Jersey cops drive nice cars (and are way too busy showing them off)

I went out with the family on Black Friday to get Christmas deals just like we do every year. On our way out of the mall there was a black Cadillac stopped at a pedestrian crosswalk and the guy inside was shooting the shit with some other guy in another car. Probably talking about how cool his car was.

As soon as my wife started to walk into the crosswalk with the stroller in front of her, the guy pulled forward without even looking around. Crazy Jerk. Turns out he was an undercover cop who insincerely apologized. What the hell? He said “I have trouble seeing in this thing.” Really? He did look like the main character from The Incredibles – big man in a little car, hunched over the steering wheel. My wife sure let him have it too. She rocks.

So that pissed me off, but what pisses me off even more is that New Jersey cops are out buying brand new Cadillacs for their undercover vehicles thinking that they might fool people, yet New Jersey’s budget was so messed up this year that everyone was asked to cut back their spending – $600 million dollars is going to be taken away from ‘undisclosed’ areas of the budget. Stupid government spending. And Stupid government employees.
