A new game circulating on social media inspired a group of teenagers to assault a Jewish girl in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, and resulted in a display of hatred toward Jews upon the suspects arrest, local blog CrownHeights.info reported on Wednesday.
The game is called What the hell are they? The objective is to hit someone on their feet or legs if he or she is wearing nicer shoes than you, shout what the hell are they and then run away.
The victim, a 13-year-old student of local Chabad girls school Beis Rivkah, was approached by two girls and a boy as she walked down Lefferts Avenue. One of the girls shoved and kicked her, then shouted the games mantra.
An eyewitness to the assault called the neighborhood patrol Shomrim. Others chased the assailant down Brooklyn Avenue and eventually into the Public Library on New York Avenue and Maple Street, where the teenager remained in an attempt to hide from police.
Police arrived at the scene and arrested the 12-year-old assailant after Shomrim apprehended her and brought the witness, another young Jewish girl, to the library so she could identify the perpetrator. The victim said she didnt understand what her attacker had yelled until police explained the game to her and she confirmed that it was in fact what the suspect screamed, according to the report.
The young assailant admitted to attacking the Jewish girl. After apologies from the assailant and her parents, and also warnings to her from her parents and the police, she was released to her parents custody without charge.
According to CrownHeights.info, the scene at the Public Library escalated into an ugly display of anti-Semitism as Shomrim held the assailant and waited for police to arrive. Adults shouted anti-Semitic slurs and called for violence against the Jews, simply for being Jewish and standing up for their rights, the blog said.
The reporter for the blog said it was one of the ugliest displays of hate and anti-Semitism that he had ever witnessed.
This is why I hate all them Jews; I would kill them all; I hate them all from 2 years old to 80 years old, shouted a man who appeared to be in his 40s, the blog said. A woman, who appeared to be in her 60s, said to the victim, Next time someone hits you, you beat them back up; you dont call the police.
Not a good idea. They vote 80%-20% for socialist every single time
FYI, if 20% of jews vote Conservative, Chabad jews are very much in that bunch. Very conservative, see thru the won, support Bibi, support Israel, vote GOPtp where they can, vote GOPe where otherwise no other alternative.
It is no accident that the cities, counties and states that are the worse off with respect to crime, poverty and unemployment are dominated by the Party of Jim Crow.
This sick obsession with nice shoes is certainly one sign of cultural rot. A new 'game' built around how desirable the shoes are that someone is wearing.
This is not shoe related, this is race-related.
The urban culture seems to have settled on shoes as the “wealth signal” to each other.
That’s why they’ll live in a shthole Section 8 apartment and have brand new sneakers of the latest popular sports player.
Don’t forget the bling
Shoes are part of it, they've become such a status symbol and obsession in some groups. Someone from a hated group with better shoes is hated that much more.
Pumped up kicks.
How much will it take until the Jewish population deserts Brooklyn?
They don’t have to. They only have to wait. By my own observations over 20 years it’s Blacks who are getting pushed out of Brooklyn.
Chabad children (and adults) have an unmistakable style of dress. Did the assailants know the victim was a Jew? Certainly. Did they target her for that specific reason? I'd bet on it.
A federal hate-crimes investigation will get to the bottom of this, I'm sure. /s
Thanks for the mention. I agree with your conclusion.
“How much will it take until the Jewish population deserts Brooklyn?”
The Jews should never abandon their neighborhoods. That’s their home. Nobody should leave their neighborhoods if invaders attack. Organize, attack and drive them out. Pursue them until they’re exhausted, and then do what you want to them in order to ensure that they will never return - ever.

Considering the cost of Air Jordans and similar flashy sneakers sold to the Sons of Obama, this game could be played differently.
That group vote conservative, you can be sure. They are God-fearing, Torah-observant folks for whom family values and freedom are paramount.
