Jersey City Simpsons

Looks like some Jersey City residents inspired Bart Simpson's prank calls to Moe's Tavern!

It says here that the original prank phone calls went into the Tube Bar in Jersey City.

"Pancho please."

"Pancho who?"

"Pancho Mouf"

"Hey, is there a Pancho Mouf here? Hey! I wanna Punchyourmouth!"

Classic. Something to be proud of.

Jersey City Moment of Zen

Our outdoor ice skating rink is opening soon, and boy doesn't it look just like Rockefeller Center.

Jersey City: Harboring Terrorists

Raid the city! Round everyone up! Check their papers! Our nation is at peril!

It seems a Pakistani with ties to a militant Sunni group was taking pictures of bridges the other day, and he worked in Jersey City. And the first WTC bombers lived here too. So the sky must be falling, and this is where it's all being planned.

Look, I'm not saying it's not scary stuff and we shouldn't be doing what we can within the laws of a decent society. But we cannot become a fascist state because of fear, and we must remember that the vast majority of the Pakistanis in Jersey City are peace-loving, God-fearing and important and active participants in our community.

Don't believe the hype, that all believers in Islam believe in violence (like these people clearly believe), or that Jersey City is some sort of terrorist hotbed.
