‘It’s My Constitutional Right!’ New Jersey Council Removes Man for … Holding a U.S. Flag

As excited as we are getting that Conservatism will soon be in control of all three branches of the federal government—and for once seem to be genuinely interested in reducing the size of that government, it is important to remember there is still a lot of work to do across America, particularly at the state and local levels.

This from twitchy.com.

Republicans encouragingly moved every county in America to the right and almost won a traditionally blue state like New Jersey. But New Jersey still has its blue swamp holes.

Take the town of Edison, for example, where the city council recently banned the American flag at its meetings.

Now, allow a few seconds to read that line again.

Yes, our American flag was banned from the city council meeting.

Wha is worse, the council proved they are willing to enforce this new rule at the point of a gun. When one resident defied the rule to speak to the council holding Old Glory, the council had police remove him.

WATCH:

Technically, the new rule, called Ordnance 2239, bans all ‘props’ from town council meetings. And, yes, our American flag is now a ‘prop’? These people are some dangerous kind of extreme Left.

Further, as a limit to free speech, Ordnance 2239 also drastically reduces the amount of time citizens are allowed to speak before the council.

The man in the video, Joel Bassoff, is both a resident of Edison and an attorney. As you can see in the video, he has promised to sue the council. Good for him. He should.

And after he wins, the entire council, including President Nishith Patel (the man who had police remove Bassoff) should be recalled and fired.

The New Jersey Republican Party has all but promised the next council meeting on December 11 will be an entire sea of American flags.

America will be watching. Oh, and imagine who else has promised to get involved?

Uh-oh. You screwed up BIG TIME, Edison Town Council.

We the People have marked our calendars.

Well, they’ve been telling us they hate America for years.

The difference is that now we are listening and now we believe them when they tell us who they are.

Some of the council members have elections coming up soon and should probably start updating their resumes.

Oh, look at that. The council president himself is up for re-election in 2025.

Bassoff should absolutely run against him. And run campaign ads featuring the video above.

People often say that blue-state residents get this because they keep voting for it. And that is true. Or at least it has been true.

For the past two election cycles in a row, New Jersey has shifted right. If elected officials keep this up, the blue swamps may turn red enough to put these hateful public servants all in the unemployment line.

We the People hope this is true. And we hope the residents of New Jersey have long memories.

The days when democrat officials represented the people who elected them are long gone—they have transformed into communists/globalists. They keep proving they hate this country, do not care about or respect their voters, and will even have armed police forcibly silence them.

It is high time voters started rejecting them.

With Scott Presler now heavily involved in turning New Jersey red, at the federal, state, and local level, there may be hope for The Garden State yet.
