopped they will demand more and more until Israel is turned into Saudi Arabia, Iran or Afghanistan. And it’s not as if the criminals are even pulling their own weight. They live off the hard work of people they despise and let other Jews risk their lives to protect the parasites.
Fortunately, these scum are utter physical cowards. All it would take to send most running back to their
training campsyeshivot would be a few victims standing up to them.Poe’s law, just sayin.
The rule is that no woman leaves the house without a turban, thick stockings and a house coat,snake and flute are optional. It was the wench’s fault.
These thugs will get theirs. I may not know much about the ways of Hashem, but I’m not entirely sure He approves of this.
What about another tznius squad attacking the first tznius squad for using rolling pins. The first squad committed the sin of ‘beged isha’. Just like women can’t carry guns men may not carry rolling pins. Or maybe there was a heter for when you use it as a weapon?
this was obviously a joke
I know – but so many of these people took it seriously and besides – if you actually read the whole thing you will note that it was half a joke
I like how you put that little disclaimer at the bottom, as if the URL wasn’t enough.
Well the story is pretty whack that they beat up the cops trying to help her -
I knew it was a joke, because they only beat up women not men.
Anyone seen “Bruno”? He came PRETTY DAMN CLOSE to being lynched by Chareidim.
Yeah, he did. BUT, he really provoked them. On the other hand, in “Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden”(a documentary) the guy is trying to interview people (chareidim) in Meah Shearim and almost starts a riot. That was far worse.
Good call, I remember that
Hmm how would anyone think this was real? Obviously in real life they would leave the man alone and attack the women for seducing him with their immodest dress. They were probably wearing seamless stockings or had let their collarbones peek out of their dresses. It would be their fault for sure in the real world; that’s why this is funny.
Thank you Gila for understanding my point
Ok do the charadim over react some times YES but Meah Sahrim is their hood they could and do make there own law there also the buses situation is not that bad the beating go both ways a lot of times its the charadim that get beat up by Americans, non frum people I have been on those buses its mostly peaceful MR A. Nuran I am starting to see a patern where u are all ways wirting anti semetic stlye comments on a bunch of diffrent blogs get a life or at least change your tone a bit
Just a note…
I understood that Heshy’s story was satire. But the atrocities these people commit against women are an everyday thing.
Laugh all you want, I’ve seend the tznius squad at work at Simchas beis hashoeva in Crown Heights back in my days. No, they didn’t usually attack people, but with the Shemtov dude in charge, things always ended up with pushing and shoving.
The really scary thing is that they’ve gotten worse what with beating girls up to the point of hospitalisation, throwing acid on them, breaking into apartments to threaten and assault women, gang attacks and whatnot. As long as they can get away with it it will get worse.
Fortunately for them and unfortunately for decent people they are effective bullies. They don’t pick victims who are likely to fight back.
Fourteen year old girl wearing a red shirt and talking to a couple of boys – victim.
Same girl four years older on leave from the IDF – doesn’t get picked on.
I’ve got very little patience for gangs of men who assault women. The planet could continue to rotate perfectly well without them.
God this is such uncreative crap.
Pathetic putz.
I’m surprised that the women didn’t get attacked for causing the man to stare at them. Afterall, isn’t it our fault for causing men to stray and sin?Pretty women are responsible for adultery and promiscuity. For all we know, we could be accountable for being raped becaused we inavertantly asked for it. Apparently child molestors are condoned in those circles but if a man and a woman were to walk on the same side of the road then all hell would break loose. The last time I checked, physical voilence, assualt and battery are a transgression of Torah values but I guess you can search for loopholes if you want to. You could stop keeping kosher under the premises that kosher food is expensive and it sucks too. You can look for leniencies to stop observing shabbos ( and I am not just refering to life threatening situations ) and misquote a pasuk for that too. Those who legitimize domestic violence in the name of G-d or commits tax evasion are no better than the next person who strays from the path of Torah, let alone stares at women. ( I’m not trying to put 2 of them in the same catagory but you all know where I am getting at ).
How did they have kitchen appliances acessible outside?
woops!
Accessible
Well, Yad L’Achim literally do co-operate with Chinese state authorities in crushing cults, which is nice:

Satire or not, the result of this kind of behavior (which is documented and getting more and more brazen) will be that the majority of Israelis will actually want Jerusalem to be removed from Israel and given to whoever wants it. Who needs these malingerers and their undereducated, unemancipated, unpatriotic lifestyle?
