No welcome for Jews staying near hospital
"This is what I'm talking about," said Cathy Mills as she stood in her driveway across from Good Samaritan Hospital watching a young Hasidic man wearing a black suit and stovepipe hat walk briskly from the hospital into the house next door.
"This will go on all day and tomorrow. Complete strangers coming and going, coming and going," Mills said Friday.
The stranger was Isaac Guttman from Kiryas Joel. He was nervous and hungry, but mostly nervous. His wife was at Good Samaritan Hospital about to give birth to their first child.
Inside the house, he paced in the living room. Minutes later, as if readying for a deep-water plunge, he drew a large breath, opened the door and started back to the hospital.
On Friday and Saturday, Guttman had - at no charge - free reign of the house, which is owned and operated by Bikur Cholim ("visiting the sick"). The Monsey-based nonprofit group offers Orthodox Jews who are visiting family members at Good Samaritan a place to eat and sleep (and pace) during the Sabbath, which lasts from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. Orthodox Jews are forbidden to drive during the Sabbath.
But Mills and her neighbors, along with village officials, call the yellow two-story house at 5 Hillcrest Road an illegal transient motel and say it should be shuttered. In response, Bikur Cholim has filed a federal lawsuit, claiming its religious rights are being violated.
The village denied a zoning variance for the home in November on the grounds that it was located on a residential block. Village Attorney Terry Rice said nowhere in the village is there zoning that would allow the Bikur Cholim house.
Bikur Cholim, which operates similar homes at hospitals in Nyack and Westchester Medical Center, had operated a Shabbos house a few streets over for years without any complaints or interference from the village.
Only when the group bought the home on Hillcrest in April did the village step in, citing the house for code violations and for illegal use.

What the heck does collecting welfare have to do with a bikur cholem home near a hospital. Sussex get your facts straight most of the people using that house have jobs, and alot of them are filthy rich. Go take your anti semitic rhetoric somplace else asshole.

I'm Orthodox in Brooklyn and came upon this blog on the internet.....I think the Bikur Cholim's Good Samaritan Hospital is a great idea. This guy in Sussex county isn't an anti-semite. YOU (anonymous) are though. it is Jews like you (full of hatred for your own) that bring everything down. Mr. Sussex is entitled to his opinion...He appears to be one of us and not the KKK. OH and PS Anonymous---Suffern,New York is not in Sussex County, New Jersey. Guess you haven' lived in this country long enough to realize that. Stop eating pork and having relations with arab women..It is very, very bad for all of us concerned-----that is why you will never ever becaome a rebbe---SHALOM and apologies to Mr. Sussex.

Obviously Anonymous has no response to my Orthodox friends.I grew up in Lakewood and went through BMG. Just because i live in Sussex County doesn't make me a self-hater.
Apparently you are though. Someone needs to hit you (the Anonymous Jew) upside your head. Scumbags like you will not attain the status of grand rebbe. You can always collect welfare fropm the local social service agency though. Think of the internet as reality because i am ramming bacon down your throat right now as you crawl back to this blog to read my response you know i'm going to write. self hating asshole.

SUSSEX AND EVERYONE ELSE HOW DID YOU KNOW ALL THAT ABOUT ME. YES I "TAKE IT UP THE ASS AND SUCK COK" AND FILTHY. I AM ALSO AN ANTI SEMITE AND EVERYTHING ELSE EVERYBODY WROTE. BUT AT LEAST I KNOW THTA A BIKUR CHOLIM HOME FOR YIDDEN TO USE ON SHABBOS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WELFARE OR UNEMPLOYMENT. WHEREAS YOU IN YOUR SELF HATING JEWISH LIFE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A BIKUR CHOLIM HOME IS EVEN FOR. SO THAT MEANS YOU HAVE THE INTELLIGENCE OF A 2 YEAR OLD. GOD HAVE PITY ON YOU YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR FRIENDS OOPS SORRY I FORGOT PEOPLE LIKE YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS YOU PROBABLY LIVE IN SOME SMALL HOLE ALL BY YOURSELF.

By the way Sussex when I wrote I first comment I really thought your comment was written by a non jewish Anti Semite. Now that you tell me you are Jewish and even went to BMG that makes your commenst more puzzling. Are you stupid?
What the heck does collecting welfare have to do with a bikur cholem home near a hospital? Whats your IQ 65? I mean come on, if you want to make a comment that alot of jews get welfare fine make the comment but I have to ask again. What the heck does collecting welfare have to do with a bikur cholem home near a hospital.
Now you will probably say that I suck COK and I am filthy and you are stuffing bacon down my throat and you will probably come up with some more stuff to say. But at least I am more intelligent than a 2 year old. Which isn't something you can ssay for yourself.

oh look Mr anonymous(the closet Hamas supporter)has returned bikur sholim hospital and not a bikur cholem hospital. You haven't been in America long enough to know how to spell words like these and other properly. I wonder if you returned from Palestine after casting a vote for your favorite party. The go collect welfare or get a real job comment was directed at you to begin with and nobody else. Kindly note my previous comments about you now apply to your mum. shalom little nebish

Anonymous can't join the discussion because he went to the county social services office to get his welfare check. Anonymous probably receives his unemployment check in the mail however.I do not wish to add anything vulgar about him. It does not appear that he went to BMG. He wouldn't last anyhow. He has a lot of hatred and will never become a rebbe.That is for sure. Deep down inside he hates his family and transfers those thoughts towards you Sussex. Anonymous would probably drown in Lake Hopatcong on a calm day. We all know what a biker sholim is for. A secret homosexual like anonymous has no reason to go one. I'll call later ensanda

HEHEHEHEHEHE you guys are getting funnier by the minute. Anonymous will never have offspring due to reasons that have become all too evident. I think his one comment indicates that his age en espanol es Tres (3) anos. Either that or he has a craving for two year olds. SHALOM AND BUENA VISTA. NOTICE THE IMPROVEMENTS IN MY SECOND TOUNGE FROM THE SHUL M'O'

Its the shabbos again and i hope that the bikur sholim is busy. it is a great idea. BMG RULES anonymous. Cannot stay on the internet long as it is Friday (now early Saturday)Anonymous is quite stupid and will have to resarch who Friday was actually named after. He is not a world traveller. I guess you guys will be in Byram tomorrow Got to go. May the warm light of the Lord shine brightly upon you all (except anonymous) in this 40 degree cold evening weather. SHALOM and don't drink too much of that evaclear and fruit punch---hiccup

i forgot...hey sussex don't forget that i know a little pych as well. i "anal"lyzed anonymous' statements. He was the first one on the blog to throw out the word asshole in response to your original (somewhat crazy) statement. He provoked your nasty but cool response. He later said how you you live in "a small hole" by yourself. i see "a ss hole" hidden in that statement again. Anonymous is the only GAY jew in Rockland County without a doubt..kindly ignore him when he speaks....

You said that right. The bikur sholim house is a great idea though in my opinion. That foul anonymous is good for nothing but hating people-Jewish or otherwise. there is a spot in hell already set aside for him.May GOD urinate upon his head as walks to collect his public assistance on the shabbos. SHALOM

Yes i Did--I got your youngest sister pregnant 9 months back and had no choice. I had to stay there the other night while she gave birth down the road. I'm not sure if i was the father though as she had a dozen different partners that night. try not to self hate in the future-it is quite bad for all of us concerned. Shalom this quiet Shabbos.
