Eileen Hart and her husband, Keith, are property owners in Newfield, New Jersey.
On Saturday, March 9 there was an informal meeting at the Gloucester Community Center, to discuss the findings on “revaluations” by Appraisal Systems, Inc.- a company which has been contracted by the state of New Jersey- to assess the fair market property values for each county or borough- for the tax assessor’s offices.
There has been much derision caused by these “revaluations” by homeowners, because property values have fallen dramatically- and the real estate market has been hit very hard . There is nothing “fair” about the market or the home values that have been assessed, according to many New Jersey families.
Ms. Hart attended the meeting, armed with- as she said “her Constitution and the facts.”
Said Hart “I tried to express my opinion and tell them that my Constitutional rights had been violated. I began quoting the Constitution, line by line.
Ms. Hart tried to explain, that Appraisal Systems, Inc. was attempting to inspect her property without her husband being present. As an Orthodox Jew, this is against the tenets of her religion. Her husband had to be present. According to Ms. Hart, she was unable to express this concern.
A representative of Appraisal Systems, Inc. –(<List of Appraisal System Employees at this link) apparently took offense to her objections and brought in Robyn Glocker-Hammond, the Tax Assessor – who stated that her job was to “enforce the law.”
(This writer was under the impression that Tax Collectors collected taxes. They are NOT “law enforcement.” But then, I am not a Tax Collector in New Jersey. )
Relates Hart: “She also wouldn’t let me speak and told me to sit down and shut up and listen as well. That’s when the young man came toward me. I knew he was going to put his hands on me. I saw him out of the corner of my eye. I said to him “Don’t you dare touch me.” Then they threw us out of the auditorium. The young man from Appraisal Systems, Inc. was the one going postal, and I believe if HE HAD A GUN, he would have shot me, Keith and Khloe on the spot. I was calm the entire time.”
When the Harts left the gathering, they were followed into the parking lot of the community center, and the same young man who had been so upset by Ms. Hart’s comments in the community center, started screaming and shouting at her, took down the license plate number of her vehicle and said – “See if you are able to pay your property taxes NOW!”
Eileen didn’t understand what that shouted threat meant, until she returned to her home with her family.
When they arrived, there were 5 police cars from the Franklinville Police Department. They advised her that the Clayton Police wanted to talk to her about the allegations.
States Hart “For the record, both the police officers DID acknowledge that it was “an allegation.”
Her purse was taken from her and she was put into a “paddy wagon,” transported to the police station-
Her young daughter witnessed the events and was traumatized to see her mother being treated like a common criminal.
She was arrested and booked for “terroristic threats” and “contempt.”
At the police station, she was handcuffed to a chair.
The cops ran a background check- and it revealed that she had absolutely NO criminal record. It also showed that she was the lawful owner of two hand guns. She was advised to turn in the guns over to the court (surrendered or confiscated) – and they would be held for “safe keeping.” If she did not- she was told by the police- her bail would be VERY high. And- if she could not make the bail- she would sit in the county jail until an unknown date.
The complaint (in part) states: The State of New Jersey vs. Eileen B. Hart -“The Defendant was yelling and screaming and making the threatening comment. “If the door is locked. I’ll be back with a gun.”
Ms. Hart denies she ever made this statement, as does her husband, Keith. However, this is how the complaint was written up by Clayton County Sergeant J. Dick- who, it may be noted, was not present during the meeting.
She surrendered her guns and was released on her own recognizance.
This is not America, ladies and gentleman.
This is TYRANNY.

My Fellow Americans:
I moved here to Nazi-Jersey some years ago, and found out only afterwards what a corruption ridden, truly criminal state this place is.
The entire state should be fenced off, all the liberals, democrats, communists, politicians and cops should be made to live here,… and then used as the nations Cess-pool and Land-Fill for toxic waste.
It is the only reasonable use left for this state.
Given NJ history for the American Revolution, it is a crying sham what the pyscho, criminals in government and communists have done to this state.
As for the Harts,… their troubles and costs have only just begun….
I’m betting after another month or two of the harrasement, illegal treatment, and exhorbinent out of pocket costs they are going to recieve from the criminal courts here,…. there is about to be another patriot family bourne into our ranks.
Welcome to Nazi-Jersey (punch to the head…)
JD – US Marines – NJ is the ideal poster child to represent everything that is WRONG with this country and government.
“The entire state should be fenced off, all the liberals, democrats, communists, politicians and cops should be made to live here,… and then used as the nations Cess-pool and Land-Fill for toxic waste.”
You might as well let goose turd wearing Israelis move into New Jersey as well JD, this way we can keep a close eye. Save us a couple billion a month. Maybe save the world from a Goddamn cluster f#@k in the middle east. LOL…. We would have to castrate them all first of course.
Hey Mark and JD, quick and easy castration idea. Nutsack nailed to a stump then pushed over backwards. lol Millard
