Governor Murphy Did Not Consider the Constitution, Now, Jackson Mayor, Council Want To Fine You $10,000 For Violating HIS Orders

JACKSON-The Jackson Township Mayor and Council on Tuesday passed a resolution supporting a bill that is currently going through the legislative process in Trenton that will turn being outside in public during Governor Phil Murphy’s quarantine from a misdemeanor penalty to one that could cost you as much as $10,000.

That law states, “A person who willfully or knowingly violates any provision…declared by the Governor a penalty of not less than $5,000 and not more than $10,000.”

Currently, violations of Murphy’s Law constitutes a disorderly persons offense carrying a potential sentence of up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000.

Jackson Mayor Michael Reina and Councilman Barry Calogero, all declared Republicans joined a bi-partisan effort in Trenton to assist Democrat Governor Phil Murphy’s in enforcing his numerous executive orders directed upon the people of New Jersey.

The action comes when many Jackson residents are out of work and as over-enforcement of Murphy’s executive orders has been on the rise across New Jersey. People are now being ticketed for walking in parks, walking on the street without face protection and in Trenton on Friday, simply sitting in your parked car.

Those small infractions, if the council gets their way would allow Jackson police officers to issue citizens $10,000 fines, an expense nobody, not even the mayor with his full time patronage job at the county, given to him by former GOP Chairman George Gilmore could afford during these times.

This Smurph is a power tripping SOB. NJ was dead already after electing him and filling Trenton with pure swamp scum but now I never knew something dead could die more.

For Easter, a federal judge wrote a luminous decision defending religious liberty

The words overbroad and underinclusive spring to mind in this case, too.

It is no longer the state of New Jersey, it is now the People’s Democratic Republic of New Jersey (PDRNJ).

How does a citizen go about bringing charges against a state government who insists on going against the Constitution?

Deprivation of rights under color of law.

Federal crime.

Yes, I did forget the /s. It is telling, however, that I needed it.

But what if all of these violators formed a UNION? They would all end up receiving a hundred thousand per year plus a little extra "off the books". (The Jersey way).

You bring up an excellent point that I overlooked. With the arrival of the inevitable food shortages there may be some room to consider how these violators can turn their energies into producing for the masses. It is people that can feed us. It’s people!!

Either declare martial law, or kiss my ass.
