These officers deserve the same help from the public that a civilian would deserve...[More]Well, first of all, they are civilians. Forgetting that seems one of the reasons we're in this home invasion police state mess we're in. And second, we see how helpful the New Jersey police establishment has been to citizens beset by violent crime--they insist on defenselessness. If anyone gave the officer the kind of help he really needed, none of this tip line after the crime nonsense, they'd have been setting themselves up to be arrested--maybe even by the person they saved.

About time someone brought it up... if you don't have a DD Form 2 of some sort, you're a civilian. Period. We used to refer to the "civilian police departments" that way for a reason....
