The Rabbi threw the first punch.
I cannot tell you how many times I've had screaming liberals in my face and how I've wanted to beat the crap out of them.
And I have reveled in the occasions where a liberal hit me.
It's only been twice, unfortunately. Once was at a pro-Life event where the other people were non-violent, pacifist Mennonites. I was there with a Mennonite friend and I am not a pacifist. One of the liberals (a rather vicious lesbian) came up and punched me in the side of the head and she immediately lost a few teeth. And then the sheriff's deputies asked me of I was okay while they cuffed her. The second was at the 1995 Inaugural for CA Gov. Wilson and a shabby looking freak hit me with a sign. I didn't get a chance to hit him back before the CHP was on him like white on rice. And he "resisted arrest", which was fun to watch.
Had I hit either of these people first it would've been ME going to jail and rightly so.
My sympathies do indeed lie with the Rabbi and if he was up to kicking someone's butt then it's a shame the Nazi didn't start the fight. Had the Nazi started the fight and the Rabbi ended it I'd be cheering him on.
But if you stop and look at this again you'll see the Rabbi has now made a victim of a Nazi by starting the fight. And as I said in an earlier post, the Nazis will use this as "proof" of some idiotic point about "all" Jews when it is just one man who lost his cool.
I totally sympathize with the Rabbi, but in the end he has made Jews look bad and he has made a "hero" out of this jerk to his sycophants.
I applaud you for your restraint. It will be interesting to see how Rabbi Fine and Boswell fare in court.

I have one problem with your post--I don't think the Rabbi should be expected to represent all Jews, anymore than Michael Jackson represents all Blacks, or Jim Bakker represented all Evangelicals, et all; what you do think?
"I totally sympathize with the Rabbi, but in the end he has made Jews look bad and he has made a "hero" out of this jerk to his sycophants."
I don't know. Maybe Jews need to look "bad" in just this don't mess with me kind of way.
