More than 13,000 motorists in New Jersey whom the state Supreme Court ruled were convicted of drunken driving with illegal evidence are still fighting for the chance to challenge their convictions in court.

When I was young, my father often reminded us about our family history. He talked about our great-grandfather, who fled violent, anti-Semitic mobs that punctuated the Jewish experience in czarist Russia and immigrated to the United States at the turn of the 20th century. He spoke of his aunt, who married a Hungarian refugee in the 1950s who managed to survive the Nazi occupation and Soviet invasion. He talked about cousins with numbers tattooed on their arms an involuntary and permanent brand etched into their skin by fascists when they were children.
He told us that a country governed by rule of law requires vigilance and dedication to ensure that it is followed and observed. Commitment to the rule of law that foundational principle that all persons, corporations and even the government itself are accountable to an equally enforced law protects all of us, especially minorities, from mob rule.

One of my favorite stories of the past month or so has been the auction to push the button to blow up Trump Plaza.
We know that it won’t happen. But would you believe the idea actually originated with a Republican former elected official, who then passed it onto a state senator who passed it on to another Republican state senator who passed it on to Mayor Marty Small?
