The Great Reasons Lag baOmer Bonfire Will Never Be Postponed

in response to having been asked if he considered delaying the lighting of the Lag BaOmer bonfire... the Boyaner Rebbe is reported to having said, "We are not postponing it, just like we do not postpone Hanukkah and Purim."
The Boyaner Rebbe knows a lot more than me, but last time I checked, the date of Purim is regularly changed..  The mishna and Gemara discuss a list of dates Purim can be celebrated on, depending on the day of the week the 14th of Adar lands on..
But that's not as cute or witty a response as the response of other "sources", who said "Lag BaOmer is not Yom Haaztmaut that you can push it off to whenever you want.."

My purpose is not to be outraged at chilul shabbos. There is plenty of chilul shabbos, both public and private, going on in the State of Israel at any given time, and I rarely express shock or outrage at it. I generally am of the believers of live and let live, there is not much we can do about it, we cannot force others to do what we want, etc.
The chilul shabbos caused by Lag Baomer bonfires is probably minimal compared to that of opening a parking lot in Jerusalem or a new theater and entertainment center in Jerusalem, or allowing markets to be opened on Shabbos in Tel Aviv.
The difference is that this is being done by people who supposedly care about Shabbos. This is being done by people who do call out others for their chilul shabbos. This is being done by people who normally fight against other people who put their own enjoyment and pleasure before the importance of Shabbos observance.
It is hypocrisy I call out.
