Yesterday I posted about how it may seem that there is finally some equal treatment for the “summer tenants” in the Monmouth University area and those of us who had to suffer through the brutality of the local police as undergraduates. Well, it looks like the story continues…

The Asbury Park Press posted a story today about how the West Long Branch police (and it would seem that every other police force in the area) are trading barbs with the partygoers about the brutality that the police used in breaking up this engagement party. This story has a “best” part and a “worst” part.

The best part is that for those of us who have been here and been through this before, we know that the “summer tenants” do nothing but cry about antisemitism, which is a ton of horseshit. That may work in other little corner and big swaths of the world, but here in our little corner – we don’t play like that. We don’t say something negative about your religion if you’re doing something arrogant or ignorant. Those aren’t religious traits so why bring up religion?

And as far as the partygoers claiming that a police officer said, “Hold back the Jews,” I don’t believe it. One, the police officer was Jewish. Two, again – whether or not the partygoers are Jewish or not doesn’t matter. And quite frankly, that’s not the story here…

Now, the “bad” part about this story is that this is all old news for those of us who had to suffer through the Monmouth University off-campus undergraduate experience. We read this story and say, “Why didn’t they cover it when we fought against local police brutality?” We wrote editorials, pressed charges, had direct meeting with local police chiefs, etc, but no one covered it. If these summer tenants think that police brutality, overuse of force, trampling of simple Constitutional rights, or being caught in a Monmouth County system that goes by the creed of “guilty until proven innocent” is something new or something unexpected – then they really don’t know anything about this area!

But there will be more about all of this in the coming days. I’m about to get really pissed off because Monmouth University is back in session as of today…and that means that the entire focus of the local police forces is about to change to how to hold back those “evil college students.”

Last night there was an altercation between some partygoers and some police officers at a party on Monmouth Road in West Long Branch. Monmouth Road is where the fraternity house was located when I lived in it for two years and had my civil rights trashed and demolished by the overzealous, fascist folks in Ocean Township…but before I digress…

Apparently there were some 300 people partying at this place on Monmouth Road and the police came into the place and headed straight for the DJ. The twist on the story?

The party was an engagement party thrown by two “summer tenant” parents for their daughter and her fiance. The DJ that was reportedly taken to the hospital was their eighteen year old son…who has two police officers standing by his bedside so that when he’s able, he can be arrested.

What happened last night that caused all of this? It’s unclear. What do I care about it for?

Because this family was doing something quite normal – having a gathering to celebrate an occasion. But the catch is that you’re not allowed to do normal things in this area – they arrest you for doing normal things in this area.

Take a read of the story yourself. I guarantee if you’re a Monmouth University alumnus, you’ll get pissed off because 1) there was no reason for the police to come down on this engagement party like they did and 2) you KNOW that they thought they had the first “college party” under their belts simply by virtue of the force that they used to quell the partygoers.

And if those two things don’t piss you off, then you’ll probably be pissed about the fact that the “summer tenants” usually buy their way out of these messes…and the local police let them so that they don’t have to deal with them and can focus their time on the college students.

As if the last post wasn’t bad enough, I just browsed over to The Coaster’s website and found some lovely information about Ocean Township.

First was the lovely police blotter. A quick rundown of what you can find in Ocean Township: tons of marijuana, people who break planters outside of locally owned businesses, purse snatchers, and robberies at the local gas station. I wonder how this will be the fault of college students…

Next was a separate story detailing MORE burglaries! Ugh! Come on already!

What the hell is it going to take for this stupid township to STOP their completely disgusting sole focus off of college renters and on to the rest of this township? The place is falling apart!

The Asbury Park Press reports that an Ocean Township man had a 429-count indictment charged against him for aggravated sexual assault against children. What a completely, utterly disgusting human being. What a pile of shit.

Who the fuck goes out of their way to videotape and hurt little children? This guy ought to be “dropped” into a woodchipper. Absolutely disgusting.

And you know what really makes me fucking sick? There’s a STRONG chance that those idiots in Ocean Township could have caught this slimy fuckface earlier if they spent less time destroying the civil rights of local college students. Hey listen, it’s obvious from reading my blog that I jab at the Ocean Township Police and the Ocean Township residents every chance I get because the truth is – they think that the worst thing in their town are these college students that come in for 9 months out of the year.

But a story like this shows you how blind these people are to reality. This fucking swine has a FOUR HUNDRED AND TWENTY NINE count indictment for hurting little kids! Good Lord! Is it really so fucking important to make a measly $100 on a bogus noise complaint against a college student when you’ve got this asshole in your town?

Ocean Township needs to wake up – NOW.

What a great job the police have done in the “Operation Painkiller” up in Morris County! I say this not because it’s where my family lives, but because I can’t stand drugs and the grip that they take over a person. So many of the people that I was close with in high school and growing up in general have had drugs ruin their lives.

Nothing gets me more aggravated than one or two people who manage to build a moderately successful life and still smoke weed everyday. They think that their meager successes equate into similar success for every person who does what they do. False.

There are far more folks who do, in fact, see weed as a gateway drug and then go higher and higher up the drug ladder until they reach ultimate ruin. Unfortunately, I would say there are more case studies of this in Roxbury Township, NJ than any where else on this planet. Groups of guys start doing drugs together because they feel it makes them “cool” – then ten years later, they’re still doing it together (except for maybe one or two of them) and still thinking that they’re cool.

Pathetic indeed.

A huge congratulations goes out to the folks up in Morris County who enforce our needed drug laws. Great job!
