And for all the stupid fucking racists in the audience who might use this as 'proof' that teh jews are ebil and you are righteous, please note that in saying that and looking at them with contempt, you are the EXACT SAME as these men who kicked this woman. Calling someone a stupid american who doesn't know her place is identical to calling someone a dirty jew who doesn't know their place.

More primitive group based social dynamics. The religion is not at fault as its but a tool of others to enforce a status quo.

Strict rules of behavior and status among the sexes unfortunately lapse over from generation to generation. Problem being those who started such divides are no longer around to be refuted, and thus these directives are cast in stone so to speak.

The problem is that its hard to reform these old ways of life without it becoming an attack on the religion itself, judisim being one where you are easilly labeled a racist more than not. You have to work around the outlet people have Wide open to catch any attacks on their beliefs in this sense.

Again, many are watching like hawks for anyone to validate their fervent belief. Many people are eager to be martyrs, ready to nail themselves up so they can have their "moment". Self validation turned in on itself when people don't go out and do something positive to validate themselves.

Its identical of the people on the bus kicking her, and those who attack the jews as a whole.
