True but I would like to hear the rest of the story before deeming them bad cops.
Being polite and respectful when dealing with law enforcement goes a long way. During my interactions with police over the years, I've gotten away with speeding, running stop signs, even with an open beer container in my car, all because I knew to be polite, respectful and keep my mouth shut. Even this young woman conceded in the article that they were willing to let her walk away (even though she was underage and had alcohol).
But then she decided to mouth off. Couldn't just walk away and get on with her weekend, could she?
Asking a cop “don’t you have something better to do?” is now grounds for an arrest? Wow.
What law, exactly, is that? Has freedom of speech been suspended in New Jersey??
