Hysterical 🤣. Love the humor at the end
kol hakavod!!!
A civil disagreement between two Americans in 2020! This should go down in the record books!!
and as a proud Jew, I think that a lot of the reasons this Rabbi was able to keep it civil was bc he wasn’t arguing based off of his feelings, he brought in sources from the Torah that we need to kill animals in the least painful way
How beautiful!
A Kiddush Hashem without compromise!

Respectful conversation. Appreciation of their values. Clarification about Jewish values on animal cruelty. Just awesome!
Ask these animal rights people if they eat bread or fruit.
How dare them eat an apple that is torn of the tree.
Just because one cannot hear the apples cry doesn’t mean it’s not painful for the fruit
That’s not what they were discussing actually, as he said right at the beginning. They were discussing tzar baalei chaim.
Many animals (not just bugs) have to be killed in order to keep them from eating produce that ends up on grocery shelves…it is their food after all
