    @ Avenge. Are you serious? I suppose you also think women should not have the right to vote, drive a car or have an opinion. When you are in trouble and a female officer comes to your aid, will you reject her help? Get with the times. And thank you to the gentleman who helped out. This 16-year-old better change her ways or her future is bleak.

    Did you get that? Someone had to bail out the female officer. Guess she couldn't handle a 16 year old by herself. Women have no business being police officers. They really need to fulfill their intended purpose by staying home, raising the kids, cooking, etc.

    So, a female police officer was overpowered by a 16-year girl and had to be rescued by a man. Interesting.
