New Jersey as a whole just sucks. There is a whole lot of nonsense in the pipeline.. just either live in happy little New Jerseyland or get out, live somewhere else.
As to cops, bad cops etc.. yeah some cops really are some gung-ho jerks, perhaps overcompensating, but I'm not so certain fellow law enforcement would get them out.
Some to most cops are great and New Jersey is the problem. Get that mask ready.
Good to know. I agree that it is not hate speech. Then you should really look up Officer Sarah Erwin’s case. She was a police officer in Hopewell Township who was fired for posting on her personal Facebook her concern for her fellow officers heading into Trenton during the George Floyd protests (which had been violent in many other States, though I believe they turned out peacefully in NJ, not that she could have known that at the time) and her feelings on BLM, saying that they were terrorists who hated cops (and when there are videos of BLM protestors shouting that cops are pigs and to fry them like bacon, she doesn’t seem to be wrong, albeit generalizing). A Sergeant in Hopewell was demoted and placed on 6 months leave solely for liking the post.
It’s things like this that make me believe that the defined laws about hate speech are not going to be used against officers. Instead officers will be held to whatever feelings and opinions their superiors and/or the general public thinks. And that is wrong.
