Camden, NJ laying off half its cops
[link to www.cnbc.com]

And Newark laid off 167 out of 800 or so.

[link to www.businessweek.com]

Jersey City is losing 80+.

I listened to the hearings a little last night and every single one of those Camden cops plans to take their family and flee the city.

Earlier this year AC laid off 17 but was able to hire them back.

But poor Camden, what are we going to do with Camden? Set up a perimeter?

guess it's no surprise crime is sky high and the average house price is 50k. Sorry to sound racist, but as a whole certain races do increase crime and drag down the standard of living, and it's not because of racist old whitey either.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 904454

It wasn't the fact that it was a white city then because it actually wasn't nor has it ever been really. It was because there was an incredible amount of work in the city due to may factories being up and running. Campbells soup is really the only big operation left from those days. The factories all closed up, got bought out, merged with someone else or just died off and nothing replaced them. That combined with the Philadelphia mafia dumping tons of drugs in the city and you have what you have decades later. Learn your facts before you make it a race thing dum dum.

Well since I live about 15 minutes from Camden, worked in the city for a decade, a SJ native all my life and have actually helped organize community events there, this isn't denial, it's the history of the town, period. Go race bait somewhere else. Plus, technically since it has been proven beyond a doubt that the drugs truly started in Camden thanks to the efforts of the Philly mafia, 10 minutes away on the other side of the Ben Franklin and Walt Whitman bridges, it would appear that some wonderful white people had a big hand in helping make it the cesspool it is. Those are facts, from a white man. Any more intelligent input or do you still want to argue your useless point?

Bottom line is we are all human beings and we all basically want and need the same things. if I remove the water or oxygen from this planet, your color would have no effect on your ability to survive. Grow up kid.

Re: Camden, NJ laying off half its cops
Sad for Camden and Newark too.

I spent two summers in Camden in HS doing community service and I can't imagine a place more beat down. Back then there were a few good citizens - seniors - I'm sure they are dead now.

I feel bad for Pennsauken, South Orange ... all the neighboring cities as well.

You are totally right.

Camden is so stuck in cyclical poverty and crime. The people who live there don't have grocery stores or banks. OR cars. Holes open up in the roads and no one even puts up a cone. The people who go there to buy drugs are not black.

Our Lady of Lourdes is a wonderful hospital. St. Joseph's always did great work.

It's a shame we can't take care of this teeny city - it's got such a small footprint.

Re: Camden, NJ laying off half its cops
I'm from Newark (Ironbound) and the place has turned into a shithole once again.

Believe it or not, Newark was the place to go, after hours, back in the 40's and 50's. It was the 3rd largest seaport, founded in 1666.

Camden, like planet of the apes.

Sadly, black women got rooked and had to be strong after the scam the government pulled on them in the 60's with affirmative action and welfare. It made it so that it was better for their community not to be married to reap the benefits and it just broke up the family unit and community further.

Then you have the Jew scumlord landlords who keep them there. Sad that there were no strong black leaders to buy all of that prime real estate (Detroit, Camden, Newark, etc.) and turn it around buy taking advantage of all of the programs that were supposedly in place for the disadvantaged and minorities. Kick the Jews out and make it a Black Utopia.

I think Bill Cosby had much to say about his own, as have many others... but then, they can all drop the N word all they want to make their point. Howard Stern often went off on this hypocracy.

It's cold and flat but no crime and decent amount of work. Almost all white. Black men are just more aggressive then white men and don't seem to have any problem with using violence at the drop of a hat, and it's more of a cultural thing, since not all blacks act like this, it's just the way the ghetto, rap culture is.
