The Lakewood Township Committee has passed a resolution condemning the group “Rise Up Ocean County” as a hate group.
The group has been using Facebook and other social media outlets to vilify the growing Orthodox Jewish community in Lakewood, posting videos and images depicting the Jewish community in a bad light and making accusations of corruption against the Jewish activists in town.
The resolution was passed unanimously with Mayor Ray Coles emphasizing that hate has no place in Ocean County.
