Belmar's mayor said he's sorry for disparaging comments that he made in the town's July 4 newsletter.

Holy Christ on the stick, does anyone have a sense of humor anymore. Do people really need to get their panties in a twist each and every time something so silly is said? Personally speaking, let the Jersey Shores stay NY free, they are overcrowded as it is.

Speaking as someone who has to take care of these people after they've been injured (or have injured themselves) or drank themselves comatose, I have to say that the Mayor of Belmar is dead-on correct.

Hey all, Im a resident of S.I. who was raised in J.C. and bayonne too (yes im a benny). But the mayor was absolutley correct. These big-mouth guidos should here the truth. I like living in S.I. but as a cop here i had my fair share of run-ins. They are lo-class trouble makers who change the tough guy act fast when a 6'4 pollack from the Montgomery projects in jersey city challenges them. Belive me. So bellmar people, remember. When a guido talks s***, just step over to them stare,give a smile and the ol' fashion jersey four knuckle happy tap to their greasball face. Just dont mess da' hair..Yoo..!

The mayors intelligence is receding as fast as his hairline.What an ass-hole.Why don't he comment on the actions of all the drunks urinating in the streets during St.Paddy's day.
What a jerk.

The Mayor is correct.

Those lo-class,racist trouble making MFs from Staten Island, Brooklyn and Queens are the sons and daughters of NYPD officers.

They are almost as bad their lo-class,uneducated trouble making parents.

Mayor Pringle needs to be wise when making a comment. He should have used better judgement. he though he would be funny. Well I am not laughing. Mayor Bloomberg of NY would have never made a commment like that cause he is more intelligent than Pringle. If you don't like Staten Island then keep your comments to yourself. I have nothing against NJ but since some of you agree with Pringle then lets just say That some jersey people need to be better educated like pringle. So Pringle will raise his kids to hate Staten Island. Very Good Mayor Pringle. teach your children well. Your apology is not accepted cause the damage has been done and Mayor pringle has already caused problems between Staten Island and jersey residents. be proud of Pringle NJ. But NJ must love Staten Island. How many jersey automoblies I see come to Gateway Park in Staten Island. Like I said, be proud of Mayor Pringle. He is real role model for all to look up to.
