You are right! There’s no such thing as “former” Jew!

No matter where you may roam you can always come back home!

HOW LONG?

ITS NOT LONG ENOUGH. THE PSYCHOLOGISTS HAVE TO RE-EVALUATE HIM TO SEE WHERE HE’S AT WHEN THEY WANT TO MAKE PAROLE. HE IS NOT STABLE, it sounds like its not long enough.

He’s still Jewish, not a former Jew. This is the reality. He can still do tshuva

BS”D There is no need for Rachmonis on a person of his ilk
Sentence seems extremely light. And Rubashkin gets 27 years-makes sense

Chabad Mosds are well equipped!!

Now Aleph will quick in and give the person some help!

Jail time may do the trick

Perhaps with all the extra time he’ll have he’ll begin to realize his mistake and do teshuva bez”h

COLLive, thanks for the article.
By the way Mr. Cohen is not an ‘extremest’ for this might be a ‘zealot.’ This could be wholesome, like ‘Pinchus.’ Mr. Cohen is a ‘fanatic.’

this is called external impact of whatever caused him to become like this.. revenge its not real though but its dangerous and thats why he needs to be locked up until he shapes up

Visit him in prison. Show him the light of Chasidus.

The Walls of 770 would trip this fool up…700 is so holy that no
force of evil could ever harm it

Not sure how legit he is

This whole Joseph Cohen story is a scary one and one that is a real wake up call. Im just not sure of his story though. things dont add up.
