Routine questioning prompts fight, arrest

"Notice her bail is only $10,000 even though she had an outstanding warrant for violating her probation from a previous assault charge. If a guy, with a history of assault, attacked a police officer what would his bond be set at?"

Oh, I'll say ...at least $75K. It's getting to the point where I'm not surprised at the lenient treatment women get compared to the much harsher treatment received by males who commit similar crimes. It's probably not unique to the US and it's probably nothing new. Feminists of both sexes are bigots and hypocrits.

The only two things the article mentions him doing is holfing her flip-flops while she jumped the cop, and fleeing the scene. But he did turn himself in after. Shouldn't he be cut a break? He was probably just scared of the cazy woman that beat on the cop.

I agree with a prior first degree robbery conviction on record and in violation of parole, assault on a police officer would net a male suspect a much higher bond.

Hell, assault on a police officer with no record at all would land a male in custody without bond in many cases.

There is an imbalance between the sexes in dealing with criminal matters.

But of course, this begs the question that no one seems able to answer. As MRAs in our quest for equality, do we want to see men treated with the same compasion as women involved in legal troubles or do we want woman to be dealt with in the same harsh mannor that we deal with men?

Do we need to let a whole bunch of men out of prison, issue them checks for the undue hardship and offer them resourses and a chance at a new life, or do we just want equal numbers of women in prison to men?

To the extent we hold men accountable as adults who are responsible for their behavior, I'd like to see the same standards and penalties applied to adult women. That doesn't mean that there aren't ways in which we could reform our thinking and responses to male perpetrated crime within certain contexts.

hello

my bother-n-law is a sergant in the nyc police department.

he hates arresting female crimmals. why?...they will complain that excessive force was used as they were arrested.(ie: the police victimized me)

it gets worse...many female criminals will claim sexual abuse while they are arrested. 99% OF these claims are false> women seem to use the "rape card" as an exuse that supercedes their crime.

what are these females criminals form of manipulation?..."i might have committed a crime, but i will use every advantage as a female to protest this crime" the reality is: sometimes it works.

however there is hope. the amount of female criminals are increasing at an alarming rate. the police have identified this, and eventually women will no longer be given a "free ride"

a crime...is a crime...whether its male or female.

Well, no sooner did I get my laptop plugged in and sit down in the couch, pop open a Mich Ultra, and turn on the TV (yes, I can do all 3 at once) when the first thing I see is one of those "community service" messages about..you guessed it..domestic violence, where some idiot comes on and says, "real men don't commit violence against anyone!!" So what does that mean, that 'real women' DO commit violence?? Hmm..maybe he has something.

But to get to the point of my comment, i.e. to extend Anthony's train of thought, not only are women criminals a particular problem upon arrest, but:
As my brother and his wife said to me when I visited them in Tucson recently, "women prisoners are more violent than men prisoners" (a direct quote). This may seem a ridiculous statement, except for the fact that said brother and wife have both been working for the Arizona Department of Corrections for many years..and have seen this first-hand.
Let me now take leave so that I may watch "Scarborough Country" on MSNBC, hosted by Joe Scarborough, former U.S. Representative, who uses his newfound media status, in part to continue the spread of misandry..I will say how in a later post, so as not to change the subject too much!!

What exactly is a 'routine questioning'?

I'm not at all happy with the idea of police being able to stop random people on the street and asking them questions. She probably shouldn't have thrown a flip-flop at the cop, but what right had he to start talking with her to being with? Had a crime been committed in the area? Was there a suspect that resembled her? If not, why was he questioning her?
