Comrades, there is a rather disturbing video reportedly showing New York police attempting to enter a Rockland County, New York, private residence while concerned about COVID compliance rules being violated.
In the video the police officer says he was responding to a complaint about cars parked in front of the house and noticed that a gathering of more than ten people was underway inside, which he calls “an issue.” The owner appears to be an Orthodox Jew and disagrees that “a few friends” coming together is an issue requiring police intervention. Weird.
Question: Is it illegal in New York to have more than ten people in your house?
Just another day in Killer Cuomo’s Gulag.
A minyan requires nine men, right? so if they want to pray, they have to make all their wives leave the house?
No, the women just need to be in another room.
Nothing prevents the women from being present during services.
Orthodox and some Conservative Jewish services require the sexes to be separate in the same room.
In Orthodox tradition there’s usually a balcony for women.
How else could they throw candies down on the boys?
That’s in the Sephardic (Spanish) tradition, anyway.
A ‘Minyan’ for Reform Jews requires 10 adults over the age of 13.
For Orthodox and most Conservative Jews, all of those adults must be males over the age of 13.
Certain prayers and rituals; e.g. Torah reading require a Minyan present.
Which means Cuomo is shutting down Jewish religious ceremonies in the privacy of one’s home.
When Cuomo was not satisfied just with shutting down Orthodox and Conservative Jewish Temples he is now going after services in private homes.
It reminds me of when Catholicism was illegal in England, priest holes, or when the Inquisition went after people praying in their homes.
Or when Hitler’s minions went after the Jewish and Gypsies everywhere they could.
Cuomo is not far behind the most intolerant periods of history.
He drew red lines around the districts that are solid PT. To choke off their economy, make life miserable for political enemies. Thug pol.
The relationship between the Trump family and the Orthodox Jewish community goes back to Fred Trump. He looked past the funny clothes and odd customs: they were good friends, respect was mutual. He went to weddings and funerals, took our President with him. When PT spoke to a gathering in Florida, he could’ve been talking to his own family.
Ten men needed for a minyan
If they were having a commie party meeting on overthrowing the USA, then it is not illegal to have an unlimited # of people in your house.
4Sure
Don’t forget looting, arson, assault, rioting …
Absurd! I am Literally aghast… How shameful!! ?
Dunno about this one.. I’d like to hear the entire story…
Why didn’t he just tell the officer it was a blm, antifa recruiting event?
What is wrong with those police officers? Entirely ignorant of history? They showed up at this home in a platoon. Some of them appeared to be enjoying the exercise of muscling their way into that home and taking charge of the people who were gathered there. My stomach turned to watch Jews defending themselves and their activity against the police intrusion – in an American city – while being bullied by American police who I am certain would say they “were just following orders”.
Message to Mayor Wannabe Che Guevara, and to the Sons of Super Mario:
NEVER AGAIN.
Anytime the Police see a large group of cars parked at a specific home, they will suspect a large gathering, Duh!!! The Jewish prayer groups should park their cars farther away from the prayer home, in a scattered configuration that doesn’t tip off the Police.
There are severe oddities in the claims by police in NYC.
Shabbat starts at Sundown on Friday and ends at sundown on Saturday.
During Shabbat, no observant Jew uses work saving devices like cars, buses or taxis.
On Shabbat every Orthodox Jew walks anywhere and everywhere.
Quite a few Conservative Jews are just as strictly observant.
Nor would they “drive” somewhere in NYC where they would have to leave their car as they walked home later that night. That is something about NYC to which all residents pay attention.
All of those “cars” parking on that street were people returning home before sundown or after work.
That excuse given by the Police is false and likely given to them by their superiors ignorant of Jewish religious law.
This incident was in Rockland County. Is that still in a very urban area? My impression was that it was like a smaller city, perhaps more suburban, where cars would more likely be used. But, if their practice is to walk everywhere, then maybe large group of cars isn’t a “tip off” method. If the large group of cars isn’t tipping off the Police, and the Orthodox Jews walk to the house at night, it seems that it would be more difficult for the Police to catch them violating the “edict.” Could there be something more sinister about how the Police find out?
