First northern state to do so.  I have difficulty understanding what these resolutions accomplish.  Perhaps New Jersey should apologize for being New Jersey - past, present and future.  Now, then, it's 5:30 and I need the coffee.

  Since New Jersey recently abolished the death penalty, maybe they can apologize to all that have been executed there since 1683. It might make the legislators feel better. ("Forgive us- Bruno Hauptmann."  :shock: )

Basecat,

I did not, I repeat, did not laugh at Connyankee's post.

I might have smiled a bit...

Being the prototypical cynical NJan, am sure this was released when it was to sorta hide the fact that our Governor feels the only way to fix NJ budget woes, is raise tolls here.  If I am still around in 2025, and wish to go to the NJ shore, Round trip will cost me $65. 

And no...I am not kidding.

Maybe NJ will apologize to your GGGGG Grandkids. I think you'll (they'll) deserve it.
