I am a student attending the AUL Charter High School in Perth Amboy, New Jersey. As an AULCHS student, I found the reasons for Leslie Dominguez-Rodriguez’s refusal to vote to be more of a politically motivated slight against my school than a safety problem as she claimed. Dominguez-Rodriguez claimed that our use of the rectory […]

The two terms go hand-in-hand but apparently that does not apply in the case of my friend and colleague, David Spevack, when his superiors apparently made the decision to relieve him of his duties as prosecutor in the Municipal Court. David is a great guy, pleasant, respectful and considerate to the public in general. Recently, […]

I would like to dedicate a song to a friend of mine who died this past June. He was a long time crossing guard in Metuchen. The name of the song is “When you are smiling, When you are smiling. The whole world smiles with you.” The name of my friend was Bobby Moten. I […]

You may wonder why I would use the death of my sister in an editorial. She is one of the faces of those who courageously battle cancer. Unfortunately she lost that battle less than a month after she was diagnosed with the disease. In the short time she had left she was concerned more about […]

This is an explanation of some recent proposals. The purpose of firearm registration is not just to allow a future confiscation, but to allow a regressive tax on owners or firearms. The idea of banning the so-called “gun show loophole” is to reduce the value of firearms. If they can’t be sold their value drops […]

Your recent story regarding the Muniz case is biased and disappointing. You simply recounted a lawsuit with its allegations, along with the phrase “court documents say.” It is important for readers to know that anyone can file a civil suit for anything. No verification of facts will take place until the suit goes through a […]
