I'll have one more go at an actual post - no idea why I bother but I will anyway.

Policing is not all about jackbooted heavies breaking up fights and arresting people. There's another side of policing that involves de-escalating situations before they become violent (that's why inner cities need racially diverse police forces) and also speaking with, supporting and taking information from women and children who have been abused or sexually assaulted which is why they need female officers who yes may be physically smaller than male officers.

But no let's just have it all be 6ft+ roid bros throwing their weight around. Why not. That'll work out great.

Like I said last attempt at a sincere post on the reason that diversity is, in fact, often important and not just "woke". I am in fact aware that this is a circus and not a discussion forum.
