this shit happened right where I grew up, I remember this like it was yesterday,,, a very big deal in in NJ when I was a young hippie. My dad carried a gun in those days along with all his friends, Jersey wasnt a hot bed of racial harmony or class harmony in those days. Blue collar no matter color were pretty pissed with this execution,, around the same time our family barber was robbed and killed in elizabeth... riots broke out, lots of people got killed, not like those pussy LA riots, I mean machin gunning killing and fucking brutal brutal killings in these riots.
This kind of pulled the decent people from the blue collar of all stripes back together. I retire in a few years, I am up for a hunting trip.
