Old Bridge NJ,  Mark Razzoli, candidate for Congress in New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District released the following statement after calls for statues of Jesus to be torn down:

“Where has our country gone? Statues toppled, parts of cities destroyed or taken over. The mob mentality of those who are shaming us for loving our country and guilting us into silence have but one agenda – destroy democracy and capitalism. What started as a call for equality and to hold rogue police officers accountable has become something very different – anarchy. The goal – usher in a socialist society and destroy America.  Whether you’re a Democrat or Republican, WE have always cherished our freedom and come together thru love of country. Destroying monuments and now calls to destroy statues of Jesus are not based on fighting for black people to achieve equality. It’s based on destroying the fabric of our country. We cannot remain silent. Whether you are Black or White. Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu or any other religion – we all lose if socialism grow
