Yes, it’s true, probably the Hoofin blogspot was part of Biondi’s genesis. Hoofin pointed out that Biondi seems to favor people with ethnic Italian last names for local government positions.

But that hardly makes Hoofin a bigot—-that’s DBC’s slander! (and that guy CAN slander!)

Notice how Biondi has quickly abandoned that little bill of his.

But meanwhile, DBC has hardly retracted any of his slanderous statements.

And for a guy who supported the Biondi bill, trust me, it takes a lot of legal and investigative legwork to find out who “DBC” actually is!

Common questions that we see from men wanting to know about women on line in other countries:

Does she have a local boyfriend?
Does she have other men on line that ‘she has serious’ relationships too?
If so why? Is she scamming them all?

What are her true motivations?

Remember this: You are from a Developed Nation…She is not!
For that very simple reason you have to be CAREFUL…but how can you know for sure when she is thousands of miles away?

I think it was your buddy Hoofin that started this whole ball rolling. On his Blog Mr. Hoofin referred to Mr Biondi as a Mafia-Don-style Assemblyman (see hoofin’s blog dated 11/10/06,) just days after the hoofin supported “Q3” public question (to divide Hillsborough into wards) failed in Hillsborough.

After hoofin was called on the carpet for his bigoted remarks he dug himself in deeper by proclaiming 80% (which he later correct to 60%) of Hillsborough government is Italian, or at least Italian sounding names, attempting to somehow justify his Mafia-Don-style, statement.

I believe Assemblyman Biondi’s bill is aimed at situations just like I’m outlining here. Assemblyman Biondi does not what to inhibit free speech, but just wants to make people accountable for their words. Is that a problem?

I myself am a strong support of free anonymous speech and I feel it most certainly has it’s place in American Politics and should never be banned, which the bill doesn’t. However, with that freedom, comes the reasonability of honest speech. To hide behind an alias, and portray anyone as a mobster (which is my opinion of what hoofin was doing) is simply wrong, unless hoofin can prove the Assemblyman is a mobster, which I’m sure, he can’t.

Anyway, just so you know your No Biondi vote will for certain be cancelled by my Yes for Biondi vote. Mine and a tons of other Hillsborough residents that frankly are sick and tired of the shenanigans we have witnessed on the Hillsborouigh board at the hands of hoofin and his buddy Glennvl.

I would like to remind Mr. Biondi that Alexander Hamilton, one of the authors of the “Federalist Papers” signed his essays as ‘Publius.’

I strongly suggest that Mr. Biondi READ the Federalistr papers and READ the Constitution before he ventures into supporting bills that chill free speech.

As an AVERAGE CITIZEN, even I know what “prior restraint” is — and I am AMAZED that a N.J. elected official does not.

(I’m not in his district - I’m in Morris not Somerset)

The “civility” stuff, ostensibly an attempt to make the government into Miss Manners, is, obviously, a smoke screen. He wants to damp out criticism under a cloud of unspecified lawsuits and harassment.

That plan doesn’t make Biondi stupid. It makes him a sneak and a sleaze. Had he been a bit sneakier or craftier he might have come up with a better smoke screen. This time, he was caught. I expect he’ll try again, but next time hide it better. The more of you who think that he’s too dumb to do that, the easier it will be to sneak it right past you.

I don’t know anything about Biondi. I’m in Massachusetts. They’re pretty dumb up here too. As well as sneaky and sleazy.

HAH!

You guys are missing the OTHER law that was supposed to come into effect this past Monday which the feminists call the “Mail Order Bride” law. This would have forced all Americans who wish to meet foreigners over the Internet to send the foreigners their criminal background histories as well as how many children they have BEFORE they could be allowed to simply say “hello” or determine if the foreigner is even a man or woman, criminal or honest person.

The International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA) states that all men wishing to make contact with foreign women must first send their criminal background histories and other extremely personal data to the foreign woman and have her sign an affidavit that it is OK for him to speak to her… BEFORE HE CAN EVEN SAY HELLO.

