JERSEY CITY, NJ The Anti-Defamation League has called for embattled school board trustee Joan Terrell-Paige to resign from her position following "her anti-Semitic, inflammatory, and deeply-hurtful comments." Terrell-Paige said in a long, since-deleted Facebook post said "Where was all this faith and hope when black homeowners were threatened, intimidated, and harassed by I WANT TO BUY YOUR HOUSE brutes of the Jewish community?" Terrell-Paige made the comments just days after a mass shooting in Jersey City's Greenville neighborhood left six people dead, including Joseph Seals, a longtime city police detective. The ADL said in a statement it "wholeheartedly rejects and condemns" Terrell-Paige's comments in the strongest possible terms." The anti-hate organization said that Terrell-Paige's "lack of remorse or self-reflection following the incident has rendered her unfit to continue to serve on the Board of Education a body entrusted with modeling our shared values of diversity, tolerance, and inclusion for students in our local Jersey City public schools." Terrell-Paige also said that the Jewish "brutes" waved bags of money at black homeowners in Ward F, according to a report on NorthJersey.com, which showed a screenshot of the comments.

Pepe the Frog lives there too, as does "Kek," originally an inside joke from World of Warcraft that, by way of 4chan, now appears on banners stylized to look like Nazi flags at white nationalist rallies
