Not surprising that the NJ Staties wear these uniforms...

If you look in the background, they are in a cemetery.

That's their every day working uniform with jacket.

Every state has their own thing going, and NJ's is corruption. When you couple that with the level of mob influence they've had and you end up with a state wide attitude of over compensation that's hard to explain. There is also the rivalry with NY, which results in almost every NJ statute being written to be 'tougher' than whatever is on the books in NY.

There are other factors at work here, but I don't want to paint everyone with the same brush.
