I’m not defending this guy in the slightest, but a no soliciting sign 100% includes campaigning (and religious evangelizing).

“I will do everything in my power to see you never get elected to any office higher than dog catcher. I hate you. I hate your family. I hate your solicitors. I hate your contributors. I hate your sponsors. Kindly die and go to hell motherf—–!!!”
A hint of what the general public likely feels when they receive political campaign calls — calls which are pretty much exempt from the Do Not Call List requirements. Hypocritical fuck heads.

Not so much. Door to door canvasing is not solicitation for legal purposes because of the 1st Amendment. At the very least, just saying “No soliciting” is too vague because of the different ways people interpret it, as opposed to the legal decisions.

Yeah, me neither, but I do loathe being awakened from a nap. Sleep is precious.
Where this guy loses me is that he went to the bother of putting his rant in an email. At that point you’re awake, and you’re just being a dick. But if he had just ranted, verbally, at the guy, I’d totally understand where he was coming from.

To be fair, this is only slightly worse than what happens if I wake my wife up from a nap.
OFFS you know what the sign means. Political free speech doesn’t mean other people are forced to pay attention to you.

“My words were uncivil and unprofessional.”
That’s a weird euphemism for “I’m a fucking psycho.” It’s not like he uttered those words immediately upon being awaken, still befuddled by sleep. No, he waited and wrote a letter, afterwards, having had time to think about it. This man is the goddamn Assistant Attorney General and he thinks it’s appropriate professional conduct - unless it gets made public.

In Utah, but in New Jersey that’s how they say hello.

Starting in 2024, all car horns in NJ will have to loudly play a recording when you push the horn: “Die and go to hell, motherf–r!”

“I will do everything in my power to see you never get elected to any office higher than dog catcher.”
The best LEOs I’ve met have been animal control specialists. This should be a compliment, other than an innuendo about the wage difference.

You can take the person out’a New Jersey, but you can never get the New Jersey out’a the person.
P.S. New Jersey’s number one export? People…

Many Asian Americans also have some earned sensitivity around insults involving dogs.
Maybe that’s coincidence! Maybe even probably. I’m just saying that I noticed.

Don’t forget “kindly.” That makes all the difference.
