The mayor who was present when payoffs were discussed is now trying to tamp down the citizen protests and heat being brought to bear on city hall by coming up with some dog and pony 'blue ribbon panel'. 'An independent audit of the city's development process and for ethics training for city employees involved in development' is being proposed by the mayor.
Too late, bzzzzzzzzt, WRONG. If you need ethics training to not take money for development plans you are just too stupid to be in Jersey City government. This means YOU Mr. Mayor. To even suggest this is proving you to be too stupid to stay on as mayor. Some things are automatic, taking bribes is WRONG, period. You must think the people are really really dimwitted mayor. YOU were in the room discussing these payouts. Your deputy mayor was arrested. Your BFF Mariano Vega was arrested.
This panel and training is a non-starter for us. You need to resign. Mariano needs to resign.
Anyone in the room where payouts were discussed is the absolute wrong person to propose this. We'll buy into it when you're gone mayor.
The protests are to continue until Healy and Vega are out.
