Women can be successful and accomplished in many professions; being a front-line cop is not one of them.

I will confess that after a 25 year LEO career there are women who can do the job and do it well. Maybe 5% of the population but I got to work with some of the best.

I would rather have a partner who is a tough azz lesbian who can talk like a sailor because I know she will jump right in if I'm getting a beat down.

The girly woke men I worked with were useless, scared and indecisive. A danger to themselves and me.

Their not all lesbians buy many are. Not the man hating type but the type that just like hanging around men and be one of the boys.

They are particularly helpful when you have a female suspect who's being a aggressive, non compliant bitcX. They have no problem smacking the piss shnit out of them. Which is something us men are reluctant to do.

Too bad her daddy still wanted a boy.

” I guess she was out the day they taught about the Tueller Drill.”

I learned the drill from a female officer whose face was a mass of scars she got from her lesson in letting people get too close.

I don’t think it’s so much the caliber in this case. Even a semi well placed round from a 9 can easily be fatal or at least debilitating. And were talking “Multiple rounds”? Look at the man standing in court in the pic. The suspect standing in court, he certainly does not look like he was just shot, “Multiple times”.

My guess in this case is the female cop allowed the armed suspect to get way too close to her, at which point she fired from a compromised position, after the suspect took the hammer to her, getting off a couple of desperate wild shots that barley grazed the suspect.

Must have violated the 21 foot rule. I hope she fully recovers, but sadly this again exposes the Hollywood lie of females beating the crap out of thugs. By the way, is the perp out on bail yet?

Why do these rank and file Democrats hate women so much?

I think she shot several times but missed them all.

Why did she fail to protect herself, i.e. shoot the perp?!

They are probably now trained not to shoot black people for any reason. Even if you believe your life is in danger.

9mm can definitely kill, even if they weigh 350 pounds.

The question is how long before they are incapacitated.

The reason why the FBI went away from the 9mm originally is because of the Miami Shootout, where one of the perps had non-survivable wounds, but in the meantime killed two FBI agents, and wounded several more.

I have been referring to this specific case not overall statistics regarding weapon calibers.

Again, with the suspect appearing in court looks completely unscathed, that clearly tells me these were not well placed shots. I think that’s pretty obvious in this case.

Given the video, this looks like several centre mass shots from where the gun was pointed when fired.

If the suspect was hit center mass with one round and or “multiple rounds” I’m really confident he would not be standing up in court in that pic. In fact, I’d bet good money on it.

watch in slow mo, 1/2 speed.

There are some misses but appear to be MULTIPLE center mass hits.

You just won’t accept the possibility that it is not enough caliber.

Yes, she should have had that gun out the second she saw the hammer. That’s why they call it the equalizer.

No, I don’t believe the t-shirt wearing suspect was hit center mass, basically *point blank* with a 9mm. Not buying that.

If that were the case, I’m pretty sure he’d be dead on in a hospital. I’m pretty sure his chest is not made of steel or Kevlar. Did the 9 bounce off the center of his chest? Possible, but I would certainly doubt that to be the case.

well, people can watch the video, esp slo mo, and make their own judgement.

The report was multiple gunshot wounds, and I’d say she got 4 hits out of 6 all of which look to be gun pointing at center mass

Four 9mm rounds, some allegedly point blank to center mass? And the suspect is standing on his on accord in court a couple days later? lol..

Not buying it, no sale. I’ll wait to see if they ever decide to reveal where the suspect was shot and what the extent of his injuries were.

Lack of swift incapacitation is the problem.

This officer got shot 4 times with 9mm, and ran back to his cruiser.

But I don’t think he was ready for a court appearance a few days later.

Btw, found this and this is the only report I have seen to even remotely discuss the suspect injuries. To me this does not jive with "Multiple rounds" to the suspect's center of mass. That's no bueno.

It’s believed the detective hit Tate multiple times, but he didn’t suffer serious injuries, according to the Daily Mail.
