New Jersey State Police are investigating after reports that a 20-year veteran officer has a large Nazi "Blood & Honor" tattoo on his neck. For those unfamiliar, I present to you the New Jersey State Police uniform.
@chadloder looks like the Hugo Boss SS uniform in different colors 🤣
@chadloder I could almost immediately hear them saying, "papers, please?"

@chadloder
Yup, they're dressed like Nazis.

For those of you unfamiliar, I present the Nazi SS uniform.

@azcoigreach @chadloder technically the one on the left is the Heer uniform. They wore the eagle over their right breast, the SS and Waffen-SS wore it on the left sleeve.
@chadloder You get lost and storm Poland ONE TIME and all of a sudden people think you're Nazis.
@chadloder Like in a dystopia like nightmare

@chadloder what the hell

if I wasn't told I'd assume they were weird larper reenactors not state cops

@chadloder this can’t be serious…
@chadloder
I like the style:
@Americanist4u @chadloder He dreams of his life as a black uniformed SS Reichsfuhrer, his collar trimmed in silver.
@pattykimura @chadloder
Oligarchs like to embrace fascism; in his case he promotes and funds it.
@chadloder Gee, that’s subtle. On a positive note, their lapel patches look like hazmat warning labels.
@chadloder I thought it couldn't be that bad, so I went and did an image search. Fuck, it's that bad. All the images.
@chadloder
Now, that's a tough wank.

@chadloder

Ok, this is April 3, so not a joke.

Does anyone still wonder why Black men run like hell when they get pulled over for breathing?

@chadloder Hugo Boss designed those uniforms?
@chadloder A fine example for all State Police to follow. Might as well admit up front that they think they own us.
@chadloder Edit: i want to share this, but i felt the need to add CW's because of my *personal* boundaries.
@queerqueenqueef I'm following the trigger warning policies of the instance I'm on
@chadloder i wasn't saying you were breaking any rules, i shared it as i shared it out of personal boundaries. I'll edit my toot in order to be clearer that you did nothing wrong
@queerqueenqueef oh it's ok, sorry if i came off as defensive!
@chadloder I honestly thought it a Wehrmacht uniform
@chadloder One look at that and I hear the "Horst-Wessel-Lied" playing…
@chadloder I swear to fucking Christ we ended up in the Veep Extended Universe at some point.
@chadloder FWIW I grew up in NJ across the street from an actual so-crazy-you-can't-make-it-up cop + Nazi who wasn't hiding it at all. Not the same dude, but not surprised to see it.
@chadloder I was like wait a minute, really? But then I compared with images of SS uniforms and holy shit. The resemblance has to be intentional.
@Green_Footballs In the pitch meeting: "OK, but we'll replace the insignias with stylized traffic cones. No one will notice."
@chadloder Looks like they've updated it to "Blood and Honor and Meatball Sandwiches"
@chadloder It's clear that very few, if any, of the people responding to this post have had any interactions with the NJ State Police.
@chadloder
Oh my I would hide for years in a cellar if I glimpsed those gentlemen approaching...
@carlosenog
@chadloder Jodhpurs with a high visibility stripe. Guess that makes them the not-so-secret police.
many local buyers in New York prefer west-facing apartments, because the golden eyes at sunset are really charming. Coupled with the view of the Hudson River, the whole person is ecstatic and relaxed. This 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom property covers an area of 294 square meters, with views of Central Park and the beautiful sunset of the Hudson River. #property #NewYork #CentralPark #Manhattan #Investment #RealEstate #Apartment #LuxuryHouse #HighEnd
@chadloder
They are dressed very similarly to the Gestapo. Psychology suggests if you dress similarly, you have a tendency to act out in a similar fashion. Good luck Jersey.
@chadloder I think the Sam Brown adds an attractive touch.

@chadloder

Tell me this is not true?

@chadloder The tattoo thing I get but the uniform thing may be a bit misguided. The uniforms are very much like the uniforms worn by police and militaries around the world starting about a century ago, give or take a decade.
@chadloder
They say style is everything.

@chadloder
How tf is this permited?!

They look like rejects from a B movie!

@chadloder Wow, most police forces did away with the Sam Browne belt as the chest strap made it easy for criminals they were tussling with to grab and and swing the cop around.

@chadloder

Pretty on the nose..

I'm guessing they haven't changed their uniform since the 30s because a lot of the highway patrols looked like that then.. A lot of places changed them after WW2 but not NJ...

@chadloder Yikes. I suggest they start their Nazi search by looking at the people who submitted and approved that uniform design.
@chadloder Just looked them up on Wikipedia they made Trump an honorary Trooper and awarded him badge no 45. Figures they'd where Nazi style uniforms!
@chadloder
Cop uniforms should be pink, tbh. Nobody should join the police to fit in at a neonazi rally.
@chadloder Have you sued to challenge Twitter ban?
