I agree. Jake is making the Extra Extras more thick than say 3-4 bold ones.

"Not allowing Jews to live in certain neighborhoods of [Jerusalem] 'is segregation,' said Mr. Hikind, a Democrat who represents several heavily Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods in Brooklyn."
There is no contradiction here. Nope. None at all.
The Jews in the neighborhood Hikind represents are free to live there or any other neighborhood of their choosing. They voluntarily live near people of a similar background, so what? There is no government policy telling them where they can or can't live according to their religion. Big f'ing difference. Obviously too big for your small mind to grasp.
Yes, they are, but you're not free to live there. If you don't believe me, try to buy a "condo" (aka Section 8 housing) in one of "their" new developments.
Right, just don't think you can ride a bike through THEIR neighborhood wearing whatever you want.
Or make them move their cars when their parking has parking.
Uh, you are free to ride your bike through THEIR neighborhood, they just don't like it, which is THEIR right.
I'm not sure what to make of the second part of your statement...
Right, free to get attacked. Awesome!
Second part refers tot he fact that some people think religon should exempt them from the city's parking laws.
