SETH GROSSMAN: This Friday, September 4, we’ll hold a ceremony, – at the park by the library in Somers – Point, – at Shore Road across the street from Charlie’s – Bar. – To remember Richard Somers, our local hero from Somers Point. He died on September 4, 1804, in Tripoli, North Africa. He fighting in America’s first foreign war against Islamic terror.
The full story of Richard Somers is published on Page 8 of this week’s edition of Shore Local, a free newspaper in the area.
Morton Klein, the President of the ZOA, the Zionist Organization of America will be speaking at 7pm this Sunday night at the Rodef Sholom Synagogue at Plaza Place and Atlantic Avenue, in Atlantic City. According to the flyers, he will be talking about how to fight antisemitism, and the propaganda lies against Israel.  Unfortunately, most Jewish organizations that claim to fight antisemitism make the problem worse. That is because they seem more interested – in keeping their stupid rainbow, – leftist coalition together so we keep electing Democrats. They are not protecting Jews.
JOHN DEMASI: What is the reason? Why is there so much antisemitism? – I know you could talk for an hour – about this, but what do you know about it?
SETH GROSSMAN: In my opinion, socialism is the main cause of antisemitism, that is hatred of Jews and we have more socialism than ever in America today. Socialism is built on two basic ideas. One is envy and jealousy. Socialism tells people if they don’t have what they want in their lives, it is because a small group of rich, powerful people took it away. It promotes the idea that too many people have too little because one small group has too much.
It also teaches people to blame and hate a small group of other people for every problem or evil in the world, instead of taking responsibility and working to make thins better.
Once you have that mentality, it is very easy to get to antisemitism. That is, blame Jews for everything that is bad in the world. That is because for years, Jews have been very successful in free societies like Europe and America. Jews are taught since childhood to read, and study, and learn, and share information with others. Those are skills that help you succeed in free societies.
And then, most Jewish organizations make this problem work. When these Jewish organizations claim they are fighting antisemitism, they rarely attack the Communists and the socialists who are the worst Jew haters. They instead falsely blame people they call “white supremacists” or “right wing extremists.” But they really attack many good Christians, conservatives, Republicans and of course, President Trump. And when you falsely blame good people for being antisemites, you are going to make many of them angry.
The truth is that in real life, you don’t have classes of bad people oppressing and exploiting good people. Most real people have good and bad within them. Very often, mostly bad people will do good things, and mostly good people will do bad things. The key to life is critical thinking, good judgment, discernment, wisdom.  At one time, Americans were very good at that.
The most important story is this. Two good people were killed in Mays Landing last Saturday because we are unwilling and unable to lock up criminals, especially teenage criminals who bully people, attack people, rob people, and kill people.
At about 3:30 AM early last Saturday morning, in the middle of the night, four teenagers from Atlantic City – stole a big, expensive $200,000 SUV in Longport. When they were approached by the Longport police, they drove away over the Longport Bridge towards Somers Point at a very high rate of speed. -The ended up on Route 50 in Mays Landing. They were speeding. They crossed over and drove on the wrong side of the road. They ran head on into a couple driving in the opposite direction. It was at Route 50 and 3rd Street, right in the middle of Mays Landing. They killed Alice Stillwell – and Robert Barr, both of Egg Harbor Township.Â
We posted the whole story on our website – under the title, – I I believe that the title was, – something like, – two two here it is. Teens – caught and released twice in Atlantic City – till two in Mays Landing. – And when you look at the video – of just, you must had a huge SUV. – I think it was a $280,000, – car, Mercedes, – SUV. – Well, it must have been going 70 or – 80 miles an hour, – swerves into the oncoming lane – and hits these poor people. You see they – never had a chance. The absolute horror. – And if you don’t already know how evil – and dysfunctional – the politics and government of this country have – become, – the senseless death of these two people should – wake you up, – but I’m not so sure. – Because – what led to the deaths of Alice Stillwell – and Robert Barr – have been going on for fifty years. And – I just don’t have time to discuss the – details, but let’s just talk about the the – main points. Number one, for the past sixty – five years, – black Americans and the rest of us have – been fed this fake black history instead of – real American history. – And the fake black history tells us that – every problem, every failure in the black community – is the fault of white racism. – Therefore, black teachers, black parents, black leaders, or – black anybody – has no responsibility – whatsoever for their actions – responsibility – for raising their children. Number three. We have – schools that spend $25,000 – a year that teach these kids absolutely no – skills, – no discipline, – no sense of controlling yourself, – knows living in a civilized – society. All they’re taught is anger and hate – and blame somebody else for everything wrong in – your life and and to have this, chip – on your shoulder. – Number four. We have a culture that makes – police – more afraid of criminals – than criminals are afraid of police. – Now I don’t know the details of this – case, but it seems that groups of teenagers – in Atlantic City – had been stealing, – very expensive high end cars in Longport – and other rich down beach neighborhoods for months. – And one of the teens, the one that – killed Alice Stilwell and Robert Barr, one of – the four teens in in that car because – we don’t really know who was driving that – car. – He was arrested and released twice for stealing – cars – just in the past two months. Jeez. And – how did this happen? – Were the Longport police afraid to confront a – black teenager walking around the neighborhood in the – middle of the night? – Were they afraid that they’d be sued for – profiling? – Because that’s that’s what it is. Remember walking – by while black, driving by while black? – We we convinced these police officers – that they make one mistake – and their career, their lives are over. They’re – ruined. And so when they they see stuff – that is suspicious that you ought to investigate, – they don’t, – because we don’t support police – who who do who are proactive. – And of course, what happened when they Long – Port Police at I guess it was 03:30 – in the morning, – saw the fourteens, – in the car acting, – suspiciously. I don’t know if they were speeding – or ran through a stop sign or a – red light. – Heck, I know what happens to me if – I run a red light in Longport. – If I run a stop sign in Longport, – heck, if I go more than 35 miles – an hour in Longport, you know, they’re – I I get pulled over. – But for whatever reason, these four teams, they – just took off at 03:30 in the morning. – And, – according to the reports in the paper, the – Long Port Police say, well, they went they – went away. – Doesn’t say any sign of a pursuit and – that’s probably – it is, those, four teens end up in – Mays Landing four hours later, – 07:45. – The Hamilton Township Police, see them, – follow them, but it’s too late. The the – teens had speeded up. They were going 70 – to 80 miles an hour. And, by time – the Hamilton police got there minutes later, – you know, two people were dead. – So, – that that’s what we have. – So, I have a question, though. – Did you say that that that the kid – one of the kids – stole a car two months ago? – Twice. Twice. Twice. So so how is he – out? How is he out? How is this – kid out? Well, that that’s a good question. – Were were they juveniles? Were they out on – bail? Well, I I have a a hunch – that part of the reason – is, – you know, and this has been talked about – for two or three years – that we only have we have probably dozens – if not hundreds – of very dangerous – teens living in Orlando County. – But we only have one juvenile jail called – Harborfield – on Buffalo Avenue in Egg Harbor City. – It was built to hold 20 juvenile inmates. – They made some modifications. I think now it’s – holding 27. – So what happens when you have your your – twenty eighth violent kid, you know, gets arrested? – Well, somebody’s getting released. – You know, the details, – and maybe, Dennis Levinson, I don’t know if – he talked about this, – when he was on. But basically, two years – ago, there was a lawsuit – where the county sued the state and said, – you know, we have all these dangerous juveniles. – You, the state, have the obligation – to have a place for us to send – them. And then the state sued the city – or the sued the county and said, oh, – no. It’s the county’s responsibility. – So for two years, the state and county – were suing each other. Meanwhile, nothing – got built. No no one’s talking about building – anything. No one’s planning any about building anything. – And now two people are dead. So, – and and it’s not even a political issue. – Last, yesterday, – Democratic Senator Cory Booker was in Atlantic City. – And he was talking about, oh, we’re we’re – have a low income city and we’re building – this and we’re building that. We’re building the – other thing. Not one person, not one politician – did anything, – about the need to build a new juvenile – jail so we could get these dangerous, – you know, to call them kids. I mean, – they’re teenage man children – who are savages. – And and we’ve got to get them off – the streets and protect people. – But, it’s a political campaign. If the Republicans – don’t talk about it and the Democrats don’t – talk about it, nothing’s gonna get done, and – and the people just watch this stuff happen. – Boy. – Mhmm. You put it that way. It’s really – disturbing. – Really is. – Well, obviously, not disturbing enough. We’ve got to – have people get invited to these political events, – Republicans and Democrats. – And and black Americans, this this does not – it is not good for the black community – because, – you know, most of this stuff happens in – the black neighborhoods. – Most, you know, middle class whites don’t deal – with it unless they happen to steal a – car. And and and we see that, but – this is going on every day in Atlantic – City, Pleasantville, – Bridgeton, and and God knows where – else. But anyway, that’s all posted on the – Liberty and Prosperity website. –
America’s $40 trillion debt, 40,000 billion dollars! Last week,I explained how this is destroying America as much – as anything else. – And I said that President Trump was responsible – for one fourth of that. – We’re spending a trillion dollars a year, – that we that America doesn’t have just printing – out this money. – It’s wrecking the economy in every possible way. – And I know that two people called in to comment on what I said.
