“Rabbi” Lincoln: we are outraged. We are outraged at Jews like you who betray your fellow Jews at the Rubashkin plant and fall into the anti-Shchitah Nazi-like propaganda plot.
Thanks to your carelessness, hundreds of Jewish families are now unemployed, in the middle of a recession, and a major kosher-meat crisis has befallen upon our communities.
Is it really “cruelty to animals” that motivated you? I think it’s not, it’s sinas chinam, needless hatred of your fellow Jews!
SHAME ON YOU!

You can’t have CW principles of “social justice” without Bible values because then they morph into goonish belief systems like we’ve seen in Eastern Europe(READ ABOUT SOME EXCESSES OF PETA). Ritual practice without regard for the Prophets’ message of social justice evolves into empty repetitive ritual and complete hubris to everyone and everything outside the ever heightening walls around their world. Doesen’t anyone read Micah OR Isaiah anymore?

17 do not plot evil against your neighbor, and do not love to swear falsely. I hate all this,” declares the HaSHem our LORD.
19 This is what the LORD Almighty HaShem says: “The fasts of the fourth, fifth, seventh and tenth months will become joyful and glad occasions and happy festivals for Judah. Therefore love truth and peace.”

MMMMM let’s see… worry about animals –which I do care about, I’m a Vegan— or have even a modicum of concern for fellow human beings being exploited as cheap labor for pure profit. I don’t have to say anything about the racist lack of humanity of those who run Agriprocessors —their own web site (see small side article entitled A Tale of Two Cities) says it all. How could we dare to question people who think Palestinians are —in their own words “equal to feces”….

is the saying goes – it’s not reformed, it’s misinformed…why does this cons “rabbi” who had the opportunity to teach something about tzaar baa’lei chayim focus on and take the opportunity to bad mouth charedi jews, becuse it’s easy and let the record be told that charedi ratio wise are the most honest people – jews included – out there…

Orthodox scandals reflect badly on all Jews. If you tolerate lawless behavior, then you can’t be surprised by comments like this.

This pig Lincoln, may his name be oblitirated forever is a classic example of a jealous sick twisted scum vermin snot ball. What does his movement have to offer? Elliott Spitzer ? Or how about all the dirty non religious scum that transgress the torah day in and day out. He is one jealous rat that knows that authentic judaism is orthodox jewry and any thing else is a farce and should be distroyed. Rot in hell mamzer , your end is near
