I sincerely hope these cops stay on their toes, I really don't want to see another ambush like the Las Vegas one. RIP to the fallen officer, and condolences to his family, and friends. 

a street gang versus a police department.. yeah, i see that working out real well. Everyone knows the biggest and the most powerful gang is the Police Department.

The "Bloods" Have no chance against any of these officers and i hope they do not try anything because they Will Not Succeeded.

Gangs have bigger & better guns in most cases. Some even train to fight. In some cases your right but others you wrong.

Never underestimate your enemy.

 

I hope they get taken out like the street trash they are though, if they try anything.

Here is the thing, gangs (and any other suspect) has the element of surprise, a simple noise complaint or really any call where only one officer responds the gang has the upper hand. And it is not like the cops are going to start sending 3 squads to these routine calls, especially during peak call hours. This is why it is imperative that these officers (and all officers) are on their toes, and do not get complacent, no matter how the situation may seem. 

Good point!

That's the thing, gangs aren't restricted like police either. They don't care where they have to go to find a potential victim - in this case a peace officer.

Gangs have bigger & better guns in most cases. Some even train to fight. In some cases your right but others you wrong.

 

Not in most cases as far as the United States is concerned.

The Crips have offered to help the officers.

 

“Some wise old dude once said ‘the enemy of my enemy is my friend’. Will we are sworn enemies to the bloods. I admit we are not big fans of the cops, but hey blue is our color and pigs wear blue so that is the side we are backing in this war.”

 Lots of gang members are ex military, or in some cases ex LO. They have better guns, contrary to what desert lion said. Especially one of the biggest gangs. A shootout against uniforms, would end badly. This depends on how many gang members, though. A shootout against swat, sru, whatever it is in NJ would be better. Everything depends on the amount of gang members in the shootout though.

Now I understand your point, and I'm competent to the fact that gangs should not be underestimated. However, do you really believe that a gang could actually defeat law enforcement? Obviously it would all rely solely on the circumstances of the situation, but I have some pretty high faith in the Police. Worst case scenario, the National Guard will have armored vehicles rolling down the streets. And I seriously doubt that a gang would put up much of a fight against armored vehicles, even massive gangs such as the pathetic "Bloodz" or the retarded "Cripz".

If it was 2 gang members, then uniforms could take them down easily, but if its a riot of like 10+ gang members, with heavy weapons - thats a different story. Although SWAT/SRU whatever, would be called right away, and uniforms wouldnt have much involvement. Going with not underestimating gangs, I think a good fight would be put up. I dont think there will ever be a scenario where the guard will be called, they are practically military, and I think they are considered military. They dont have time for some city stuff like that, its not there problem.. Well thats my 2 cents.

This wouldn't be some gang v. cop gta style shootout... It would be an ambush. Gang members are not stupid, they will wait for the moment when they have the upperhand. Again, this is why I reiterate that these officers (And all LEO's) cannot get complacent, because a bad day in this business means death.

An ambush would lead to a shootout, they wont just get away, not like they want to. They will keep killing cops, but at that point swat would be on scene, depending on NJ regulations.

Think about the Dorner situation in LA not too long ago. They knew exactly who they were looking for, he was a single individual and he wasn't even hiding at first, just out in the open searching for cops by themselves. He lasted at least a week (if memory serves me right) before being found and killed. Yes, it did eventually end in a shootout, but not initially he caused significant damage. And that was when they knew exactly who they were looking for, now NJ is facing a gang - multiple people who can blend in when they want to and wait for the moment to strike. This is all worst case, hopefully the gang is just talking to gain some street cred and instill some fear in the LEO's.

What some of you are suggesting is ludicrous! Any gang versus Law Enforcement would not win! Yes a gang could ambush 1 or 2 officers because the bad guys are always gonna have the advantage but once that happens then your gonna have the Largest Gang in the world on your ass and they most likely are going to kill you. Now lets just say there's a large shootout with heavily armed gang members. Let me give you an example a year ago or so here in Florida there was a shootout between 2 biker gangs. Almost every Law Enforcement Agency in this region responded to that call. No officers where even hurt or targeted and the response was swift and heavy. Down here almost every uniformed officer/deputy is going to have a high powered rifle or a shotgun so they are gonna be pretty prepared. So if something like that happened anywhere in the US every cop that could get there would. Another example is the tragic situation that  just happened in California and that was 3 heavily armed gang members. Guess who won that battle? Law Enforcement, this isnt 1997, Law Enforcement learned alot after the North Holly Wood shootout and it shows.  

Now wait a bit, you really mean that somewhere in the most powerful country in the world with the great police system some bunch of outlaws may really start a GTA-style war with police? And this is happening in New Jersey, not somewhere in Nevada? God Lord, Wild Wild Wild East is here
