“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.”
“I passed by Broad St last night. The garage is HUGE. This garage reminds me of the monsters they have built in Yonkers and other areas in Westchester County. Even half the size would have been more than sufficient. The apartment complex is more than huge. Ugly sh!t all around. And it is just a start. They should rename Broad St to Broad Ave.
This downtown is not my downtown anymore. I will stay out of it.”

“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”

Police are authorized to protect citizens and make sure people don’t break the law.
However, we have witnessed cases where the police have used too much force while carrying out these duties.
With George Floyd’s case still fresh in our minds, we can’t help but feel vulnerable in the face of such brutality and excessive force.
We, in New Jersey, have not been spared and cases such as the one in Ridgewood, where a boy accused of obstructing traffic was arrested in a manner that felt excessively forceful.

Ridgewood NJ, according to the Village Manager Heather A. Mailander , there are several ways to have your storm debris disposed of, which are as follows:
*Put out storm debris with your regular yard waste pickup.
We all want a better life for us and our family. However, most life upgrades cost money, and you can’t always just pull out a couple hundred thousand dollars to get something you need. This is where a mortgage comes in. A mortgage is a special type of loan that you can take out to buy a piece of property, and you pay it back in installments over the years. The catch? If you fail to make a payment, the mortgage company can repossess your property and sell it to get their money back. So, mortgages are definitely an option for some, but there are a couple of things you need to be aware of before applying for one. Before we start, it’s also important to understand other types of mortgages, like a reverse mortgage in Nevada, or in any other state.

“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.”