One of them said, well, Trump tried – to cut the spending, but the courts won’t – let him. He keeps getting sued. – But I think it’s important to remember that, – you know, the president is not the king. – You know, he could only he has to – follow the law that congress makes. – And since, President Nixon in 1972, – the Supreme Court has held – that if congress makes a budget – and if the president approves that budget, and – that budget says that certain money has to – be spent on certain things, – the president can’t just say I don’t wanna – spend the money. He has to follow the – law. So if the president wants to cut – the spending, – he has to veto the budgets – until, – Congress gives a budget that doesn’t have that – reckless spending. But he can’t just on his – own say, I’m not gonna spend the money. – Otherwise, he’s gonna get sued and he’s gonna – lose. So I just wanted to bring that – up. – Well, – well, listen. Trump is he’s pretty familiar with – being sued. – Yeah. Well, I mean but that’s it. And – and and, look, I’ve dealt with Trump when – he was in Atlantic City, and he just – had this attitude. – You know, – that if if you wanna win a lawsuit, – you just have to have the most expensive – lawyer, the fanciest lawyer, the sharpest lawyer, and – you could do what you want. – But, when you reach a certain level, you – just can’t get away with that. You have – to comply with the law, and the and – this is a country of laws. –
A second caller was Bob of Cape May. I love Bob. He has been a longtime supporter of Liberty and Prosperity. But we disagree on some issues. Last week, Bob called in and said, one of the biggest champions of spending cuts and balanced budgets is Tom Massey, a Republican Congressman from Kentucky. He was one of the strongest and articulate members of the Republican Freedom Caucus Congress.
Last week, Bob asked, why did AIPAC and other Jewish supporters of Israel spend so much money to defeat Tom Massey in the Republican Primary and knock him out of Congress?
The short answer to that is that, – Trump wanted to do his spending, and he – got rid of a whole bunch of congressmen – who, who were opposed to spending, especially that – big beautiful bill. He got rid of Bob – Good in Virginia. – He got rid of, Tom Massey. He got – rid of Ralph Norman, a solid conservative in South Carolina, – just last Tuesday. – So why would the so-called Jewish lobby give money to elect reckless spenders to Congress? The short answer is that every single issue lobby does this all the time. That is what you need to influence the government these days. And when you have a big government that controls everything you do, people feel they cannot succeed unless they pay people to inflence the government. That’s the political culture we have today. It doesn’t matter how corrupt they are, how – unconstitutional – they are. If you have a politician who’s going to give you what you want, – you will give that politician money to get him elected. I guarantee you that that Bob of Cape May is a very successful businessman. I’m sure he has a real estate association. He has probably has a hotel motel association. And those business associations probably give money to politicians who may do all these rotten things. But  if those politicians give you the permits or tax breaks or other things you need to succeed in business, you’re – going to give money to get those politicians elected. So if Trump said, – well, I don’t like these congressmen, – and if you want to be my friend, you – help me get rid of these congressmen.Â
I don’t like what the pro-Israel lobby did by supporting Trump in this way. But every lobby routinely does the same thing. They often help elect bad politicians to get what they want in return. It’s an awful situation and a sign of a corrupt democracy. But I think it’s unfair to single out and attack supporters of Israel for doing what single issue lobbyists do all the time in this dysfunctional democracy we have today.
