not an illegal? do we go after his landlord? where are all the illegals landlord bashers now?
What’s with the unedited article here? Too many mistakes here.
How is it possible for a Black Male to wear a Black Male?
Meanwhile, Crime and Mayhem are rapidly spinning out of control in Lakewood. Time to call in the NJSP.
Perhaps the Lakewood PD might consider forming an Auxiliary like the NYPD has.
Or how about parking all those patrol cars that just sit in the lot all over town?
To Zev; what would the njsp do exactly?? We have a fantastic police force. We have to have more education in the school system about the stupidity of crime. When he gets caught he will sit for 2-3 years. Was it really worth the $400 dollars?
#4 Yes, kudos to the Lakewood PD, but they are understaffed and as the crime rate shows, they are slowly becoming mission incapable. Once again, parking all those idle Police Cars that just sit in the lot, around town would provide a deterrent. Also making the Shift Changes more random will help. Random patrols by the Ocean County Sherrif, Fire Marshall and the NJSP will also tend to deter criminal activity. Also cops need to begin “Walking the Beat” again.
