It was a bloody Sunday in Trenton, as residents were supposed to be locked down in their homes because of the coronavirus outbreak.
By 10 p.m., police were investigating five shootings that happened in a span of four hours throughout the city, ---SNIP---
Officials wondered if Gov. Phil Murphy's stay-at-home order may have contributed to pent-up rage among Trentonians cooped up in their houses due to the deadly coronavirus sweeping the state.
"We lost our humanity," Mayor Reed Gusciora said by text message late Sunday. "May be retaliatory. And emotions have just boiled over today."

They did not lose their humanity.
They lost their Christianity.
Humans are by nature violent and murderous.
Every child is a wild animal that needs to be taught morality.
The default position is violent, selfish behavior.

That’s the paragraph that really jumps out. There’s sickness there, all right, but it’s not Corona.

I reckon the good mayor wasn't around Camden in the early 1970s. My cousin would run to school and run home with a bunch of blacks chasing him like a pack of hyenas. If they caught him they beat him up and stole his sneakers right off his feet.

Strange that the loss of humanity seems to be prevalent in the bergs controlled by the liberals.
