That is a piss poor article written by fembot activists that doesn’t take into account the fact women officers are far less exposed to hazardous duty than male cops.
************************************************

I don’t disagree that women might not be put alone in hazardous situations like the male cops, and that may be why they have less shootings as a percentage than the men.

However, that was not the discussion. The comment was that women use their guns more than men, and that is just false. In fact, they use them less.

They use them less because they have less exposure to police environments where they are likely to be used

That’s not the same as they use their guns less exactly

I shoot less jihadis than a Navy SEAL

Factually true but not relevant

It’s part of this myth if women ran the world they would be less violent

I do agree though that in some circumstances a female negotiator or presence might calm some perps

I could see that

I’m sure less likely to escalate with a woman since I’m reluctant to strike them

But in some demographics that reluctance is far less
