Last Saturday night, five Jewish people were stabbed by a Jew-hater wielding a machete at a Hasidic rabbi’s house in the suburb of Monsey, New York. One of the victims suffered serious head injuries, which has left him in a coma and...

Whenever a member of law enforcement shoots his or her gun, the public needs to be kept informed. When three officers open fire on a city street outside a public housing complex, striking two men, cars and an occupied home, that need to be informed multiplies exponentially. And beyond that, the public also needs to be assured by city leaders that their safety and concerns matter. Despite calls from members of the community for him to address what happened, Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop has been silent on the police shooting Monday night that left a 19-year-old and a 21-year-old...
