Lacey: Stafford Township Councilman George Williams, and NJ Freedom Fighter Alya Wolf join with Lacey’s Lakeside Diner to push back against Murphy’s executive order.
There was a freedom rally in the parking lot of The Lakeside Diner on Lacey Road in Lacey today. Dozens of residents and local supporters waved their flags and held up signs to stand in solidarity with owner Brian Brindisi’s decision to violate Governor Murphy’s executive order that prohibits indoor dining.
The Lakeside Diner offers both inside and outside seating. Inside, masks are optional. Spacing is also set between tables allowing for 6 feet social distancing. Temperature checks are taken upon entry, and staff are wearing masks.
So far, Brindisi has been charged with 10 violations, and Ocean counties Sheriff Deputies have changed the locks on the doors overnight. Brindisi said “I’m taking this virus seriously, but on the other hand, I’m also taking my business seriously.”
Among the crowd of people waving at beeping passing cars, was Stafford Township Councilman, George S. Williams.
Williams, when asked why he attended the rally, he said “We didn’t mind sitting for fifteen days to flatten the curve for everyone but, the Governor (Governor Murphy) is trampling on our constitutional rights, by determining what can and can’t be open.”
While Williams acknowledges the danger of the CoronaVirus, he insists that “We can’t have an economic collapse along with a health crisis.” As of noon, Williams was the only elected official present. I asked him what concerned citizens can do to change the Governor’s mind. “Come out and hold signs and flags, but more importantly, hold your local politicians, mayors, council representatives, freeholders, and hold congressman’s feet to the fire.” He challenged other elected officials to join him and said “once some people get elected, a large majority of these people are content on where they are at, and they don’t want to continue to help the people.”
Williams is an outspoken Trump supporter. He began his political career by volunteering for the Trump campaign in 2015. He and business partner Chris Molla, recently organized a pro Law enforcement/ Pro Trump Boat Parade in Barnegat Bay. The event attracted over 1200 boats. Another Parade is scheduled for September 5th at 10 a.m to support law enforcement officers and veterans at the mouth of the Toms River.
Another notable person in attendance was freedom fighting activist, Ayla Wolf.
Wolf says, “ Brian and his wife, the owners of Lakeside diner, are true American heroes. They are heroes for New Jersey and heroes for the country. They have been open for quite some time and the people of Ocean county support them, love them and are loyal to them. They opened with above and beyond safety protocols even though opening in New Jersey indoor restaurants has been deemed against the executive order. Small businesses cannot survive in New Jersey with the governor breaking the back of The American dream. The governor’s executive orders are criminal, and they are killing New Jersey and we need more heroes who are business owners to stand up and open against the tyranny of this dictator. We will all stand with Brian at Lakeside diner just as we stood with every other business owner that would probably open and just as we stand with every peaceful respectful protester since March. We stand with every patron who is brave enough to go to these businesses we stand with every warrior who is brave enough to stand out them and quiet solidarity we stand with every citizen that feels his duty and obligation is to come and defend business owners like Brian people exit exercising their First Amendment right like me and all the Warriors that come to Trenton come to point Pleasant that come to Middletown that burnt mess in front of Murphy’s house that far in December to keep our religious exemption. We need to stand together fight together and save New Jersey from the murderous Murphy who is decided he was going to kill the state and the economy not because he has any scientific basis to his criminal executive orders but because he’s decided that he has an agenda to keep us locked down and in fear until the election and a vaccine comes and he can mandate it or prevent us from doing anything without a certificate of vaccination. We all know that he wants to keep the fear at an all-time high because he does not want in person elections. And if he opens restaurants and gyms that he’ll have to let elections happen in person. This is about stealing an election, this is about Instituting mandates like vaccines and certificates or vaccination and moving us to a cashless society. The business owners are only collateral damage, and the virus is only a tool to get to this end.”

All of the restaurant owners should do this!
Lynda Lawrence-Clancy yes they should!
Murphy is a ????
Everyone needs to do this
All should hold rallys… Serve food and collect “donations”…. These restaurants/diners need to survive!!… Boardwalks are making money while all the local small restaurants struggle to stay afloat… It’s damn sad!!
How patriotic, not.
Anne Marie so let’s keep everything closed so more businesses close and more people lose jobs ????♂️????♂️????♂️????
Nope. Keep the restaurants opened up safely outside until things improve. Every restaurant I know of in NJ is doing it. Also people can do take out from the restaurants and support them that way too.
Anne Marie
Anne Marie Improve? There are 54 people hospitalized in the entire state ???? Jack ass
Anne Marie why don’t you give us your definition of ” things improve ” What is it gonna take. Zero cases of covid? You so know that there are cases of the bird flu still being reported after all these years. Are you waiting for a vaccine? Good luck with the side effects of that. Tell us what is an improvement. The flatten the line happens two months ago. Neighboring state are doing inside dinning without a problem. Tell us what is the solution for an improvement. Are you waiting for a politician to tell you how to live your life. Stop with the brainwashing and make a logical decision. Think for yourself.
Anne Marie patriotic?!? Well I’m sure your not one of them, I can guarantee your one who bows down to hitler our governor and I’m sure your not a business owner. Stay home and live your life in the bubble! #OPENUPNOW
It’s all bullshit Karen , but I’m sure your a Murphy lover so it would make sense .
Anne Marie dry up and blow away .
Dining outside doesn’t work in the winter. Fear is a virus.
Anne Marie really cause it looks like things have improved. What’s your excuse now?

