Leave the punishment to G-d.
It doesn’t do you any good to be filled with rage and hate when what’s done is done.
We do not need to suffer further.
A violent man was violently attacked because this is what happens to people who live by violence.
He must have survived for a reason, and we can only hope that this latest twist causes him some remorse for the horrible, horrible thing he has done. And that he can use this remorse to work for a better world.

Not surprised.

Nelson must have gotten someone pretty angry if that soneone came after him with an ice pick. I would venture to guess he’s still a shady character despite his protestations to the contrary.

it was wrong?!
that’s a pretty subtle way to describe a vicious and senseless murder!

"measure for measure!!!"

Australia, it is our business to hack away at Lemrick yevach shmo
September 13, 2010 12:27 pm

Believe me, Norman Rosenbaum may he be well, has suffered years and is still suffering daily over his brother’s death. Lemrick is scum of the earth and again and again, hopefully Hashem will put him through dozens more punishments till the grave. I’m sorry to sound like this, but we are talking of a horrifying cold blooded creep.

guys i dont really think that its our place to get back at lemrick (speaking to everyone except people directly involved with 1991) i think we should just leave the judgement to Him. whatever He decides to happen will happen no matter what WE say.
but i still think that what Lemrick did was wrong

wow

however, amy he still die a slow and painful death!!

No brain, no damage
September 13, 2010 4:09 am

I am truly disappointed that he is in stable condition, and I wish him a long lifetime of pain and disability. However, I also understand that brain damage is not a concern when the likes of Lemrick Nelson YMS sustains a head injury.

You are right. Thank you for bringing out the truth.

But this article is a reprint from the NY Post. I hope you will also send your comment to them, as they are the source of the wrongful description of what happened.

Like it says in Pirkei Avos:
Al de’ateft atfuch v’soif metayfuyich yetufun…
VIN: “The family of Yankel Rosenbaum, the Jewish Orthodox doctoral student Nelson stabbed in the riots, called it Old Testament justice.
“Thou who drowns someone else, will drown,” said Isaac Abraham, a spokesman for the Rosenbaum family. “It is now that the stabber gets stabbed. ”

What goes around comes around....

but he dies at an old age, it’s really counted as a punishment…

Well said No. 19
September 12, 2010 8:56 pm

This is just the first blow to Nelson. An ice pick represents is a “cold” heartless instrument picking away at solid ice…There will be more IY”H coming Lemrick. Stay tuned. Only from Hashem.

if it didnt kill him,, it was not bad enough,,,

When someone is Chayov Meiso by Divine decree for having killed a Jew, a day or another, his time will come. By reading his remarks, he seems to have no regrets for the murder he committed 19 years ago. Without Teshuvah, you cannot escape a Divine decree.

what good is this?
September 12, 2010 7:59 pm

What good is this if he doesn’t get a fatal blow? What he did to that poor innocent man?There is no penalty good enough.

"I'm a man now"

Yup

September 12, 2010 7:47 pm

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy

It took a while
September 12, 2010 7:36 pm

But I hope the man was finally dealt justice.

may he suffer as he caused others to suffer.

Hashem rules the world – sometimes we can see it so clearly

This mamash show’s that G-D is running the show all of the time I was born on the block where the riots started I was only 6 months old and being locked in my apt for 3 days wasn’t exactly healthy for me but don’t worry it was important to let the black community or shall I say the Sharpton crew let out their rage

correction
September 12, 2010 7:33 pm

could we please refer to the incident of 1991 by its correct name?
IT WAS A POGROM
the first one in America, and they said it couldn’t happen here. by whitewashing the truth, we are allowing history to be forgotten. only jews were targeted. my goyish neighbors remained immune to the violence perpetrated upon us.