Phone call from a new age brownshirt?
Cell phone COVID tracker?
How to turn off iPhone COVID tracker.
The alternative is simple phone tracking by the police using cell tower triangulation. That is really spooky.
Maybe the thing to do is barrage noise jamming: make a bunch of bogus reports from burner phones. Target your local Karens.
Is it still possible these days to buy a “burner” phone?
Cash, wear mask, hat, and sunglasses, buy a TracPhone or similar.
It’s EASIER to buy a burner phone than ever thanks to Corona-chan! Power to the LOLiterariat!
Why do the nyc police enforce anything the mayor says. He hates them! Why are they hassling citizens!
I don’t get it!
Stupid. Worship at the Altar of Totalitarianism and never recover their reputations. Who ever is leading these Thugs is a fool.
NYPD are you Patriots or Bolsheviks??? Choose wisely, even stupidly should conclude DeBlazio is not your friend.
Henry Bowman should visit these Bolshevik officers. One at a time.
Rockland county is not NYC… It is on west side of Hudson river 9 miles northwest of NYC.
DeBlasio has no power there….
Former Rockland County resident (also former NYC resident)… The patches on the cops do not look like NYPD… look more like R/Cty… Just an observation.. This is horrendous regardless!!
Cuomo the Magnificent democRat rules there doesn’t he? NY is just a few steps behind NYC tyranny, Comrade.
I do wish you well however as the CW erupts.
I have also wondered why the police of any agency follows unConstitutional orders.
Especially when these same cities are defunding and attacking law enforcement.
SMH
Do you think the cops are afraid to NOT follow orders?
Also, so many times I’ve thought, “cops should be brave & say “this is a terrible order and we’re NOT gonna obey it!”
This is NOT NYPD!
This is Rockland County NY, which is north of NYC.
The GD e f f i n g police will do whatever their master’s tell them to do. Sorry, but very few will break ranks.
Ok, not NYC. Different neighborhood. But it is Cuomo Country nevertheless, and the tyranny is spreading. This incident suggests that Son of Mario is digging in and now mandating that local magistrates make examples of some, for the “education” of others.
The usurpation of New Yorkers’ constitutional rights is spreading – along with those of the rest of us who are also closeted against our will in other states.
We are talking about the protected 1st Amendment Right to Assemble. I did not check to see if this occurred yesterday / today, but if so, it was the Sabbath. The freedom to gather for worship of these Jews was violated, along with the police state intrusion into the host’s home, based on a neighbor’s report of too many cars parked outside the residence. Someone was probably being assaulted, robbed, and/or killed in the street down the next block.
NEVER AGAIN.
This message is brought to you from the Capitol Region of the People’s Republic of Pennsylvania, now held hostage for 241 days.

Rockland County wouldn’t be NYCPD
Just a FYI: both twit & fb has blocked the ability to share the vid in this story!
Well of course they did because they can They are SKYNET.
I wasn’t complaining. I was just making a statement. So the video is from Skynet? Thanks for letting me know. I follow 2 Skynet news feeds. Maybe I’ll find it on one of the 2.
With vids Handbreak is your friend. Youtube has trouble detecting them when modification s are made. Download the original and change the file name, format and aspect ratio of the video a few different ways and repost them around. Should throw them off.
**correction** HandBrake
Thank you. I will do my best as I am not a computer wiz. However I will make attempts to do so. Can always learn more.
I was able to share it on my FB feed yesterday, when it first was on the internet, just checked, it’s still there, but won’t be surprised if gets one of those warning things forcing people to click on through.
This incident is so out of line, so against undue searches and seizures am shocked those officers thought it was okay to intrude on that man’s home like that. The thought crosses the mind, well, lots of thoughts cross my mind when seeing this, that because they are Jewish it’s okay again to pick on them? Hurts my heart to see this.
