Sept 2nd
Judy and I went to the beach today and witnessed TOO much! A group of boys were drinking a whole bottle of liquor and then going swimming. To make matters worse, one tookout a wad of cash and gave each of his friends a doller. They then proceeded to roll pot ? in the dollars and then smoke it. Judy and I saw that there was a park police car about 50 feet behind us so that was our que to leave and speak with the cop. We walked up to the car and the cop was speaking to a lifeguard. They wouldn't acknowledge that we were standing there until Judy said HEY! We told them everything that we saw and pointed out the kids. The response that we got was pretty surprising. The cop told us that 3/4's of the kids on the beach are drunk or high or both and then laughed. We left because he obviously didn't care. We kept turning around as we were walking away to see if he was going to do anything. NOPE! They just resumed talking! UNBELIEVABLE!
Wow....I live in a resort area in the most southern part of New Jersey and they would never have gotten away with that stuff on our beaches...they asses would be in the cop car and heading to the local jail where they would stay until a judge set bail. They would have ended up with jail time and somewhere around a $1,000 fine.
ReplyDeleteI was to Jones Beach years ago to see Pearl Jam in concert and love the place and the concert area...thankfully none of that business went on when we were there, or at least didn't see it.
