Either the parents or the kids somehow should repay

Horrible!!

What crazy kids! I don’t care who they are – they have to be taught that doing something like this is crazy! They didn’t realize what impact it would have. #1 ,I agree with you 100%.

“Etzeh Gebbers” are not very helpful here. Make the arsonists pay, let the city pay….. RIGHT NOW

Chaim is our man

There is no cause more worthy than this. Chaim always comes through for people, it’s time we do this for him. He has enough going on already, we should take care of this at least.

You can't be insured for every misfortune when on tight budget
May 11, 2016 8:06 am

A car needs what’s called “comprehensive insurance” to be covered for every misfortune. Many people can’t afford that and just by liability or by liabilty and accident insurance. This wasn’t an accident. It was a deliberate crime that I doubt owner of bus forsaw. If every community member purchased every type of insurance out there, we would have no money for tzedaka etc. v’dal. (Obviously one should still buy the major ones like home fire insurance, life insurance, health insurance etc.).

For all people saying 'insurance should pay'
May 11, 2016 7:55 am

I know the Javitzes personally. They are great people. Even with insurance, it is a difficult process, and we should help if we can!

good luck!
May 11, 2016 7:16 am

Yes he should of or could of..have insurance, bottom line,his friends are collecting money for him must be a great reason for it,so let’s try our best to help a yid in trouble!

Insurance will pay
May 11, 2016 5:18 am

If you get a good lawsuit lawyer they for sure will you can also sue the parents of the kids and get them taken from the parents who didn’t raise them right and put in foster care so they can’t collect money on them. That will send a message to the kids, their parents, and community. We need to ensure there is serious action taken against serious attacks or we are just like sheep going to gas chambers.

I'm with you 1 & 2
May 11, 2016 4:28 am

Like the first two people who sent in their comments, I also agree that the holligans who destroyed the bus should pay. It was THEIR doing so consequently it’s THEIR responsibility they should not get away with this.

LET'S ALL DONATE
May 11, 2016 2:17 am

Those kids WILL pay for it, BUT RIGHT NOW A FELLOW YID CAN USE OUR HELP.

You should sue the heck out of those kids and their parents and make sure they pay for their crime. we have some great lawyers in crown heights who hopefully can help you.

Insurance
May 10, 2016 11:54 pm

Is it not a requirement to have insurance, which covers fire or damage to his bus?

Insurance
May 10, 2016 11:43 pm

He should have comprehensive insurance
That would cover it

May 10, 2016 11:42 pm

with all due respect the kids responsible for making this fire should be responsible for all the damage and loss. Let them have a consequence. Tough luck if they cant come up with the money let them go beg for the money in there school and they will feel very ashamed. Next time they want to do something like this they will think twice before ruining someones property and parnassah. All the kids in school will also think twice about doing something like this as they will see that there will be a consequence and they will see how embarrassing… Read more »

the parents of those kids should pay
May 10, 2016 11:28 pm

They need to be taught a lesson about the importance of educating children properly
