These cops were jerks. You were right to move out of traffic. I've literally had a car hit me and take off while a cop witnessed it (Lyndhurst, big surprise) and he told me to go file a report. He wouldn't pull the person over, he was on a gabbagool break.

Camden police told me to fuck off and stop wasting their time after they refused to do anything when I was in a hit and run. The response I got at the station was "well, your car's fine if you got here, and you're standing up, so you're not hurt. What do you want me to do about it?"

My car was stolen in Hoboken and the cops insisted that if I didn’t see somebody steal it I have no proof it was stolen. It was just a “missing” car...

It’s still missing to this day, 10 years later.

I've had Hoboken police tell me how they've been informed to juke the stats like that, and I've had old family tell me it's longstanding. Ever since ~2000 they want to pretend there's no crime there and it is a post-grad playground.

If they didn't take your statement and file a report, you could've sued the department.

"Oh this? This isn't stolen cash. It is missing cash that happened to find."

Some people I was friends with went to Camden to sell a quad, got ran up on by 2 people with a gun while showing the initial person the bike, bike gets stolen, friends call cops and the cops go 'you guys sound white, what are you doing out here trying to sell a bike' and that was that

That's their fucking problem not yours. They dont have to agree with you. Who cares what they think? They don't make the laws and they aren't judges. Although they often think they're both.

Lyndhurst and Woodland Park cops are more useless than Uvalde cops
