  • I'm done with the counting, but check it out: no illegals on the arrest list this week. Only one Latino name, and since he was busted for DWI, but not for driving without a license, I think we can assume he's in the country legally.

  • Do you *really* assume that all illegal immigrants are Latino?

  • Racism comes in all colors - the way I count it is most of these names sound like bennies, when are we going to start to address the real threat the Bennie problem & threat - they seem to be a the heart of most of the local problems with their Hummers and elitist attitudes - living in their upside down under water homes - doing their white color crimes and road rage - no wonder their acting up and if Obama wins we'll never see a end to it. I think we need to figure out how to deport them back to SI and those unpronounceable exits along the LIE….and make Red Bank a nice place to live again. Hey maybe we'll even get some store downtown that makes sense to shop in! instead of Queens style strip mall!
