God bless you Jeanne!
Those of you talking about her being hot, in calendars, etc. - SHUT UP!!!
She is a Christian lady who deserves a lot more respect than this.

"I saw him coming through the doors," she told reporters on Monday. "I took cover, and I waited for him to get closer, and I came out of cover and identified myself, and engaged him, and took him down. And that's pretty much it.""I give the credit to God. And I say that very humbly. God was with me and the whole time I was behind cover -- this has got to be God, because of the firepower that [the gunman] had vs. what I had," Assam said. "I did not run away and I didn't think for a minute to run away, I just knew that I was given the assignment to end this before it got too much worse. I just prayed for the Holy Spirit to guide me."

Hope she can find a police job as she has proven herself.
I was curious as to why she is no longer a police officer so a google search indicates she was fired from Minneapolis police department for lying about swearing at a bus driver during an incident. I hope we’ll find out later that the bus driver was a jerk and even if she swore at him, she no doubt did her job well.
But...she wasn’t politically correct so out she went. No doubt her replacement is 1/2 her quality but doesn’t swear.