Thanks!
I was so impressed with the home owner’s arguing back. God bless him.
I was able to post on Facebook. I was not able to share directly from You Tube, had to copy and paste the link, that has been happening more and more frequently with content deemed verboten. Not sure that it will appear in any of my friends feeds, which is also very common. Commented on my post and tagged my Jewish former and favorite mother in-law, she’s very active on FB so that will give an idea of how deep the censorship goes (I’ve had FB delete links sent to me via Messenger, they are evil incarnate.)
I’ve shared the video from this page more than once on Twitter.
My statement concerning this video was a statement, not a complaint! Am glad u were able to share with others. My experience with it was blocked the day I attempted to do so. Other ppl should try 4 themselves & see if it works for them. I never assume things won’t work until I give it a try.
Now if they had just raised their fists and starting chanting “Black Lives Matter” everything would have been fine.
Will the last Jew out of New York please remember to shut off the lights.
…or bring the lamp with you.
What is the likelihood that the Orthodox Jew owner voted consistently democrat during his adult life? Shadenfreude?
Orthodox??? No, Democrats are for Liberals. orthodox have been voting mostly Republican for years.
Most (truly) Orthodox Jews are conservative. Big divide between them and more secular Jews who feel deeply and generationally identified as liberals, Democrats, and leftists. Different demographics. (Maybe why De Blasio targets Orthodox communities in NYC.)
Not at all likely that Orthodox Jews vote D.
Secular and reform Jews – different story.
Sadly and stupidly, they mostly vote for the loons.
Thanks Treepers for pointing out the distinction between Orthodox and Secular Jews, and their voting habits. This makes it more understandable why Cuomo and De Blasio are targeting these specific Jews.

Blasio: how do I look like I am being proactive and aggressive about COVID without losing votes?
Advisor: target a group that won’t change their votes and that even if they did, you wouldn’t lose anyway.
Blasio: but what if they claim police overreach?
Advisor: don’t go to Harlem
Brilliant! send in the stormtroopers!
Except:
The odds that Orthodox Jews do not know and have on hand the phone number of an excellent lawyer are zero.
Expect these despots and stormtroopers to get sued.
We don’t answer “kristall nachts” at our door!
Nice wordplay there, ropala.
As I keep saying to my 20-something children…..these actions are extremely unsettling and dangerous…..even more so given that these aggressive law enforcement action appear to be targeting Jews….Trump should confront Cuomo’s and DeBlasio’s actions head on with prominent Jewis and other religious leaders by his side.
Unbelievable that there are those (democrats) see and/or saying nothing about these actions….Fascism requires a scapegoat to take action…the scapegoats here are those who push back on these ridiculous restrictions and are the modern day 2020 Holocaust victims …I am not surprised by the push back of Orthodox Jews…especially given the persecution Jews have endured throughout history…
I see this as a HUUUGE issue….one we should ALL be decrying…
Peaceful Antifa protest. No problem. Never mind.
Jews make very handy targets and very handy scapegoats. And it is happening again. All the protests of course did nothing to cause an outbreak. Mismanagement by Cuomo did nothing to cause an outbreak. IT’S THEM JOOS!!! Again. Honestly, it’s time for Jews to leave New York. They are clearly not welcome.
Why do 70% of American Jews vote Democrat?
Well they used to think it was the party of freedom and minorities. That’s been changing. Orthodox are almost all Republican now and many of the Liberal Jews are changing sides or entering the undecided zone due to the blatant antiSemiticism of the left.
Some are Jew-ish because they came out of a Jewish womb. That’s all.
It’s unfortunate that ultra-Orthodox, Black Hat haredim are held accountable for a kneeling Schumer, an apologist for Iran, or any random communist who happens to have been circumcised.
To Hitler they’d ALL be generic Untermenschen.
Orthodox religious Jew have haunting memories of the Gestapo dragging out Jews from their homes.
