4 takeaways:
don’t resist arrest
don’t resist especially if a female cop is on the scene
@ all the “if she can’t tell the difference between a taser and a Glock” comments ... how about the fact cops typically run tasers in cross draw?
No matter what she intended to draw, she drew from her pistol-side hip, not the cross draw taser location.
Which leads me to:
Wasn't there a study done that showed Female Cops more likely to shoot a suspect or make deadly force mistakes, than a male one?
Yep because they scare easily and cant put up a physical fight.
