Three hundred and thirteen and counting. That is the number of comments so far that my post about the Jewish Rosa Parks generated. I never thought it would. This is one of the largest number of comments ever received by my blog. In large part it was a debate between those who condemned the actions of the Charedim who acted like Nazis and those who condemned the woman who received the beating berating her for arrogance at not budging from her seat and inciting the response.
But one thing that kept coming up was the question of the story itself. It was claimed by many that it probably never happened. “Proofs” were offered like “ If it really happened, why didn’t the media cover it for?!” Well, we can put that puppy to rest now. It happened. End of Story.