Any officer the Williamsburg boro park beat should know better.
He could have phoned from his car.
No common sense.
And on the sabbath there are always more people for dinner.
He knows this FACT.
Jews better get some guns for “hunting” if they want to avoid another “haunting.”

Correction
Monsey is not Brooklyn but it is also a concentrated Jewish community with a yuge Covid outbreak.
Dr. Zelenko’s patients live there
The argument apparently stems from Covid-19 social distancing rules that are in place in the county. A gathering of over 10 people would not be allowed in a public space – even a park – in the town of Ramapo, to which Monsey belongs.
Orthodox Jews in the US, as well as in other parts of the world, have been notably resistant to lockdowns designed to slow the spread of infection. They say the rules are incompatible with their religious practices.

Governor Cuomo has designated a number of “red zones” where “non-essential” businesses can not open, and restaurants are forbidden for in-house sales. It appears that “mass gatherings” of more than ten are also forbidden, both indoors and out.
The maps could be construed as delineating ghettos (word choice deliberate). There is a zone in Borough Park in Brooklyn as well as one in Orange County that includes Kiryas Joel.
There are also zones along the Pennsylvania border (Broome, Steuben, and Chemung counties) apparently caused by infected Pennsylvanians crossing into New York.
“It appears that “mass gatherings” of more than ten are also forbidden, both indoors and out.” – this sentence immediately made me think “NAZI’S.”
I live in Broome County and that info is utterly bogus. No one is sick. The “ tests” all claim positive and no one has any symptoms of being sick. I know ten people personally who were told they tested positive and all laughed out loud. It’s a cruel joke by a cruel master. Apparently, the pandemic stops at the borders.
> Covid outbreak.
SO WHAT? They’re adults! Adults make their own choices. IF they get sick there’s a better than 99% chance of survival!
IT’S THEIR CHOICE. GET OUT OF THEIR HOUSE.
These cops are idiots.
Didn’t Anne Frank write a diary about this?

NYC probably has the highest ratios of High Power Jewish lawyers as anywhere in the U.S. and they are going to let a German dictator do this without a peep?
Most of those high power Jew-ish lawyers try to distance themselves from old-fashioned, religious folk who are secure in their own, particular identity.
They’d lose intersectional, woke street cred.
Bill Barr is Silent!
He’s practicing Amazing Grace.
Open a map of Manhattan, close your eyes and drop a finger … there’s a 20% chance of hitting a Jewish household.
I think the “Jewish” aspect of this story is a way to distract from the widespread stazi tactics being employed.
OK – correction. Rockland County is 31% Jewish.
De Blasio is a nut job, literally. He’s destroying New York City. Think about that.
When they knocked on my door my standard response would be “Are you here to round up the Jews?”

Why do I get the feeling that most of the folks present dont drive?
jus wundrin,
Well if this occurred in the last 20 hours, Would say that you have a knowledge of multiple cultures and religions. Which unfortunately many of the general population and the younger population DON’T.
Yes! And that video should have taken place next to some vehicles out on the public way. Easiest exit plan for an officer – slap a ticket on the car and offer anyone present a nice day.
This incident dovetails into Sundance’s article yesterday about the weaponization of COVD :Rules”.
The “Rules” imposed stink, but the selective enforcement of said “Rules” becomes an even greater concern.
Adolph De Blasio showing us what Democrats really think of Jews. Just following the orders of Der Fuhrer Cuomo!
Or perhaps Il Duce Cuomo?
So why do Cuomo and DiBlasio hate Jews?
1. They have the support of liberal Jews, who make the political donations, have representation in the media and despise the Orthodox. The policing will never be covered as anti-Semitic in mainstream NYC media, rather it will be presented as evil (heretics against Poz) Orthodox Jews spreading plague. Which is itself an ancient anti-Semitic trope.
2. The Orthodox support Trump at over 80 percent. They are concentrated in particular sections of Brooklyn in enough numbers to have their own representatives, which makes them a thorn in the side of the one-party state.
