What a piece of work you are. Sorry, but if anyone comes across as a gigantic douche with a chip on his shoulder, it's you. It's no wonder you have trouble with law enforcement. Your arrogant, ignorant opinions are based on nothing but projection and compensation issues and straw man nonsense. With around a million LE officers just in the in the US, you admittedly rationalize your blindly bigoted generalizations with nothing but BS supposed stories from one person that you obviously interpreted exactly the way you wanted to hear them, if they happened at all. That's just idiotic, but predictably, according to you it's OTHER people who "aren't that bright". Right. Get some self-awareness, counseling, meds, all of the above, or whatever you need to get over your misdirected adolescent anger issues before you transfer them to that poor kid, assuming it's not too late.

One thing I have noticed, cops back east and in the south are way bigger sticklers for things like license plate obstruction. Things like that in Southern California wouldn't get a look from a cop.
Anyone who suggests that there aren't cops sitting on the side of the road in NJ, with the sole purpose of issuing traffic tickets, is in fantasyland.
The flip side of the argument is that they are specifically tasked with the assignment. So, I GUESS they aren't being giant BAGS OF DOUCE on their own. But lets be real. Most medium to large departments have traffic enforcement units.

Is this serious? Are you angrily suggesting police do not hide in hard to see spots to catch people speeding? They just so happen to be parked in those places to fill out reports??
What a joke. Or maybe I am just too stupid to realize that the car dealership on Rt. 10, tucked in between the other cars, is the best place to fill out reports late at night by my house. Pure coincidence that he is in there with his lights off and impossible to see. And he must have an awful lot of reports to fill out, because he sure is in there a lot -- like every night.
What a foolish argument. Everyone, in every town in New Jersey, knows spots where troopers and local police hide and set up radar. Heck, the troopers do that move where they sit on the shoulder with the trunk deck open so you can't see its a police car, and they are out of the car with the handheld. They sure as shit aren't filling out reports with a handheld radar gun. There is no argument here.
The guy is an idiot. He must be a local traffic cop. The beautiful part is that he's all pissy about being called out, and not worshipped like the Rambo that he thinks he is.
A quick google search reveals they have county police departments and some cities have their own. In NJ every two bit berg has its own. In my travels there, I did notice way fewer cops, but that is basically everywhere besides NJ, maybe CT is an exception.
Yeah but they chose that. I remember kids in HS who wanted to be local cops because the biggest area crimes were speeding and underage drinking and you get paid more than a 21 year old with a college degree to do it in many cases.
I went on a ride along once that I won at a silent auction. I was shocked how much area this guy had to cover. He said it was because many of his coworkers were at Dodgers Stadium for the game. If I ever wanted to rob a bank, it would be then.
I'm not sure I understand the relevance of college degree in the thread.
And most cops these days have an associates at a minimum.
And no, you don't chose to get assigned to the traffic unit in most departments.
But I do agree with you on small departments having PDs that are revenue generators.

Well athletes and actors have some kind of talent. I don't think these small town cops have talent, or skills from degrees or training. They ended up where they are because of a lack of that. 2 years at CC is not much education especially now and it's likely in criminal justice not one of the many skills we need people to have these days.
My point is- when you sign up...err when you get that connection from a relative....to be a small town Jersey cop, it's not because you have a conception of justice or want to keep anyone safe. It's because you want a cushy job that the rest of us pay for and get made less safe by when we feel like we have to go unsafely low speed limits (25 mph on many state and county roads) to avoid financial sanctions.
People who want to protect America join the military, or to really protect families from danger, join the Newark, Camden, Paterson, et al, PDs. I would love to see the raises from the small town cops who already get paid more shift to the guys keeping crack heads away from school children in Camden. That's a job that I admire.
