“I think he quoted R� Yaakov that it was proper no to wear the talis openly.”
“It�s a ??? ????? in ??� ?�?, also brought in ???? ?????.”

True, but Rav Yaakov was speaking in terms of wearing it in America, as some claimed the the reason given by the MB/MA is not relevant nowadays.

(However, that may depend as well in the neighborhood, and is also possible nowadays is diff from Rav Yaakov as well. In a generation that people out there wear everything and anything – everything goes! So why is a talis different than a one wearing purple hair and a nose ring etc, in terms of arousing any antisemitism..)