I figured there had to be some reason…they are focused on Orthodox/Hasidic Jews..does the rest of the Jewish community not see the danger of this?
Leftist Jews hate, hate the Orthodox more than they love themselves. In NYC one of the goals of assimilated or social climbing Jews has long been to never be mistaken for fresh-off-the-boat Eastern European immigrants. The Orthodox (Hasidic) upset all that by dressing up like people from 18th century Poland, speaking Yiddish and doing their funny dances. The libs also want Israel to function not as a normal country or, God forbid, a Jewish country, but as some sort of international showcase to make American Jews look better in their own eyes and in the eyes of non-Jewish Americans.
An analogy would be the situation of gay Trump supporters. Big Gay left and Never Trumper Gay republicans want those people gone, out of concern for their own image and political acceptability. Group solidarity goes out the window when vanity and within-group status hierarchy are at stake.
Ten, maybe or maybe not coincidentally, is the number of men required for a quorum to have an Orthodox prayer service. Enforcing “ten or more” means they can’t gather to pray.
No way the nonreligious Jewish leftist majority in New York cares or will stand up against this. Their true religion is Prog, which creates a bizarro-world in which the Orthodox Jews are the heretics. Similar to the current Pope vs traditional Catholicism.
Why ten? I find it odd, because I think a gathering of ten Jews is significant. I forget what the circumstances are. Perhaps, some kind soul will set me straight …
alvasman,
Ten is required for a prayer quorum, short answer. Following link gives more information
https://www.israel365news.com/82741/jewish-prayer-quorum-require-ten-men/
Thank you for the reply. It’s difficult for me to read the article and not come away with a notion the selection of ten is aimed at the Jewish people. Do I misunderstand?
Ten practicing male Jews. Visitors women and children don’t count. They are welcome to join the pryers but certain prayers can only be said in the presence of 10 adult male Jews. They didn’t make the law. It’s right there in the bible.
Thanks for the reply. Having re-read my comment, I see I was thinking one thing but wrote another.
I did read the article linked to by Ninja7. So, I have some understanding of a minyan. What I wondered is why the NY authorities settled on a prohibition against ten or more when surely they would have known the repercussions on the Jewish people. Or, is it simply a matter they don’t care andd how persons are impacted by their dictates?
In short, the three daily prayers require a quorum of ten to be recited in full – as does the Torah reading.
In Israel, they purposely made the limit*more*than 10 to avoid this problem.
They, I assuming rabbis, set the number at more than ten. To avoid what problem?
I think they mean that the Israeli health authorities set the maximum number allowed in one gathering above 10, to avoid a revolt by the Orthodox who need at least that many for organized prayer services.
Israel is not yet run by rabbis, but could be in a generation or two as the Orthodox are having many more children than the seculars.
Oh, I see. That makes sense. Thank you for the clarification, as well as pertains to the situation in Israel.
Not going to happen. Too many Orthodox children leave and become secular. The military is a big factor in that. This is why the Orthodox work so hard to keep their exemption and the rest fo israel’s works so hard to limit it.
Compromises can be worked out.
Scheduled, outdoor rotations of 10 – always the same 10 – separated by at least 6 feet.
They say politics is local.
So is 5,ooo people gathering around local T.V. station anchors, cameramen,sound technicians and all the producers homes and not letting them get to work.These people spew the hatred towards our president and us, time to stomp our feet at the source of broadcasting.
I’ve seen this movie before. Don’t want to be a spoiler, but 99.9% of it is really horrible. But, the ending is glorious.
Peaceful assembly is guaranteed by the Constitution, unlike “mostly peaceful” riots, arson, and looting…
“If you like your freedom, you can keep your freedom”. – New Democrat campaign slogan. Enforced by police.
This is the mayor of NYC sending the police to strong arm donations from an ethnic minority.. It is straight up gangster protection money collection.
