It's the town of Clark.

On Saturday, they were the visiting team at Arthur L. Johnson High School in Clark County, New Jersey, which . . .


Clark isn't that far from Plainfield - but the fact that this happened? Not surprising. Clark is part of Union County - which is part of the 7th District. Our Democratic Candidate for Congress had swastikas painted on his house during the election.

It's everywhere. They are everywhere.

Tell me again about how I'm supposed to have faith in the millenials and the next generation?

Now - we don't know WHO did it. Who knows who did it? But it doesn't look good. That said - I expect this out in Horse Country or down in Mantua - not in Clark.

Unless someone steps forward - they should be forced to attend school next Monday.

But they are mostly Italian immigrants - extremely liberal -all kind of on the same few streets. They keep their heads down. We looked at a few homes in this town (in these few blocks) because they are all from my husband's town back home - or the towns surrounding it. Those few blocks also have quite a few affluent black and hispanic families on them . . . but their kids tend to go to prep schools.
