As for the training, if policy is to remove a firearm from someone or some place as a normal function of their job (which it was and still is), then they should be trained on how to do it safely. They’re trained on how to do pat downs; they find things during them. Do they never consider/train how to remove firearms, syringes, knives, drug bags, etc. and do it safely?


Yes, you do it without putting your finger on the freaking trigger, just like every other gun that you handle. And don't point it at people. It's not that complicated. But yes, I'm sure they also trained on removing weapons and other dangerous objects from suspects in scenario training. It's part of our basic academy curriculum.


Sad thing is it only takes one rule, keep your finger off the trigger until you’re ready to fire. Should be applicable to any firearm in any situation. She royally fucked up an elementary level of firearms handling.



...Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel, was just a freight train coming your way...

Well...You sure told him.

slogsig, I agree with you. If you can pass training (that has not been watered down) and do the job properly, then I don't give a damn what's between your legs. This would also very likely mean that there would be less female officers. And I don't care. The needs of the job come first.

Hell, prove ME wrong. I'm sure you'll give any argument I present fair consideration. Riiiight. I generally don't waste time trying to sway opinions that appear to be set in stone.

As I said, if a man and woman can both perform just as well during training that is NOT watered down, and they can meet the needs of the job, then why not?

Show me a department, or state, that doesn't water down the requirements.

Nope. Women should be in the home. Men should be doing what needs done
