“... investigators say a suspect attacked the responding female officer.”
Sending a woman to do a man’s job, especially a very dangerous job like this one, is the height of civilizational stupidity.
Exactly right, 80 to 90% of the job is “safe contacts”
and paper work but those other times you need a strong, physically fit male.
It’s interesting! Like letting men participate in women’s sports!
There are some situations where it’s best for a woman to respond. Handling female and child rape victims, for example.
This is not one of them. I would have requested backup before running in there.
