[-YYZ-]

Cops are a bunch of pussies these days when it comes to any perceived risk, doubly so where female officers are involved.

Women cops HAVE TO use force because bad guys are not intimidated by females. Then, the new level of force spreads to the male cops.

Just imagine the changes that will come to combat when women officially join in.

[Bubba Ho-Tep]

I don’t believe women should be LEO’s period, because they all seem to have an attitude that isn’t good when you have a lethal weapon at your disposal.

Right, and we all know male cops never have an attitude.

[Ransomed]

If I recall, that is exactly what happens, male cops then using force against threats/non-compliance they perceive to women cops. The police forces with the most black males had the lowest rate of use of force, the implication being they are more intimidating and likelier to be obeyed.

It’s a basic fear of failure. If a woman has to have physical contact, she is going to lose.

And, then Obama says the white cops are racist even though it is really about women feminizing the job.

She murdered him, and that’s all you can say?

[Svartalfiar]

Women shouldn’t be cops, period. For far more reasons than just this incident.

I went to a couple police tryouts a couple years ago. I think there was one female who was in decent enough shape to have maybe been worth pushing farther down the testing/interviews. One short chick there had massive boobs/short arms, so during the pushups testing she could barely lower herself before she was supported by her boobs. And of course, the testing officer counting could only stare and count every single one as good.

I've noticed a lot of guy cops with that very same attitude.

[equaviator]

Awww, she’s probably somebody’s aunt.

[Balding_Eagle]

This is the kind of stuff I was talking about on the other thread.

[duffee]

Nothing to be sorry about, I was just piling on to your sarcasm.

[Oztrich Boy]

I heard he was jerking her around after she tased him and told him not to move.

“Right, and we all know male cops never have an attitude.”

That’s a separate issue, but most of them do have an “attitude” and that’s due to their training. Seems as though to “control a situation,” you need to be a complete a$$hole, or at least that’s how it comes through to me. Somehow, it’s “too hard” to develop a demeanor that allows you to command the respect of the citizens. If you have the ability to command respect, you don’t need to be an a$$hole. When I look at these college-age male animals at spring break, I say to myself, there’s the next crop of cops. Classy guys, some of whom will kill themselves on their way home from a titty bar like the two cops in NJ last week, and maybe that will happen before the get to bag their first citizen!

Okay, I see where she could have taken “affirmative action”. However, Affirmative Action shouldn’t save her from prison.