I find this so unfair
He needs to be removed hes gotta be one of the worst governor of New Jersey has ever had Got To get Republican Vote Republican That’s time The people didn’t like crusty but I’ll tell you have been back here now
Joseph Clappsy Sr. He got in because he lied to pot heads that he would legalize weed in first 100 days. Fence sitters voted for him because of all Christys scandals not realizing just how awful he would be. I even heard one say he missed Christy!
@ Lisa Mullen Kam
That freedom fighter does the movement more harm than good with her foul mouth and inability to have a legit argument without cursing and screaming lol. All for the movement but what a bad choice of representation ha
yeah jump on the bandwagon now….mans been fighting the state on this for months…where were all you then?? Phony mother fuckers alls you are ….both of you’ze.
George Frncis we went out in June. Everything was so nice. They are very sweet people. They were so safe (if one is scared of the virus we personally aren’t).
George Frncis where YOU been ?
Stand up
I only got three words….

Jen Andzeski hahahhaah yes! It does!! Lmao
tyrant Murphy is a horse’s ass !!
Thomas Calvanese don’t hold back please tell us how you really feel about him!
Funny you can go to the casinos, sickening
Pat Grady Rahtjen Well, that doesn’t make it right.
Pat Grady Rahtjen no eating or drinking inside of the casinos currently, so bad example, unfortunately.
Keri Hall you can drink inside. They allow you to lift mask real quick
Defeats the whole purpose
Alexx Klinger Still not enough to get me and my coworkers back to work there.
Keri Hall agreed
Was just saying they take all these precautions yet you can lift your mask
Guess the state needs their monies so its allowed
Alexx Klinger agreed. Guarantee that any building has a UV cleaning system in the HVAC installation and then maybe we can look to forging ahead with a reopening plan.
Who voted for this steaming pile of crap murphy?
Where is the Lacey Mayor and council? Where is Senator Connors?
Mike Passeri Lacey mayor refused to board them up!
I don’t understand how people think indoor dining is a good idea right now. The virus didn’t just vanish because you want it to. I get that they need to pay their bills but Is it really worth the possibility of having their business shut down and losing everything? Are they at least keeping customers at tables 6 feet apart?
Nicole Dee yes they are. They’ve been open for months. No cases have been traced to the diner. Instead of using their system as a model the tyrant wants them closed. Sad.
There could have been cases but they don’t want to admit it. I don’t trust people. I wish there was an easy solution to all of this. I use Grubhub and Doordash to help some businesses.
Respectfully, if you are not comfortable going to an indoor restaurant, don’t! Some of us are comfortable enough with the fading china virus enough to go get some eggs and bacon.
Nicole Dee yes, other states have dine in with social distance and employees wear mask, it’s perfectly doable. Besides, the proximity to other people is way worse at Walmart or Wawa and other packed stores than with your own private dining party who lives with you any way. Everyone just needs to use a little common sense in whatever we are doing.
It’s ok for the students and teachers to eat inside schools. Therefore it should be ok to eat inside a restaurant.
Nicole Dee There could have been cases in the places you order through Grubhub and Doordash from and they were kept quiet? Could have been, would have been prove nothing.
Alya Wolf
I have no problem with this diner whom cares about there customers maybe the stool pigeons or Murphy should go to Walmart and checkout the self service check outs considering multi people use them there is 10 self checkouts and only2 cashiers with 20 people on each line and no one is wiping the machines after using self service Walmart is not concerned about anyones wellbeing just your money.
I stand with you also!!!
Morgan
I can accept the Burning Looting and murdering but this guy has gone too far if he thinks he can make breakfast without the kings permission!!!
Let them be already
Love your shirt
Of your scared of a virus with a 95% chance that you won’t get it then you just stay home let everyone else get back to business , this is all political now and the governor of this state sucks ass .
Why aren’t they wearing masks?
Daniela Poveda ask Murphy
Daniela Poveda if he’s Garbage This Guy is a piece of ????
Because they are not sheep!!! Masks do absolutely NOTHING!!
Proud to see your Standing up for your Rights as an American and it’s Disgusting what the Democrat Governor is doing to our State ????
Where is State Senator Connors, Assemblyman Rumpf and Assemblywoman Gove? They should be camped out there! Have not heard a word from these 3.