The video labels the police as NYPD, yet the story identifies this as Rockland county, New York, which I believe is correct; the neighborhood street seems to be a suburban street, not an NYC street. So this particular incident has nothing to do with the infamous Mayor de Blasio (my mayor; Ugh!), although it could be easily be the case, because as I recall he has also singled out Orthodox Jews in the recent past.

Jewish Congregations Sue New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo For Hot Spot Lockdowns
Cuomo issued an executive order on Oct. 6 limiting the size of religious gatherings in COVID-19 hot spots to 25% capacity or a maximum of 10 people in red-zones, the Associated Press (AP) reported. His order came one day after he threatened to shut down synagogues. (RELATED: Orthodox Jewish Community Protests Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s New Coronavirus Lockdown Restrictions)
The suit alleges Cuomo’s executive order “is blatantly anti-Semitic, creating religious-observance based color coded ‘hot-spot’ zones directed towards particular Jewish communities,” and “specifically singles out the orthodox Jewish community in what has proven to be the latest extension of Governor Cuomo’s streak of anti-Semitic discrimination.”

Too many turning into sheep and I’m seeing a revolt on the horizon. Let the left stay home and hide or stand like obedient fools inside their cute little plastic circles. Every time I see a masked driver with the windows rolled up I go “Yep, Biden voter.”
Massachusetts has been playing this game as well, though a bit more subtly and not in a pattern targeting Orthodox Jews.
When a cell of Subversive Citizens acts against the Interests of the Commonwealth by holding a “party” it is not only broken up by the police; the Boston media also makes sure to shame the Undesirable Behavior by highlighting such Irresponsible Actions on the evening news. The most blatant example occurred back in August, when CBS 4 breathlessly reported “Social Hosting” charges were being filed against the parents of a house party involving several teenagers.
Having regrettably spent a majority of my life in the Commonwealth but never having heard of “Social Hosting” charges before, I wondered if our glorious Party, excuse me, I mean Legislature, had issued, I mean passed, a new series of Covid-inspired mandates to ensure our communal health and safety. Alas, I was disappointed as no such mandates had been handed down, at least not under the title of “Social Hosting.” Social Hosting, in fact, is the technical legal term for long established statute. In common English it translates to the act of providing alcohol to minors.
Now, I am certain this choice of phrasing was a coincidence. Surely it did not occur to CBS 4 that using the phrase “Social Hosting” rather than “supplying alcohol to minors,” as it has done every other time when reporting on such stories in the past, would cause people to think there are new legal penalties for hosting a house party. Surely CBS 4 would not purposefully mislead the public by creating fear, intimidation, and public shame around the perfectly legal act of peaceful assembly in a private residence by using ambiguous language in order to conflate peaceful assembly in a private residence with the crime of supplying alcohol to minors. Surely CBS 4 is not spreading propaganda in order to gaslight its audience.
And most surely of all, focusing on this story and framing it within the context of Covid had nothing to do with impending start of school, and had nothing to with the insufferable campaign being waged by the teachers’ unions to keep the schools closed, which has nothing to do with the narratives being pushed out by the Biden campaign.
That would imply this is all being coordinated for specific political objectives. And that is just wrong think, comrades.
In answer to your question, Sundance: Yes, I believe it is “illegal” to have a gathering of more than 10 people indoors. That is why we couldn’t have wakes and funerals. That is why we had all those insipid “drive by” birthday caravans, with celebrants tooting their horns as they drove past their relatives’ houses. I saw them for children, and even one for a man in his 90’s. This could’ve been his last birthday. Nomatter. Imagine the heartbreak of the elderly, the sick and dying in assisted living, nursing homes and hospitals, who are not permitted to be with loved ones.
Once summer came people flocked outside, so this wasn’t as noticeable an issue. But I read that a catering hall (another dying, ‘non-essential’ NY business) was recently fined 12k for hosting a birthday celebration.
The Hasidics ain’t having none of it. I’m rooting for them. Once Amy Coney Barrett is seated on the Supreme Court, and I hope these Hasidic jews sue the snot out of Commo and his jackboots.
