Snow Bust Censored

A New Jersey family that fashioned a snow sculpture to look like a Greek statue were told to cover it up by police after someone complained. Shockingly, they complied and according to the Star-Ledger, dressed the snowlady “with a green bikini top and a blue sarong around her ample hips.”

NJ Farmers Ready To Grow Weed

Last month, New Jersey became the 14th state in the nation to legalize medical weed and farmers there want in on the action. The legislation signed into law was a little ambiguous about providers, but they’re hopeful about the future prospects of growing what could be the state’s most popular herb and one “nurseryman” had this to say: “We would all like to grow it because we think it would be a good cash crop—literally.” Totally cliché, but true. |TheDailyJournal|

Jersey Man Who Shot Pet Parrot for Jabbering During NASCAR Race Indicted

A New Jersey man has been indicted on animal cruelty charges after he shot and killed his parrot last summer when the colorful bird wouldn’t shut the fuck up during a very important NASCAR race. 67-year-old Dennis Zeglin of Morristown faces five years in prison and a $15,000 fine if convicted. I wonder what kind of treatment one gets in prison from other inmates when you’re in there for shooting a bird with a BB gun? |CBS|

New Jersey Finally Earns Its ‘Garden State’ Title

Last night, outgoing governor Jon Corzine signed a medical weed bill into law, officially making New Jersey the 14th state in the nation to legalize cannabis for medicinal use. It will take about six months to get things rolling (get it?) and there’s at least ten conditions that will qualify patients for a prescription. Do you have what it takes? Read more »

New Jersey: No Legalization Without Taxation

Did anyone really think that NJ would legalize medical weed and not wanna tax every gram? Okay, so homegrown will be illegal, who cares? It doesn’t generate revenue for the state anyway and like the insurance companies, they’re in this for the money, not to improve methods for treating sick people. Also, growing top quality chronic isn’t easy and should probably be left to the experts for now anyway. |NYP|

New Jersey Says Yes To Medical Weed

New Jersey is mostly a terrible place, but they now have at least one advantage over New York: medical weed legislation. The assembly finally got around to approving weed for medicinal purposes, making it the 14th state in the country to do so once the governor signs it into law. The Empire State better follow suit pretty quickly or I predict a mass influx of New Yorkers getting New Jersey licenses despite the stigma it carries. |NYT|

NJ State Police: Lou Dobbs is Full of Shit

Hey remember the other day when Lou Dobbs claimed that some dirty Mexicans managed to put down their chalupas and Meximelts, rustled up some fancy firearms and then proceeded to shoot up his house, because that’s what dirty Mexicans do, obviously. During his little radio tirade, during which Lou of course came to logical conclusion that it just had to be people pissed at his efforts to end illegal immigration who did it, Dobbs claimed that he’d reported the incident to the “very supportive” New Jersey state police. Well now those same New Jersey state police are telling a different story, that Dobbs’ house was likely sprayed by random gunfire from people hunting in the area, a relatively common occurrence: Read more »

Turkeys Go All Velociraptor On Terrified Jersey Residents

An intrepid videographer who was also chased, shot footage of the ugly beasts as they stalked and attacked a woman and her son in a Cherry Hill, New Jersey suburb. Luckily, she was able to escape them and not get run over by a car in the process. No word on if the town is still plagued by the menacing turkeys or if the woman has left her house since the incident. Video of the bird on human violence below.

A 1,400 pound bull bolted from a slaughterhouse in the calf-molesting state of NJ and made it about 10 blocks before authorities were able to sedate it and return the animal to its inevitable short-lived fate. |1010Wins|

Sodomy Doesn’t Constitute Animal Cruelty In NJ

As if there wasn’t already enough reasons to hate New Jersey, here’s another: the state is obviously pro-bestiality. A crazy judge dismissed an even crazier cop who was accused of forcing baby cows to give him a blowjob. The Daily News reports that he “allegedly stuck his penis in the mouths of five calves in Southampton in 2006.” But according to sicko Judge James J. Morley, although the sex act is certainly “disgusting” he’s not convinced its animal cruelty. To articulate his demented ruling, he made an equally deranged comment about milk or something, which seems utterly inappropriate considering the context: Read more »
