Unlawfully detained today

[No_Regerts]

County guys and small town PDs are your gun ownership allies. Big city PDs or the state aren't as gun friendly. When I tested for Portland, there were lots of gun related questions. These departments also tend to attract city people who aren't as gun friendly in general. You should see these clowns shoot!

ok, these guys are Kitsap.....

That is strange. Then again, look at her hair.

[glockgirl]

Thunder thighs.

Seriously? You guys are so...I don't know how to say this politely so I won't say it. She's a deputy sheriff.

Her hair colour has exactly nothing to do with her treatment of Sam, or her performance of her job, and commenting on her body? Really? She's actually looking pretty friendly and even apologetic in that pic...female officers take enough abuse, subtle and otherwise, from their "colleagues" without random men commenting on her being a "Reno 911 reject" or commenting on her hair colour or on her body. Which I'm guessing could nail all of your arses to the ground in about 45 seconds, should that be required.

It's easier to spin a narrative of the poor oppressed citizen if you can make the cops involved into non persons.

She's out of shape for what police standards should be.(IMO) That has nothing to do with the officer's gender. A male officer of similar BMI would garner the same response from me. An officer should be able to pursue a fleeing suspect on foot and physical fitness should be important to police officers. I'm a big fat fatty. I have no business chasing criminals. Hell I get winded going out to check the mail.

Also, how would you respond to a male officer with hair dyed that color? There's a certain degree of professionalism that should go along with the job and the officer's appearance to the public is a part of that. I certainly don't mean this as any kind of personal attack, but IMO the officer's appearance is somewhat unprofessional.

Agreed.
Not much potential there for a running takedown of.....anybody. (IMHO)
She is the "face" of law enforcement at the point of initial contact. The projected image of a professional law enforcement officer is degraded, IMHO, by the hair color and apparent physical fitness of said "Professional" Law enforcement officer.
It would seem to me that your reaction is based upon the sex of the officer, rather than the appearance Jen. Would your reaction have been different if it was an overweight male Deputy with the same hair color?

[WAGunRights]

Looks like we are woefully off topic again.

I personally don't condone attacks of the deputy. I will however say that with the hair color and apparent physical fitness she doesn't exactly exude professionalism. I would expect my law enforcement professionals to have a better public appearance.

Still waiting on FOIA for everything related to this.

[glockgirl]

Would your reaction have been different if it was an overweight male Deputy with the same hair color?

Yes, because there are plenty of male King County sheriff's deputies running around carrying an extra 20+ lbs. around the midsection--a clear indicator of accumulation of body fat around internal organs. She's not overweight, she's FEMALE, and we carry our weight in our arses and thighs and breasts. Ignoring her thighs--again, a normal physical attribute in a woman--she looks fairly physically fit.

As to hair colour--I do not give a (swear word) what colour the officer/deputy chooses to colour his/her hair, as long as he/she can do his/her job. And in her particular case, I think it's more the sunlight on a burgundy red hair colour that makes it look "purple", which it is not.

Whatever. Slam the female deputy for not living up to your misogynistic standards of female appearance, I don't care. I was just pointing out the astonishing amount of misdirected misogyny in this thread. Sam wasn't arrested, wasn't fined, nothing happened to him, but still you guys act as if she must be incompetent because she's female. Nice.

It became a subject of the topic, therefore no.

..and since you agreed the deputies appearance was an issue for you, why would you respond with the "off topic" comment?

[CurtisLemansky]

[Y]ou guys act as if she must be incompetent because she's female. Nice.

Wow... no one actually said that. Sorry, but she is clearly overweight. I would say the same of a male officer with her size/height. That doesn't seem to fit into your agenda, however.

I don't think it's about the deputy's sex, but I do agree with glockgirl that folks are being WAY too harsh about the deputy's appearance. She is carrying far fewer pounds than many cops (or many of us), and the hair color is just a distraction.

I think it's just a natural reaction to put down the person that has wronged us (or Sam, in this case), but just recognize that and don't blow it out of proportion.

Duplicate..

I personally never made a single comment about the sex, size or hair color of the Deputy Jen. It was only after i responded to your post about it and asked if it was a man if you would feel differently.
Since you responded with a "yes", it would appear your comment about "misogynistic standards of female appearance" might be a bit out of place.
It can't work only one way.

If you want shock and awe, walk up to the back of a LA County Sheriffs Deputy and notice the Gray Ponytail. "It" then turns around and it is a 50+ year old dude with makeup and an Adams apple. Nice lipstick though. After that moment, I will settle for just gender identifiable.

I'd say what has the world come to, but I think we all know

[kf7mjf]

*shrug* if they are good cops, who cares. You want police to represent the community, so that means a bit of everything sometimes
