Ridgewood NJ, Protests across the U.S. including Ridgewood over the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police could be a “seeding event” for more coronavirus outbreaks, CDC Director Robert Redfield warned lawmakers in June.

“The first respondent asked why “all of Ridgewood” wasn’t invited, and the answer is really simple. These “teens” as they call themselves with their meeting “for teens, run by teens” invitation first of all, aren’t teens, and they are not looking for the betterment of society but rather, how many institutions can they attack and destroy. Their crowd of “know it all young adults” who consider themselves teens so they can hope to not be responsible for their actions. They hope to be getting more bleeding hearts who say “How could those big mean cops pick on a Latino teenager? They are obviously racists.” “or pick on an innocent teen (?) girl” who “just happened” to come with own photographer, recorder, and lawyer on July 4th? These brats assume they have the right to destroy society so they can have fun and get people to support them. Parents, please talk logic to your kids and hopefully get them to not participate in these mobs. Someone is going to get hurt.”

Reader says ,Jewish residents, “should be more concerned with the Democratic party’s anti-semitic position”

“The Jewish residents of NJ have good cause to be unsettled regarding BLM, and the rampant anti-semitism they believe in.

However, they should be more concerned with the Democratic party’s anti-semitic position. There has never been so much as a “no” spoken by Democrats against attacks being made against Jews. Anyone remember the Hanukkah celebration a few months ago? Shaheen; Cortez; De Blasio; Omar; Warren; Biden and yes, Obama and his cohort of Rev. Wright, Sharpton et al, they are all as guilty as sin of failing to condemn, and in fact outright support of such attacks.

The evil grew the same way in 1933 – Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. Oust the Dems! “

“Parents need to spend more time teaching their kids about what’s right and wrong. And how to research, critically analyze and engage the world. These skills should be taught to teens and it’s not up to a school or university to teach them.

We’ve seen time and time again that public and private education systems are profit-driven. Even worse, the fees they charge students and their parents aren’t channeled to improve the quality of education. Rather schools treat their students as captives, while selling them in a secondary market to Pharma, political organizations, and corporate advertisers.

It’s not difficult to research BLM. Sit down with your kids, go on BLM website and listen to their leaders speak. Have your kids write down key positions and statements. Then have your kids read communist manifesto. Then have them read from survivors about socialist revolutions in USSR, Cuba and Venezuela. Put 2&2 together.

Congrats, you’ve bonded with your kids, taught them useful skills, and set them on a path that avoids hustlers.”

Tips for Deprogramming Indoctrinated Teens

If you are close to a young person caught in the grips of a dangerous ideology, you may feel a moral responsibility to show that young person a way out.  Here are some tips based on experience teaching young adults and research into the subject.

First, resist the temptation to reason.  It is not an inability to reason that leads people to these positions.  They are motivated instead by deep, often latent psychological drives, such as the desire to belong or be part of what has been portrayed as an important crusade.

Democratic National Convention Faces Security Issues

Milwaukee WI, looks like the DNC will have to contend with “police defunding” it self ,over 100 police agencies are withdrawing from agreements to send personnel to bolster security at next month’s Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee, in part because they’re concerned about a recent directive ordering police in the city to stop using tear gas to control crowds.

A citizen oversight commission last week directed Milwaukee’s police chief to publicly account for why the department used tear gas during protests in late May and early June after the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis and to change Milwaukee’s police policies to ban the use of tear gas and pepper spray. The Milwaukee Fire and Police Commission said in its order that Police Chief Alfonso Morales could be fired if he fails to comply.

“We live among-st idiots in this town. Why are people so stupid to publicly criticize the police on social media?? Don’t they realize that the police are reading their comments and remembering their names. Remember, the police have the means to find out everything about you. Where you live. What you drive. I have many friends who are cops. The one thing they remember are those who complain or even press charges against them. Some have gone so far as pulling over the complainers and giving them tickets for crossing the center line in the street or even tires touching the parking lines. A few have even waited outside a bar or restaurant to pull he/she over for DUI. Is it worth all the money you will spend, and your reputation for defending a kid who obviously has no respect for authority. The police are a tight brotherhood that stick together. These are the men and women we call when something goes wrong. Why would you jeopardize your safety and well being by complaining about something that you weren’t even involved in. Mind your business. It’s that simple. I commend the Ridgewood police department for keeping our streets safe. For the agitators out there remember, “revenge is a dish served cold.”

“Ridgewood is a nice bubble for a BLM protest. They got their arrest and a “cause” to harp on. Now they wait with cell phones to “document “ bad behavior. They are all over the cyclist arrest because it was just toddlers on bikes.

Some local political activists have invested a lot of their credibility in the Ridgewood Black Liberation Movement. Contacting the press and seeking attention. It is Slacktivism at its best. Demonstrate in a nice park after latte at a local coffee company. Stay in your $1m plus home and pretend to be saving the world. Decry White Privilege while being the very embodiment.”
