new york (cnn) -- a muslim man jumped to the aid of three jewish subway riders after they were attacked by a group of young people who objected to one of the jews saying "happy hanukkah," a spokeswoman for the three said wednesday.. friday's altercation on the q train began when somebody yelled out "merry christmas," to which rider walter adler responded, "happy hanukkah," said toba hellerstein.. "almost immediately, you see the look in this guy's face like i've called his mother something," adler told cnn affiliate wabc.. two women who were with a group of 10 rowdy people then began to verbally assault adler's companions with anti-semitic language, hellerstein said.. one member of the group allegedly yelled, "oh, hanukkah.
that's the day that the jews killed jesus," she said.. when adler tried to intercede, a male member of the group punched him, she said.. another passenger, hassan askari -- a muslim student from bangladesh -- came to adler's aid, and the group began physically and verbally assaulting him, hellerstein said.. "a muslim-american saved us when our own people were on the train and didn't do anything," adler said.
adler pulled the emergency brake and the train stopped at dekalb avenue station, where police came on board.. the 10 suspects, ages 19 to 20, were taken into custody, said brooklyn district attorney spokesman sandy silverstein.. askari was first handcuffed alongside them, but he was released when adler told police he was not an attacker, hellerstein said.. alder was treated at long island college hospital for injuries that included a fractured nose and a cut lip that required several stitches, while askari suffered a black eye, hellerstein said.. .
You go out all week, and never find anyone at home.
Guess they're going to the wrong homes. In the area where I live there are almost always people at home. But you never see the Dubbs here. They haven't been in this area for at least 3 years. So that excuse about it being Satan's fault? Nope. The Witlesses are just being led by dumbos. Go to the right places and you'll find people home. But no, go to places where nobody is home then you don't have to preach, just yap and yao with your field-service partner and count hours.
LOL.

ps. Watch out or I will sick my demonic kitty on you.
your organization has always been intently focused on "witnessing" and this includes going right up to strangers homes, knocking on their door attempting to engage them in a discussion of their beliefs.
you come prepared to point out the error of whatever faith they hold.
doctrines such as immortality of the soul, the trinity and eternal torment in hell you declare as false teachings and can back up your assertions with scriptures and skilled argument.
How I view pets is none of their business! I am not interested in their view. There were times that they viewed cats as demonic animals.
Cats are not demonic, the WT is. So stay away from my views and keep your views to yourseves I love my pets. They give me more for my money than the WT ever did.
A Sinclair ZX81 - no colour and as far as I remember, no sound either and definately no hard drive.
Mine was a Sinclair Spectrum, but then with 48k Ram. Add 16k of ROM for the Basic and you have an address range from 0 to 65535. I bought a disc drive (one of the first in existence then) which could store 178k.
I learned BASIC and assembler on this thing. It was the first computer with a complete instruction set. In the 90's when I was sent to a bakery as a mechanic I found an assembly line which still used the Z80 processor.
