Or firemen.
Well, it's not something I've ever been drawn to so you'll never see me in that situation.
No "maybes" about it and not only because of the issue in question but because they fall in love with prisoners - we see it time and time again. There's a place for females in the workforce - as clerks.
Exactly. Be a waitress for a few years until you find a husband, if you're worth marrying in the first place.
Women police almost never use excessive force, though they use the same amount of regular force. Studies show they draw their weapons less, tend to look for non-physical solutions and are much better at community outreach.
“What women never think is: ‘Can I wrestle this guy to the ground?’ She’s more likely to control the situation with voice and presence than any kind of physical tool,” former Houston Mayor Anise Parker told me for my chapter of women in law enforcement in my book, Broad Influence: How Women Are Changing the Way America Works.
Women officers tend to save their municipalities a substantial amount of money. Lawsuits alleging the use of excessive force by police cost taxpayers millions of dollars every year. Female officers are the defendants far less often than men, and male officers cost between 2.5 and 5.5 times more to taxpayers because of payouts to settle such suits, according to a study by the Feminist Majority Foundation and the National Center for Women & Policing.
For example, the City of Los Angeles paid $63.4 million between 1990-1999 in lawsuits for excessive force and other violent complaints against male officers. By contrast, it paid $2.8 million for similar allegations against female officers, but not one of those complaints was for excessive force. Male officer payouts in cases of brutality and misconduct were 23 times the amount paid in cases involving women; in cases involving killings, settlements for male-involved lawsuits were 43 times of those involving women; and 32 times the amount paid to settle female-involved assault and battery cases.

What a load of crap. Had a friend almost beaten to death because his female partner ran and locked herself in the paddy wagon when things got rough. Then there is that video of three European police women trying to arrest one skinny black immigrant. If you don't want lawsuits employ the appropriate people and train them correctly.
