Orthodox Jews used bolt cutters Monday to cut through gates that had been welded shut by New York City authorities earlier in the day to prevent children in Jewish neighborhoods from playing, ostensibly because of fears of coronavirus.
Mayor Bill de Blasio has continued cracking down on religious observance, and on religious Jews in particular — while supporting large, crowded Black Lives Matter and transgender demonstrations in the city over the past several weeks.
The community has been eager to use the parks again, but the city has removed children from them. As Breitbart News reported earlier Monday, the city actually welded shut the gates to prevent families from gaining access to the parks.

YES! YES! This is what real civil disobedience looks like.
Sometimes a law is so stupid and so obviously unjust, that it deserves to be stepped over and ignored as slight bump in the road.
He’s an Anti-Semite
Do they think Jews can’t operate welding equipment as well?
Orthodox power!
Orthodox power!
Good for them! Should rename the tyrant: DeNazio.
That's gonna leave a mark.
So, when de Blasio comes with an armed contingent to enforce his lockdown, then what?
For this, he may call the National Guard.
We must steadfastly stand by Patriots like these, and be ready to support them financially if and when they need legal help just as the Hollywood left does ...
EFF YEAH!!!! I SAID THEY HAD TO DO THIS. THEY HAD TO DO THIS. THIS NONSENSE CANNOT STAND. Welding shut the gate to a children’s park, these people really are the Red Chinese.
YAY YAY YAY to the MEN who did this.
Sorry, but I have had it, totally.
I wouldn’t trust DeBlasio not to swing the truncheon himself at anyone he could reach. The man’s an antisemite.
Then may G-d kill deBlasio.
Then they find themselves absolutely surrounded by a seething mass of black and white. Just go to Williamsburg and yell, "Chapsam!" You will see black and white figures emerge from everywhere.
Looters, rioters, things could get bad!
Good for them!
But...none of those people opening the locks are wearing masks. They’re not social distancing either.
Herr Wilhelm would round them up and throw them in the ovens if he thought he could get away with it

What does chapsam mean?