Please scroll down to HR3402-3 Subtitle D:

Here are the court documents where in EuropeanConnections.com convinced a federal judge to continue allowing American men their First and Fifth Amendment Rights until March 20th when there will be a hearing:

Great material here, including the proof that guys who seek foreign wives are in the highest income brackets (and thus beat the foreign wives less than other men beat their American wives).

The feminists will stop at nothing to take away the rights of American men to use the Internet to date and marry whom they want.

President Bush cluelessly signed IMBRA as part of the Violence Against Women Act on January 6th…despite the fact that IMBRA could not pass Congress on its own when it was presented last fall. I think Bush made a deal with Maria Cantwell, the sponsor of the bill, that she would vote against filibustering Alito if he signed this law.

What helped get a unanimous vote in Congress was a mendacious mini-series on feminist Lifetime Television for Womyn called “Human Trafficking”…which implied incorrectly that there is a connection between international dating agencies and trafficking.

If you read the court documents that just got men a reprieve…it seems that Justice Alito is prone to throw this law out…so if NOW and Lifetime Television for Womyn appeal a lower court ruling against the law to the Supreme Court…the Supreme Court is likely to affirm the ruling.

More can be found at http://www.imbra.org and http://www.online-dating-rights.com.

And then you guys are forgetting the socalled “Electronic Annoyance Law” that Bush also cluelessly signed in January. Now you cannot argue with anyone online without the loser saying “email me once more and I will charge you under the new law that you are annoying me”.

I am glad I live in Europe.

A quick review by the Star Ledger found the bill would violate at least several provisions of federal law, at least one Supreme Court case, and that’s before we get to the US Constitution. Buzz Machine has the details.

It’s not about “civility”. It’s about power and control. It’s about placating the bruised egos of career politicians and then wrapping it all up under the fraudulent cause of “civility”. People like Biondi want to be able to hunt down these annonymous complainers and harass them into silence instead of using the same forum to answer legtimate questions and complaints.

Why is it that they feel the need to legislate civility?

Because they can. Last time I checked, the average, mature, quasi-blue state had approaching a half million laws and statutes on the books. Undoubtedly, I just broke a bunch.

Who knew?

Like water.

If folks wrote statehouses half as much as they did online, even that would completely reform our lovely runaway government.

Why is it that they feel the need to legislate civility? I’m tired of knee-jerk reactions seeking to create new laws all the time anytime anything happens. If they feel the need to DO something, why doesn’t he — on his own dime — start a conversation about “civility”; in the papers, on the forums, in public libraries. Take it on the road, but golly, use common sense and skip the legislation.

Mr. Blaser,

Thank you for your e-mail. I understand your concerns with my recently
proposed legislation. Based on the number of negative responses I have
received about this legislation I have asked the NJ Office of Legislative
Services to prepare an opinion regarding this bill’s enforceability and
constitutionality.

I did not draft this bill with intent to limit freedom of speech. The
intent behind this legislation was to bring some civility back to public
forums, in particular the forums on http://www.nj.com. As I receive more feedback
from, literally, around the country, it is becoming apparent that the bill
may be too broad in scope and in reality not enforceable.

As an aside, this bill was only introduced in January. There have been no
committee hearings regarding this bill and there are none scheduled to my
knowledge. I am getting inundated with responses which I will review and
use to better educate myself on the implications of this bill. If, after
reviewing all of the correspondence and the opinion of OLS, it turns out
that the bill is, in fact, unworkable, I will certainly reconsider and
withdraw it. In other words, this is not something that will happen
overnight.

It is unfortunate, from my perspective, that while my intention here was
civility and respectfulness, it turns out that it may have gone too far.

Thank you again for your e-mail.

Sincerely,

Pete Biondi
Assemblyman

The Republicans even have this worked down to a science. They call it “catch and release”. When a bill is sure to pass they allow various people to vote against it to demostrate their “independence” from the party to the voters back home.

I’m sure a close reading of H.L. Mencken will find that he had a few choice names for this sort of thing.

By the way, Jeff… I wish you well in your quest to get that thug voted out of office. By all means, campaign loud and campaign hard to get rid of him. And please don’t let people get away with saying “well, the courts will just throw it out anyway”… because they WON’T!
