After King Soopers massacre, Boulder’s Jews mourn friends and neighbors
Forward . Com ^ | Sharon Udasin

Just before authorities released the names of the victims of the Boulder, Colorado shooting, Liz Hanson woke up and got dressed, slipping into a pair of tie-dyed pants she bought at the store of her friend Lonna Bartkowiak.

Moments later she learned that Bartkowiak, 49, had been shot and killed.

“I found out she was gone,” Hanson said in an interview with the Forward . “I looked down at my pants because she had bought them at her store – she picked them out for me.”........Hanson is a member of Congregation Bonai Shalom, where London-native Rabbi Marc Soloway serves as spiritual leader. In the aftermath of Monday’s tragedy, Soloway expressed a similar mix of grief and rage, noting that this mass shooting occurred just days after a District Court judge blocked the City of Boulder from enforcing its two-year-old ban on assault weapons. Bonai Shalom has a gun violence prevention committee, he added, as well as an annual Shabbat service to memorialize gun victim

This seems to be just an article about Jews feeling bad for the victims.

IT IS A JEWISH SITE.

I searched to verify my thought, and found he had
been born outside the U.S.

Thanks for mentioning it.

The problem with the refugees isn’t an easy fix. If people
on the ground there help you, they are the first to get
slaughtered when you leave.

So you bring some of them here, and this happens.

Damned if you do. Damned if you don’t.

He was born in Syria in 1999, and came to America as a toddler “through no fault of his own” and became a U.S. citizen. It’s time somebody grows some junk and turns these toddler bastards around at the border. They grow up to be criminals because their sperm and egg donors ran them off when they were “toddlers”. “Toddlers” should NOT BE ALLOWED into the R rated U.S. without being accompanied by an adult.

Is that true that there are zero Jews here?

Please emphasize this. Everyone here is assuming this is about Jewish victims because it’s about Jews mourning.

But it’s not at all. It is a Jewish site that is taking the local Jew perspective of the atrocity.

No. His familycame here. They run a shop and his sister and brother made comments about the atrocity.

It’s like blaming MP40’s for the Holocaust.

There seems to have been no Jewish victims. The Jewish community is rightly alarmed because a Muslim killer might have picked the area because it’s where Jews noticeably live, and several victims were known to them personally.

Chabad rabbis worldwide learn details of stuff like this very rapidly via WhatsApp.

I get the feeling that Trump’s meetings with all manner of people are quite cordial.

Unlike Biden, who, I suspect, has a nasty temper. It’s just a feeling I have.

Then you learn what his comments were, and it is very troubling. He was indoctrinated here

He's basically an average commenter in the Washington Post comments section.

I shop a KS in Denver that is similarly adjacent to a mostly Jewish neighborhood. I often see Jews shopping the store. It has a kosher aisle and several freezers stocked with kosher items. But I wouldn’t label it a “kosher store.”

King Soopers is like many supermarkets. I know in West Hartford, CT (Mostly Jewish suburb) the local Stop & Shop has lots of Kosher foods

He was probably indoctrinated by his father, who was a radical Islamist. I think that’s the person of interest close to the shooter that the FBI was supposedly watching.

This scumbag was a Obunghole import or spawned by Syrian colonizers flown into the country at night. Who knows how many Syrian were flushed into America secretly and ticking time bombs like the third world invaders to our south

is King Sooper a kosher grocery or just a re-branded Kroger store that carries kosher items?

how many of the victims were Jewish?

and, not meaning to be offensive here, but a serious question: why would Jewish people be anti-gun when their credo is ‘never again’?

We now find that many of the victims were Jewish and shopping at a kosher grocery store King Sooper. This isn't being told by the media. Wonder why?

This is the first I've heard of it...

Conservative Jews are NOT generally anti-gun... either are conservative Catholics.

Lots of liberal iberal Jews are anti-gun as are lots of liberal Catholics... and liberal Protestants...

I assume your religion has liberals and conservatives in it, right?

yes, wrote about this with an earlier post.

this was clearly a Jewish hate crime by an antisemetic islamo-fascist who swore allegiance to ISIS but strangely every media report fails to include these facts.

The problem is they are cuckolded wish-washy Jews running the synagogue.

Read it and you’ll see how they invited the Moslems to be with them in a mourning session.

So pathetic, this liberal love fest (except for whites).

Obama did the same thing when a jihadi murdered Jews at a Paris deli in 2015. Denied the antisemitism until forced to admit the connection,

Most Americans will never see this reported,
But if a white guy shoots up a Pittsburgh synagogue...it’s hate crime caused by Trump.
