Dear Mr. Hawkins,
The Feminists do a lot of talking about equality and equity, as you
will be aware, but (with the connivance of the Human Rights Commission)
female trainees can get into the police with lower achievements on physical
tests than male trainees can.
- This is sexist, discriminatory, and unfair, and is bound to undermine
the morale of male police, who see their friends fail to get in after
achieving the same results that sufficed to get female candidates
accepted;
- A police force with low morale will be less effective;
- When male and female police are on the beat together, the males
have to compensate for the females' physical incompetence, which puts
both of them in danger and makes them less effective than two male
police officers (both of whom had to pass higher physical standards);
- This must surely affect police morale;
- This situation offends against the principle of Equal Pay for Equal
Work, since male and female police officers are paid at the same rate
but are not equally competent and therefore cannot do the same work
(as described above);
- It is arguable that the reason Stephen Wallace was shot by a police
officer in Waitara, in that celebrated case, was that one of the three
police officers was female, and was therefore incompetent to help
the two male officers subdue Wallace in a non-lethal manner. Not only
that, but the female officer admitted in court to having become frightened
of Wallace, which indicates that she was temperamentally unsuited
to police work -- a male officer with such wimpish characteristics
would not have got accepted into the police force;
- This sort of thing must also surely affect police morale;
- Females in the police force do not last as long there as males do,
and there is evidence that they enter the police force partly in order
to find a husband, so taxpayer money spent training female police
is a relative waste
- Meanwhile, the cirminals are away laughing !
In New Zealand, men and women are said to be
equal, but women are more equal than men !