Yes, things are about to get real in Commo’s New York. Not all police are playing that game, either. We’ve had rallies of thousands to support our police on Long Island.
Point to the law, passed by the New York State legislature and signed by the Governor of New York, which states that gatherings of ten or more people are prohibited.
If no so such law exists, then any prohibition against gatherings of ten or more people in the State of New York is unenforceable. Current prohibition is being enforced under the aegis of the Governor’s emergency powers, which were not intended to last for indefinite periods of time. Therefore any enforcement is in murky legal waters if not outright illegal itself.
I know you are not supporting “pro-illegal” side of the argument, but there is a difference between a “law” and a “mandate” and there are far too many people for whom such distinctions are becoming blurred. The longer the “mandates” continue to stay in effect unquestioned and unchallenged as the “new normal”, those distinctions will become more blurred and have larger consequences.
For example, is a “virtual quorum” still a quorum? Can Congress be considered in session via Zoom? Does that change the Executive’s recess powers? Sounds like an outlandish hypothetical, but here’s another question no one bothered to ask: should Senator Harris have been allowed to participate in the ACB hearings from her office? Was that even legal?
Doesn’t matter. On the books or not. It’s 100% unconstitutional to issue Nazi-like orders to limit the People’s ability to assemble or have any gathering they wish on private property.
Just because it’s passed into “law” doesn’t make it constitional. We found that out recently here in Michigan.
Once we have a functioning Supreme Court, we *should* be able to nip this in the bud. This is unconstitutional.
The commies are not only attacking our liberties, they are messing with freedom of religion.
I won’t go back to church because the marxists have imposed social distance and wearing those infernal masks. They have openly promoted open borders Globalism, as well.
I already converted from Catholic to Lutheran. Maybe I should’ve converted to Hasidic Jew. At the very least, I admire these people for having the courage of their convictions.
The picture shows police inside the house. If they were not invited in they have no business being in the house unless they have a warrant. We still have the right to be secure in our homes!
Damn straight. The 4th Amendment doesn’t enforce itself.
Police cannot enter a residence or search your car without a warrant. Period. And it usually will take hours and a lot of paper work to get one.
It’s really unfortunate that we are all supportive of the police…yet when THEY try to violate our civil rights then it’s a problem. And at that point they can FO.
They probably answered the door. Once the door is opened and the cops see something, they can enter. It’s like a traffic stop. Once you are pulled over for one infraction, they can search the car too.
This has been going on for months at universities. If police see “too many” cars they break up the gathering. I know one student who had troopers at the door of her residence, ordering her to quarantine for two weeks, because they spied her NY license plates in the driveway. This was out of state, off campus housing.
“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

1. This “hotspot,” or more correctly “cluster zone” is 35 miles north of New York City, NOT part of DeBlasio’s domain. It is a suburban area that has been identified by Cuomo’s tracking … tied to some unpublished rate of positive case loads.
2. Cuomo enacted (late September, effective Oct 9) yet another rule, restricting social gatherings within cluster zones to 10 or fewer people.
3. This zone is an area inhabited by Hasidim, often in multi-family apartment dwellings.
It appears the police made their “unacceptable group size” determination by the number of cars parked near the building.
When are we going to throw this tyrant out of office and let our police get back to regular order?
This is so very upsetting for me
Jewish familes are large.
Purposely.
Having 10 or more children is not unknown in Hasidic and Orthodox families (to replace those Jewish souls murdered by the Nazis)
Like Amish families but more so
Often extended family members live in one apartment
So this Gestapo raid is BS
And you’re right-Jews dont drive or shop on Shabbat-they WALK to the synagogue and may go to friends for lunch after synagogue
Waiting for Herr Cuomo to break the glass windows.
It’s staggering how many Americans roll over for this crap.
Americans take it and take it and take it, up to a point. After that point, only God himself can help you from their wrath. That point is coming.
