Satmer101
Bnei Brak is a big city, many neighborhoods, some very fancy and luxurious too, some much less so. What happens in one neighborhood, might never even effect another, simply because of the specific *flavor* of that neighborhood and status. What transpired in Bnei Brak was a breach of boundaries, and this has happened before. If the commenter wants to talk about holiness, the Tanakh is full of examples where “keeping the peace” was not the priority when the sanctity of the camp was at stake:
Phinehas (Pinchas): He didn’t wait for a committee or worry about “optics” when he saw blatant wantonness in the camp. His “violent” act was what actually stayed the plague and was counted as righteousness.
Elijah (Eliyahu): He didn’t take a “milquetoast” stance against the prophets of Baal. He drew a hard line in the sand.
The Maccabees: They didn’t prioritize being “good citizens” under a regime that tried to rewrite their laws; they became warriors.
The “Wanton” Element
One thing always leads to another. You cannot “troll” a community, disregard its core sensitivities regarding modesty and the role of women, and then act shocked when the reaction is physical.
