The Future of Lakewood

[etech0]

Do you need to be a resident of Lakewood to get a vote?
😜

or is it enough to be a future resident?

Any ideas for a thread name that is a drop ambiguous? I don't want anyone to be able to do a quick google search and have an easy time finding all the info and opinions. Never know who may be looking.

A name that is clear and obvious, but not searchable from the wider web.

May get some confused cookie searchers, though.

Any reason for that?

[YitzyS]

I think maybe "The Eisemann Persecution".

The name Eisemann is pretty common, and without a first name it should be pretty inconspicuous. And I want a name that is straightforward and relatively short.

Agree?

Any reason for that?

There are some behind the scenes activity posted here that is better not being read by some people. Nothing too damaging, but not worth flaunting it needlessly.

mimah nafshach, if there is even a slim chance something could be damaging, it should not be posted, and if it is not, why do you care? Anyone Googling enough that they will find it can find this and thread just as easily, no matter what the actual title is.

I think there is a gray area. For example, you don't want a bigoted reporter having the whole case - with all the community comments - deliverable on a silver platter, ready to be skewed to their narrative. This is just one example I could think of.

Did anyone ever report a really aggressive bus driver without video evidence?  If so, did you report it to the company or to the police?  Was there any action taken?  Unsafe drivers are unfortunately the norm in Lakewood but this goes above and beyond in terms of aggression and complete disregard for anyone's safety.  TIA!

obviously this was worse, as he said "above and beyond" and he is talking about Lakewood.

No, I wasn't offering

Eisemann's lawyers submitted a brief today asking for the dismissal.

https://newjerseyglobe.com/judiciary/claiming-a-second-brady-violation-attorney-seeks-to-dismiss-lakewood-rabbi-indictment/

ETA: Nice piece, with a notable mistake in the second paragraph. It says that judge ruled it was intentional. So far, the judge ruled that there was no proof of intentionality.

NJ Globe is doing a great job pumping out these stories!

(BTW, he keeps saying that Paone ruled it was an intentional Brady violation. He has that point wrong. He didn't rule that it was intentional.)

The AG's office finally told Wildstein that the judge didn't rule it was intentional. But doesn't seem to faze Wildstein.

The numbers are wrong. In the 2020 Census Lakewood had 135,158, and the 2022 estimate is 139,506. Lakewood is the only one in the top 5 to see its population increase from 2020-2022.
