Sadly this story will serve as a case study for the JC hooligans showing how to rob drunk targets late night in DTJC...

You seem to have more of a problem with the victim the the attackers. I bet you're a great neighbor always keeping it real. Moron

Post it under "OMG Yvonne is going to lose her s***"

Which is what you should be doing in a restroom anyway.

Except Mao did not say it was posted at a restroom... it was posted at city locker rooms? Gender Expression? This sounds like trouble.

I don't think you're right at all. Grab your news from more than a single source, or read the twitter links at the bottom of your source. Having some knowledge of comic books also helps, but if racism is your thing then I doubt you'll see reason. This Ms. Marvel has entered the New York Times Graphic Novel/Short Story best-seller list at #4 or better with every trade paperback release.

The new Ms. Marvel series is pretty great. What is killing Marvel's sales is a rush of new "event" storylines -- Crossover or event storylines used to happen once every couple of years, but in the last few years Marvel has had one "event" after another. These events crossover a handful of comics into a joined storyline - in the beginning it was novelty, but more recently it's a way to sell more comics. They take a single main story arc and cross it over into 4 or more core character's stories. In order to see what happens with the single character you care about you now have to read 4 other books. At $5 an issue the costs really add up. If you want to read everything about Ms. Marvel outside of just the core published 12 issues, you'd have to buy close to 100 other comics just to see what she's been up to (Secret Wars, Civil War II, Inhumans, The All-New Avengers, Amazing Spider-Man, S.H.I.E.L.D...the list really goes on).

Long story short, don't use your racism to cover up shitty sales tactics - fans have no issue with the multicultural aspect of the new Marvel characters, they have issues having to buy a thousand issues at $5 a pop to keep up with the disaster that is Marvel's multiverse and never-ending cross-over events. The stories have never been better, but they are all over the place. However, if you're going to be racist go pick up a copy of Captain America: Steve Rogers as Captain America is now a Nazi, you may find things to your liking there.

Predictably, this "Ms. Muslim" character was a major flop.

Sales have plummeted, and Marvel regrets caving into the liberals and sullying their brand with this diversity garbage.

$200,000 collected plus $30,000 of his own money in 2008. No one ever heard of his wife but wacko Neo-Con websites looked up every snippet of info on her including what videos she "liked" on Youtube. Stop being a hysterical Grandma.

The "judge" is a biased political hack who has no business being on the bench.

Like Monroe said, let's see what happens when these activist decisions get reviewed by a real court.

You two know nothing.

Right. The guy who sells ties made in China? Nothing crazy about that at all.

And no, taking away these visas will not save the coal miners and bring back factories. These are predominantly for tech jobs. On principle I think the visa program needs to be scaled back as there are signs of abuse but there is no putting it back in the bottle. Too much money is being made by the people who pay large sums of campaign donations. So the bottom line is, the Trump voter gets virtually nothing out of this except maybe piss off a few Wall Street folks.

Also, if Trump wants us to 'buy American' maybe he should tell his voters to stop frequenting Walmart? That should go over really well.

New details in shooting that killed teen, injured 10-year-old on Easter

"Police sources told The Jersey Journal a woman who in lives in the area helped apprehend at least one of the suspects.

A local neighborhood watch group said the woman saw one of the suspects cutting through her property while fleeing police. She went outside and with help from her husband tackled one of the suspects until police handcuffed him.

One of the neighborhood watch members, who asked not to be identified, said he hopes the work watch groups do can encourage others to work together to help curb crime.

"At the end of the day it proves if you do it the right way, you can get results," he said."

Guess that's limited to passing meaningless gestures, like mandating that every city building have gender neutral bathrooms. Making substantive contributions towards his ostensible cause, like saving this school because it would tremendously benefit underprivileged youth (or even trying to drum up fundraising support), is apparently too much to ask.

And how do you propose the city government go about saving a private religious institution? I see your posts. Many seem to be of the right of center, market rules variety. Now you want the government involved?

I've take to reading between the lines whenever I see an article, or comment from the JC Spokesperson, like this. "'uncooperative' with police", "feud between acquaintances". Sad, but you read enough of these and it's hard not to believe the subtext or hidden meaning you read in is actually there.

I'm thinking about this because I live in the Heights, and the shooting occurred literally 2 blocks from my apartment! Would someone else be concerned? Possibly new arrivals to the neighborhood would - but with my internal "Rosetta Stone", I have a picture of the people involved and somehow know they are the type I avoid, whose stores I stay out of, whose blocks I skirt.

This is not the same place. SFM is largely based on the west coast and is a chain a lot like Trader Joe's. A cheaper Whole Foods. When I lived in CA, I would shop there all the time - great selection, proves, and service.

The store in JC just used part of their name.

A deal may be in the works in the grocery business industry. Sprouts Farmers Market (SFM) soared in early trading after Bloomberg reported that privately held Albertsons was in talks with the organic grocer about a potential merger. A deal would add to Albertsons? portfolio of supermarket brands, which includes Safeway, Vons and Shaws.

Get some self esteem Monroe- even you should realize you deserve better than this.

Give me a break, do you want to break down every cost for every POTUS and their families? Right now, Obama is sunning himself on a private island in Tahiti-for a month-with Secret Service protection-an island with one hotel, where rooms start at $2K a night. Michelle is god knows where getting protection, as are both kids, one in DC and the other in NY.

How much is that costing us? Obama just signed a $60 million dollar book deal, and we're paying for SS protection at each of his three US residences to boot-should he kick some cash in?

And Obama's policies DOUBLED OUR FREAKING NATIONAL DEBT, and you're obsessed with the First Lady and child getting protection? If you can't get a grip, go buy one.

I think I he big guy in this thread posted some of Trump's positions. He basically said that if liberals were told the Republican presidential propossed this this and this they would gladly accept it. Maybe he can weigh in?

I'm the one who posted that. It remains true.

Many liberals absolutely hate Trump for two reasons. First, it is a way to avoid admitting to themselves that they were totally 100% wrong about Trump having zero chance of winning. They said this over and over again for months. Because their brains can't process how wrong and stupid they were, as a defense mechanism, they have increased rage towards Trump. They also blame other Americans for making them look stupid (dishonestly claiming it's actually the others who are dumb).

Second, their hatred stems from pure emotion, not rationality. Trump does indeed support more liberal positions than any Republican president in modern history, but because they've already been calling him Hitler and a bigoted xenophobic rapist for months if not years, they're too far down the rabbit hole to turn back now.

They are a lost cause and they aren't worth even reaching out to. Instead, reach out to the moderates, who are more connected with reality.

dude, i'm a liberal and i never called trump a hitler. an a_shole or scumbag, yes. and many republicans were calling him that before he got elected amd many republicans thought/hoped that he would not get elected.

as for leadership, i'm shocked that it is ryan putting up a plan for healthcare eform with no input from the insurers, hospitals as per the head of one large hospital operator that appeared on bloomberg.

hillary clinton was not the most exciting candidate, but they turned her into a witch.

Please.... she is a witch, and that was clearly demonstrated when she did not even have the guts to comedown and thank her supporters on election night. Apparently she was preoccupied trashing her hotel suite.
