[4 overweight female cops try to arrest a male shoplifter for over 2 minutes.]

If they had just done the Jardiance song and dance he would have surrendered very quickly. Hands over ears and eyes, if possible.

Diversity destroys and it looks like it will destroy women here

Did not agree with Ed Koch politically but agree that as long as you can do the job then go for it. No lower standard, no special accommodations (for these types of jobs) but if you are capable please apply.

I don’t blame the 4 overweight female cops. They should have shot the shoplifter in the ass. Problem solved.

I suspect 4 in shape healthy men - following department standards - would not have fared better.

Why would any cop risk another George Floyd moment?

Can you tell me what law would be broken if Mrs. Gray, there, were to come up to you on the street and offer to take you home and put on a show with a Shetland Pony?

Other than cruelty to animals ...

“””””Did not agree with Ed Koch politically but agree that as long as you can do the job then go for it.”””””

After more than 50 years of lowering standards people need to quit using that phrase, it never applied, it doesn’t apply, and it never will apply.

True - I’m actually sympathetic to that

Yeah, a few years ago they’re worried about my ...... plastic license plate cover.

MEANWHILE a short black guy was robbing gas stations and other stores AT GUNPOINT. He would eventually rob >>>9<<< places.

So ..... we pull over the tall white guy because ..... (rolls eyes)

Can’t imagine why the short black guy did 9 crimes (9th one got him caught)

Oh, sorry, chief. We were involved in checking a plastic license plate cover.

The new Nashville Mayor is a DEI lunatic.

This is just the tip of the iceberg.

The cops had other options:

—Pepper spray in the face. Most suspects will surrender at that point.

—Everybody take one step back and Taser. The perp had clothes so it may not have worked—but worth a try.

—Get one cuff on—they had one hand under control during parts of the stop.

These female cops were “mailing it in”—a halfhearted effort since they know they get a paycheck either way.

Look into the case in Fulton County GA where a guy on trial for murder overpowered a female deputy, took her gun, murdered the judge and went on a rampage thru town.

Diversity Programs are the biggest scam perpetrated on the American people in history. It’s about power and wealth transfer, nothing more. It sure as hell isn’t about equal performance or ability.

In my 3 plus decades in Law enforcement.

I worked with some very special people hired under affirmative action.
