Police State Threatens Waterfront Park

Some New Jersey legislators have decided to introduce a security bill that would restrict access along the Hudson River waterfront, reports Hoboken Now. The bill seeks to block public access to the waterfront areas near "critical infrastructures," but too vaguely defines restricted access and critical infrastructure, leaving open the possibility that unbuilt sections of the walkway may never be completed and the possibility of closures along the existing park. In Hudson county, only assemblyman L. Harvey Smith voted against the bill; the State Senate is yet to vote.
