If he's from Jersey City he is from New York.....people from Jersey do not accept Jersey City as a part of our culture. What's he, a Jesuit? Probably Irish on top. So you not only have to feed him but have to get him good whiskey as well. I only deal with Benedictines, I'm a Newark guy. Speaking of which, this ridiculous stuff these kids get off on copycat school stuff. You never see that in a town like Newark, as the kids are just too rugged. It's a shame it's spread to the suburbs. But what is it, the suburban community is trying to act out everyday life in Newark or some other large city? What is wrong with the people in Middle America these days? The Inner Cities have problems and there is gunplay now and again. That won't get 2 seconds on CNN. So the areas of the country we all strive to go to to get away from towns like Newark get hours of coverage because a couple of miscreants destroy everything their parents worked for as well as the credibility of the American Dream simply because they probably watched too much television. Arrgh. It's ridiculous. My brother moved to Chicago years ago to get away from Jersey and 4 or 5 of the people he tried to do business with early on ended up in Mob hits. They were profiled in a movie about Jimmy Hoffa. The first thought that went through his mind was "Glad I moved my kid here from Jersey?" Ya know, the 1950s were better because no one knew what atrocity was being perpetuated over there so it would be copied over in the other place. Now it's "ya shoot 'em over here, so we have to shoot 'em over there.....you blow up a building in New York so we havta in Oklahoma...." You know I don't imply that I have a solution for this but what moron does not have a clue that his children have access to weapons and does nothing about it, particularly if he has the slightest clue that they might be deranged? Ah, sorry....I was doing work at the bar and all the TV kept blaring was this stuff for several hours....what a zoo that must be for those kids.
