The Entire Dollar was Soaked in my Blood Except for the Rebbe's Photo

Curtis Sliwa and his unarmed neighborhood safety patrol, The Guardian Angels went into Crown Heights in 1991 during the riots and stayed there for 3 months, in gratitude, The Lubavitcher Rebbe gave Curtis two Dollars for charity.

obviously, a "grain of salt" must be taken, as regards to the day. He says it was shabbos, hence no mic., Then goes on to say about receiving dollars.

It may have been 2 separate times, or it was a weekday after all.

A very nice observation from an outsider, indeed.

obviously, a "grain of salt" must be taken, re the date. He claims it was shabbos, hence no mic., then goes on to say he received dollars.

Either it was 2 separate times, or it just wasn't Shabbos altogether.
