Wildwood Crest - I saw more tactical vests on our officers at Seafarers Celebration. I didn't realize we had threats at the festival. I guess this is what our town has come to. Did I miss something? Are we under attack? I know it's for protection and I get that but for the past 100 years, our cops didn't look like soldiers. Kind of takes away from the approachability. Next, we will see machine guns strapped to their backs.
