The Collingswood (NJ) Police Department posted a statement to its official Facebook account last Monday after the Haunted Hayride in Knight Park, New Jersey had to be shut down after hundreds of juveniles swarmed the attraction.

For the safety of those in attendance, the decision was made to shut down the hayride and manage the crowd. Police officers, event organizers and mutual aid officers escorted families away while addressing the individuals involved in the altercations. While doing so, police received a report from a Wawa location "involving 50-70 juveniles taking over a store."

Authorities wrote that responding officers found the group of juveniles "stealing items and causing a disturbance." The convenience store was closed "to prevent further damage and theft."

While managing the situation at Wawa, officers received a request for assistance from the remaining officers at Knight Park. Upon arriving at the park, authorities said they found a group of about 80 juveniles "engaged in a massive fight and were met with resistance from youths punching, kicking and pushing past the officers to continue fighting."

“authorities...were met with resistance from youths punching, kicking and pushing past the officers to continue fighting.”

That WaWA will be closed permanently just as 7/11 is closing 444 stores in “challenging” areas.

These “youth” have no respect for law or law enforcement and know if they’re caught and hauled in, they will face no consequences.

Yet when Trump says he’ll call out the National Guard to restore and keep order in case of violent riots, he’s called every name for fascist and Nazi and accused of “unleashing the US military on American Citizens.”

I am so thankful there is little diversity where I live. They are importing squatty illegals from Central America (not speaking Spanish but one of the native dialects) but they keep to themselves.
