The code is 39:4-138d, I know this because I have a house in JC and poeple used ot block my driveway all the time. The car has to be completely behind the line otherwise they can get a ticket. The car can only be towed if you can't get out of your driveway, not if you can't get in.

You guys make me laugh, I'm glad they come around and ticket and boot people. I've lived in ares of Jersey City that the parking was so bad that I would have to park 4 or 5 blocks from my house because people who live out of town park there. So maybe this will keep people from parking there and going to work in NY.

It's ten feet, reguardless if the sidewalk is painted or not. Learned that the hard way.

Let me guess another alterboy.

I'm glad they are going to write people tickets for talking on thier cell phones, tired of the nit wits who keep hitting my car because they are trying to park while on thier phones and aren't paying attention.

Sorry to tell you this but to all you JC transplants, and those of you who refuse to travel too far from your little neighborhoods, but I've eaten in them all. Been around since Larry and Joe owned and worked in Larry and Joe's when Three Guys from Italy ( the original one, by the way they were the best back then, they just didn't deliver ) was on journal square and when Villagio's was on route 440 and I remeber Vinnie from Vinnie's on Kennedy Blvd in the heights (before he met his untimely passing ). Best pizza now is definitely Stella's on grove, best Italian food Carmine's on Mallory, Best grilled chicken sub Larry and Joe's on Newark ave. Best Italian deli Andrea's on Central ave. Runner's up Carmine's on Brunswick makes agood pie and the Italian food is pretty good. Another good pie is at Vincent's on Kenndy blvd and Linden ave, they deliver late anywhere in the city( good for the summer too sometimes he's open til 3am). So for all you people who don't know anything other than Christopher Columbus and Washington Blvd,break out the phone book and you can look on the maps or just look them up and try them out before you tell me how great NY pizza is and Hoboken pizza is, which in my opinion is too thin and not cook enough, and what ever jar sauce he is using please switch. Check them out and give me your opinion.

So now your going to tell me the kid was a saint, never been in trouble. Why hasn't anyone asked the question, what was a 15 year old doing with a gun in his pocket?

Sorry if I don't have any sympathy, or am not showing enough compassion for his death, but what I don't understand is why everyone is making this thing seem like he was an innocent victim in a shooting. Apparently someone got to him before he could get them, maybe that's why he had a gun on him.

So why don't we ask the question, why don't juveniles go to jail, why are they allowed to commit crimes and then go home with thier parents, given alittle slap on the wrist. Maybe he was carrying a gun because he either committed crime or was going to use it to commit a crime.

Can someone answer that for me?

I've met this guy, and in my personal opinion he shouldn't be allowed to own,carry or sell guns. I own guns and went in there to check the place out one day long before the incident and he seems alittle too extreme for me. He seems to think the only way to protect yourself in this world is with a gun. Sorry but I don't agree. I have had extensive training with firearms and can tell you that you can shoot at someone from three feet away and still miss. So relying on protecting yourself with a gun is not the answer.

When I was in his store a guy came into the store and was asking about his sports gear, and Dave tried to sell him a gun. When the guy told him that he didn't believe in owning one Dave went a rampage on "what are you going to do if someone breaks into your house in the middle of the night adn wants to rob you, if you had a gun you could protect yourself". The guy told Dave if someone breaks into my house in the middle of the night I will go out the fire escape and call the police. He didn't like that response.

I don't believe the "cities are massaging test results" as you put it. I took one of those tests once and I do know this, on the test and I don't think it is a requirement to fill in the race section and as far as the results the cities don't grade the test, the Dept. of Personnel does. All the cites ask for is a list created by the DOP and it goes by residency requirement. They ask for so many names and the DOP sends the notices to the people. So it's not the old days when the cities got the scores and called who they wanted to.

So you mean to tell me that it's ok to hire someone only because they are a minority. If the problem they claim is that they are having a difficult time finding qualified people in this city because of criminal backgrounds then open the residency requirements to other cities.
