Democrats flip out, go full-retard, and try instituting Third Reich policies in New Jersey

Little bits of PVC pipes on poles are causing fear and panic on the left.

********

Thin strips of PVC piping on utility poles around a New Jersey town have stirred worries that an Orthodox Jewish community just across the New York border plans to expand, and backlash from those who say the opposition raises worries about anti-Semitism.

While arguing over the expansion of Monsey, New York’s “eruv,” a ritual boundary that allows Orthodox Jews to carry items and perform some activities during the Sabbath, the town of Mahwah is also reconsidering a new law limiting its parks and playgrounds to New Jersey residents.

The law came after residents complained of families with New York license plates using a park near the border, but the county’s prosecutor ordered the police not to enforce it after Mahwah’s police chief raised concerns that people reporting violations were targeting Jews.

“What’s your real target and agenda here?” said Rabbi Moses Witriol, a frequent liaison between Mahwah’s police force and the Hasidic Jewish community, who questioned the motives of the councilmembers who backed the measure. “It’s a park for kids to play. Are we going to differentiate between which kids can play?”


More than 200 people gathered to support the eruv removal last month. An eruv marking was also vandalized last week, and some have targeted the Jewish community with vitriolic posts in an online petition.

The eruvs are set up in communities...including one made of fishing line that stretches along utility poles for 18 miles around New York City. Some have led to disputes, including a six-year legal fight in Tenafly, New Jersey, which was forced to pay a Jewish group more than $300,000 in legal fees and allow them to keep their eruv up.

“No matter where they are from, or who they are, it is unsafe to occupy a playground ... in large, uncontrollable numbers,” said Kate Nunez [where have we heard this before?]
