NJ.com Removes Comment section From Site

The NJ.com website has removed the ability to comment on their news stories and articles. As of this morning all previous comments have been removed. "We understand this will be upsetting to some of the people who read and post comments, but our editors will continue working to find the best ways to engage and hear your voice, an article said.
 Critics charge it is an attempt to shut free speech where most of those commenting were from the right and is an attempt to silence those who speak the truth. Others said as NJ braces for congressional  elections there are some toss up districts and the media is attempting to keep it by the democrats by silencing those on the right.

 The website posted that only about 2% of NJ.com’s total audience reads our comments and only 0.03% posts comments. At their best, the NJ.com comments were a place to learn more about a story, add or correct information that we missed and engage in a meaningful, respectful debate. At their worst, our comments were a place none of us would want to spend time. They were a place for racism, misogyny and hatred — a place to perpetuate the worst stereotypes about our state, our
neighborhoods and our people. It was never our intent, but we ultimately gave a small number of people a license to say things they would never say in their workplace or at their dinner table without the cloak of anonymity. Read more HERE

Lakewood Taxpayers to Vote on Referendum to Approve Loan for Public School building

At the BOE meeting last night in Lakewood district officials announced plans to build a permanent structure for the pre school either at the Oak street school or Clifton Avenue school. There are currently 500 students in the pre school  and schools are at a capacity with 6200 students and growing. The board will have to borrow money to build since there is nothing in the budget to pay for it.

Pre School in NJ are not mandated, districts do not have to provide it neither is it mandatory for children to attend but many districts offer it sponsored by the state through the pre School grant.

A Referendum will be placed on the ballot this November  during the general elections asking taxpayers  to approve or disapprove on  the loan. The amount is not currently known but the process has started and by August there should be a notice of the costs.

 A member of the public asked why the district could not have used the Princeton avenue building for the public school. The attorney said that the requirements did not allow the building to be used for public school classrooms and the district sold the building at the time when they were in a deficit.

The board also had a presentation updating what it will do in case of the coronavirus coming.

On January 9, 2020, the highest grade of the the Cheder of Jersey City wrote a letter to President Trump, thanking him for his words of comfort that he sent following the attack on the grocery store located in the nearby building, and for the flag he sent them following the tragic incident. The class wished President Trump success in leading the country, and wished him luck for the next four years.

President Trump responded with a letter addressed to Rabbi Lazier Breuer, the principal of the Cheder, expressing his feelings when hearing firsthand about the abhorrent anti-Semitic act, and pledging to work to stamp out such hateful intolerance everywhere in America. He complimented the community on its resilience and how they came together with bonds of faith and family to rebuild the neighborhood and their lives.

A video of Harav Shmuel Kamentsky shlita  on voting in the general Israeli elections taking place tomorrow, was used in a misleading way on social media and other platforms,  as a "bombshell" that the Rosh Yeshiva was referencing to the WZO elections.
 Matzav.com reports "The video and conversation were not referring to any other vote or issue as has mistakenly been alleged by some".
Regarding the WZO  Matzav posted  that, Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky wrote a detailed  letter to Rav Chaim Kanievsky shlita regarding the question of voting in the WZO election."Rav Shmuel raised some of the issues that have been brought to the fore regarding this matter.
Rav Chaim responded  to Rav Shmuel, in writing, “Nechonim hadevorim. Kedai meod lehatzbia.” (What you wrote is correct. It is definitely worthy to vote.
The letter has not been made public.
