NJ Board of Education Member Under Investigation for Calling Kamala Harris a ‘Street Walker’

This is so absurd and, again, dangerous.

Gregory Martucci is a member of the Board of Education in Linden, New Jersey, and a former Vice-Principal. These are positions of responsibility. Admittedly, so are the people in the media and in higher office. He called the Vice President of the United States a “streetwalker.”

The level of anger and hatred in this country counties to increase at a dangerous pace, an unsustainable pace. When people in positions of responsibility are willing to say the ugliest of things about a woman vice-president, not as criticism, but as simple spite, we are headed down a long road that will not turn around, perhaps for a generation. It is that bad. From Rawstory:

Gregory R. Martucci posted the comment on the “I grew up in Linden” Facebook page in response to a post from pro-Trump comedian and actor Terrence K. Williams that was shared by someone else.

“She is right off the wingnut streets of San Francisco. What do you expect from a streetwalker who has no clue about America,” Martucci wrote on Williams’ post that featured Harris telling migrants attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border, “Do not come.”

How is this acceptable, entertaining, fulfilling, any of it? Even worse, it is clearly mimicking what he’s heard in the media and from the MAGAs near the top, the same people with a political agenda to put it out there.

Additionally, San Francisco is “America.” This is the root of the problem. These people feel entitled to the country, they have ownership, the only true citizens, and that is exactly what lead to the January 6th riot. It could lead to another one, or something below the surface, more sinister, more effective, and worse.

Peace, y’all
