“From time to time I come across this blog. I find it so interesting that people who live in places like Ridgewood and Greenwich claim to speak on behalf of folks who live a world away – not in miles but in practicality. I applaud the person here who suggested reading. These are complex issues and require one to really understand history and data to come to any reasonable conclusion. I also agree that the education system is broken. In short, the liberalism has created a distorted view and poisoned the well of young minds. It pushes a singular view point instead of encouraging students to seek out knowledge from different sources. I find it interesting that folks on the Democratic side either do not know, or forget, the party’s own history. This is the party that created “Jim Crow”. It is the party of segregation. It is the party of Fascism. Read the history folks. These are simple facts. The Nuremburg laws where created in the late 1930’s, not out of thin air, but modelled after the segregationist laws of the US deep south. FDR was a huge fan of Moussolini – and the list goes on.”

“liberation
[ˌlibəˈrāSH(ə)n]
NOUN
the act of setting someone free from imprisonment, slavery, or oppression.

Are there imprisoned, enslaved or oppressed people in Ridgewood at the present time? It would help those belonging to the Ridgewood For Black Liberation movement to figure out just why it is they are disrupting the peace in the Village of Ridgewood before the local citizens decide they, too, have rights. Among these are “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” which doesn’t include continual disruption of daily life by people obsessed with being in the spotlight.”

Ridgewood NJ, Ridgewood saw witness to another “Black Lives Matter” protest on Saturday . Demonstrators  were attempting  to show solidarity with those demonstrating in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Ridgewood protests so far have been high on drama but low on substance.

The groups Ridgewood for Black Liberation, Brother’s United Bike Club and other community allies gathered at Van Neste Square Memorial Park to protest the shooting of Jacob Blake, 29, who was shot multiple times by a police officer in the Wisconsin town 40 miles south of Milwaukee. The group also marched to protest other instances of what they claim is police brutality.

“The town is going to have to pass a law limiting how many “marches” one group is allowed in a year–6 months–even a month. Ridgewood limits garage sales and requires permits but these groups–who obviously don’t work, volunteer, do anything but waste Police and others time by planning things a number of times a week. We, as a community don’t have to put up with that. Why aren’t they forced to get permits? A march blocking traffic should be forced to get a permit or be kicked off the streets and charged a fee. It’s obvious from all the pictures that they proudly post that they are blocking both streets and sidewalks while they hold aloft incomprehensible signs. (burning crosses connect to what?) They have gotten by with so much trouble making that they think they walk on air and can never be challenged. Why Not? Why are they being allowed to continue this?”

A Reader asks , “Anyone ask Ridgewood BLM if they concur with BLM in Chicago , and when we can expect the looting?”

Ridgewood NJ, Members of Black Lives Matter Chicago held a rally on Monday night in support of more than 100 people arrested following widespread looting and rioting in the city the night prior.Speaking at the rally outside a police station in the South Loop where organizers said the suspected looters are in custody, organizer Ariel Atkins excused the looting — which reportedly caused at least $60 million in property damage and left 13 police officers injured — calling the theft “reparations,” NBC Chicago reported.

A reader asks “Black Lives Matters just came out in support of the riots and looting in Chicago this weekend. They said looting is a form of reparations. Anyone ask Ridgewood BLM if they concur, and when we can expect the looting?”

Reader asks , “how many young people in town are being “recruited” by NJ Democratic Socialists of America”

“In reading the tag lines for this article I noticed “Ridgewood For Black Liberation” which prompted me to visit their Facebook page. There I saw a video of the entire protest march and a still photo with a comment, “Thank you comrades for your support”. “Soladarity forever”. This posting came from The Central NJ Democratic Socialists of America, so it begs the question just how many Ridgewood residents are involved in these protest marches, and how many young people in town are being “recruited” by the DSA to carry forth their agenda. If this is an ongoing thing, today Ridgewood, tomorrow the rest of Bergen County.”

Reader calls protesters “Sheep”

“Don’t underestimate the threat of these white kids from Ridgewood pose. Are they true Marxists? Most of them, probably not. Are the capable of violence? Most of them, probably not. They are not wolves, they are sheep, and that’s the threat. They will offer themselves, family, friends and neighbors for slaughter.”

“To the people in that photo: HAVE EACH OF YOU PERSONALLY PAID SIGNIFICANT MONETARY REPARATIONS?

If not, then put the sign down and stop protesting! You’re a hypocrite!

My counter-protesting sign would read: “Anyone demanding reparations must first pay reparations him/herself”.

My other sign reads: “If you live in a glass house, it’s unwise to throw stones!

#GlassHouseNoStones”

“It is their goal to overwhelm the police and the community with tiring endless protests to wear them down and make them lose patience. Once someone gets a little mistreated by a nervous police staff or a frustrated town resident all hell about defunding the police will break lose. I wouldn’t be surprised if the sick minds behind these gatherings would like to turn us into Portland. Anything can be expected from these psychos. In the process crime benefits.
Is there a rule about how many protests someone can organize within a period of time? What happens if they ask for a protest every day? Do they need a permit to organize meetings and marches?”

“I still chuckle at white kids from Ridgewood with a sign that says “Pay Reparations”.

OK, if the protesters want reparations paid, they can hit up mommy and daddy for a few hundred thousand and that should solve the problem.

What’s that you say? “Oh, no, we don’t want to *personally* pay the reparations”. We prefer to have the reparations paid by the non-protesting Ridgewood citizens.”

“These kids are an embarrassment to themselves, our town and their parents.

So tired of these whiney teenage brats. Relatives of mine in Israel have always told me that terrible leftist politics and values as well and the lack of compulsory military service would lead to the inevitable rot and deterioration of American youths. Alas, they have a point.”
