Hey New Jersey – Let’s Keep Voting for these Guys!

Posted on by

From the Asbury Park Press Online:

NEWARK (AP) — The former chairman of the Sussex County Democratic Party was sentenced Wednesday to six months in federal prison for helping bankrupt the health fund of the labor union he had founded.

Charles W. Cart, who pleaded guilty in May to two conspiracy charges, must also serve six months under house arrest and repay $144,077 to the bankruptcy trustee for Local 16 of the United Service Workers of America in Newton.

Cart, 57, of Newton, was the fourth and final person to admit a role in victimizing the union, which represents factory workers, auto mechanics, salespersons and others.

Hey, let’s make sure that the Democrats get another sweeping victory in New Jersey the next time we have our elections, ok? There are low-income folks in this state who are so brainwashed into voting for whoever has the “D” after their name that they don’t even care about stories like this one.

But what’s the point of complaining in New Jersey? The Democrats are just going to win the next election (and the one after that) and the low-income areas of New Jersey will rejoice…

…as New Jersey politicians continue to pick their pockets.

We Go After College Students…Until Real Life Hits!

Posted on by

Any of you who have read me over at Joe’s Journal know that I have a nice, well-founded disgust of the way college kids are treated by local law enforcement. My personal experience (and the experience of most of my peers) is that of having our civil rights demolished by the Ocean Township Police Department as they walked into our house at all hours of the night “just to check.”

Imagine someone walking into your house at 2:00am when everyone was asleep…

Anyway, what gets me going is when the local papers crucify college students for all of the “bad” that they do to the communities. Focusing on Ocean Township for a moment, let me bring you three stories from a local paper in Northern Coastal Monmouth County from The Coaster.

First, we have the story of how a simple crash in a parking lot led to a major heroin arrest in Ocean Township. From the article:

After an investigation police learned that Jeffery J. Dale, 27, had thrown several bags of heroin and a hypodermic syringe into a nearby storm drain.

Police found Dale to be under the influence of drugs at the scene and he was taken into custody to the Ocean Township Police Station for processing.

Yeah…let’s make sure that our local police force is going up and down Roosevelt Avenue staring at a sorority house because there are Greek letters in their window and not keeping an eye on the creepy heroin guy over by Target. Ridiculous.

Now we go to one of the new economic development projects in Ocean Township – the Wegmans shopping complex! While the Ocean Township Police Department is directed to go and inspect those “unruly” college students miles away there’s a good old-fashioned bank robbery going on at the Bank of America in the new development!

Whew! Thank God there is extra surveillance over near the college houses and not by the bank! Those damn college students might have left their garbage out or parked too far from the curb!

And…right down the street from this place was yet another wonderful event in recent Ocean Township history: Ocean Man Charged in Robbery! How exciting?!?

But let me just say from the bottom of my heart, it’s great to know that the college student who is coming home from the bar on Saturday night has a huge calvary of police following him. Because seriously, what would happen if that bastard college student wasn’t be watched? He could be selling heroin, robbing a bank, or stealing from a gas station!

It’s Just a Little Snow!

Posted on by

It’s unbelievable to me that every fucking time it snows a little bit in this state, the entire place goes ape shit! So there was a dusting of snow on the ground this morning, so what?

I had to sit in 30 minutes of extra traffic because people wanted to go slow-to-a-stop on the Garden State Parkway this morning. Thanks, jerks. And is if that’s not bad enough, our state is so concerned about making sure they get the same budget (or bigger) next year that they got this year that they had salt trucks out all day today – even when the roads were bone dry on the Parkway!

None of this would matter to me except for the fact that I had the great pleasure of getting caught about 5 feet behind one of these monsters this afternoon. And these things don’t just spray salt and dirt all over the place, they take up 2 lanes and are a bitch to get around.

So people – stop going fucking bonkers when it snows out. It’s just snow!

The Law Prevails in NJ! Sopranos to Shoot in Bloomfield

Posted on by

Unbelievably, it looks like the law will be followed in Bloomfield, New Jersey.

Township Administrator Louise Palagano explained that as long as Sopranos Production Inc. meets the requirements in Bloomfield’s code for filming crews, the township has no authority to deny the permit.

Holy shit!? You mean someone actually sat down and read Bloomfield’s code? And then followed that code!?? Incredible!

For those of you not from New Jersey, we have a major problem with little fiefdoms in this ridiculously liberal state. Everyone feels like no one should be offended no matter how stupid the charge. To that end, everyone also feels like if they don’t get their way, they can manipulate the local town council to overturn common sense law (like meeting requirements) in order to get what they want.

I’m not sure if that happened in this particular case, but chances are when you hear about a problem or an issue in New Jersey – liberal local activists are the root of that problem and the root of their activism is making sure that everyone is not offended.

Sometimes this state is like a South Park episode.

Sopranos Final Episode Shot Down in Bloomfield

Posted on by

If you haven’t heard by now, the Bloomfield Town Council is rejecting permits allowing The Sopranos to film the final scene of the series in a local ice cream parlor. The genius Mayor of the town had this to say:

The mayor, whose wife is Italian, said: “I don’t think ‘The Sopranos’ depicts the life of a typical Italian-American in a positive way and I still don’t like the way people see New Jersey based upon ‘The Sopranos’ series.”

He added that he plans to oppose filming again on Monday. “What the rest of the council does, that’s their choice. I stand by my convictions.”

How completely ridiculous? Where in the Councilman job description does it say, “If you disagree with a television show’s portrayal of a certain ethnic group, you have the ability to deny this group their right to film in your town, even though they meet all necessary regulations.”

In a country where the Klu Klux Klan is still allowed to march and where Nazis and Communists are allowed to run for public office, are we really at a point where we need to start going after television shows? I mean come on, idiots!

And the really sad part about this situation is that the ice cream parlor, Holsten’s Brookdale Confectionary, and its owners are the ones being hurt the most from this arrogant Mayor and his “personal convictions.” Quite frankly, I don’t see why in our lawsuit-happy state, these folks wouldn’t file every lawsuit in the book against the Mayor. By virtue of this parlor being the location of the final scene of the show, their sales would go through the roof just as they would become a statewide legend.

The amount of lost profits that the store would be suffering through is monumental!

And all of this because the Mayor of the town doesn’t like the show?

Come on…this state’s local politicians CAN’T be that stupid!
