are white Women cops more dangerous because they opt for force too soon in the presence of black males?

I couldn't answer that question. I think it's far too broad, no pun intended.

In my many years policing, I never shared a squad with a woman officer. Occasionally I'd have to hang over a few hours to provide shift coverage if our relief was short, or sometimes we'd have neighboring units respond to a hot call in our area (pursuit or something) and some of them would be women, but I've never policed consistently around women.

But...

I attended two academies (for departments in different states) and had women in both of them. Additionally, during my time in service at the academy I trained plenty more.

I could probably count on one hand the number of female officers I was at least acquainted with who I trusted to save my life. That number is out of dozens, easily.

But to answer your question, I think I saw more inaction than poor action from female officers, in the limited exposure I had to them. That pertains to their responses/behavior at EVOC, SWAT night, practical assessments, inspections, hot calls, etc., irrespective of their race or the race of the offender.

Yeah, but also every other wave of feminism and liberalism.

There is no healthy kind of either.

I concur sir, this too has been my experience during my stint in FTO.

What's the problem.


The point is she admits to mistaking her pistol for a taser and accidentally shot him when she obviously didn’t feel shooting him was necessary.

The fact that he was an idiot and shouldn’t have resisted doesn’t really matter in this case. That’s going to be the easiest involuntary manslaughter conviction in history.

Do you have any data to support there being an inability to successfully subdue suspects given women on the force?


Like any police force would dare conduct & keep that kind of misogynistic data. That truth would have them on every CNN type news show in the blink of an eye

This may come as a surprise, but oftentimes the offenders don't hold still and present a clear target.

Also, those are tiny darts propelled by nitrogen (or some inert gas). They don't really come from a barrel, so accuracy isn't always as nice as you'd like. One prong fires flat(ish) and the other prong is set at an angle respective to the maximum length of the conductors. That is done to give a prime spread on the body through which the current should pass. In my day, the "door" of the cartridge was colored differently for various spreads.

All that to say, sometimes those little shits just fly where they want.

Simple questions, sir....

Is it better to be stronger or weaker?

It's a yes or no. We don't need to get into fantasy land where we pretend guns can perform human functions.
Intuitively, I want to give an easy "yes". But it's why I asked if there were any data to back up the anecdotal claim that women on the force have led to a detectable lack of ability for precincts to subdue suspects. Many things end up with counter-intuitive results. No answer to this question would surprise me.

And let me also say, and maybe you'll agree, that there are TONS of guys - big, small, muscular, slim, fat, short, tall, whatever - that are exactly the same way. Let them get that Crown Vic up to 70 mph in an EVOC with the ABS fuse pulled and watch them shite themselves.

Some people aren't cut out to be surgeons or ball players or chefs or cops. That's just how it goes.

Right on.

As a career professional in a closely related field, the data supports strength over weakness every time, but honestly everyone already knows it, so it's not even worth analysis.

Come on nothing. The media is advancing a narrative not the truth. If he had managed to shoot all three police officers they would have focused on the fact he was white.
Maybe if he were Hispanic I would agree.

Yes, sir, it's the size of the fight in the dog not the size of the dog that counts. Quite a few male specimens washed out in FTO due to their inability to react, shear panic. They ended up in the dispatch training program

I get all that. But in the post I asked that question was in reference to a poster who said a cop mistakenly pulled his gun instead of his tazer, and shot the perp in the head. Meaning he was actually aiming for the guy's head. I would think you'd aim center mass of the body and then yeah, those little suckers will fly where they want.

If he is that panicked nothing is out of the question. He's not in control of his faculties so to see that happen is not surprising.
