Hollywood legend James Woods has defended female law enforcement officers while ripping on political leaders who don’t give them the support they need.
Women should absolutely be doing this job. If we elect leaders who support law enforcement, we wouldn’t have this problem. Perpetrators who assault our peace officers should receive maximum sentences. Those who support “defunding the police” are responsible for this. https://t.co/1M1H8fVF5U

A repeat offender on probation allegedly struck an NYPD officer with such force that she fell to the ground before other officers apprehended him on a Bronx sidewalk Thursday evening.
The incident, captured on video, highlights the increasing dangers faced by police officers in the line of duty.
The suspect, identified as 41-year-old Ernst Delma, reportedly punched the female officer in the face while she tried to break up an argument between him and a group of kids at approximately 7:10 p.m. on the corner of Rosedale and Randall avenues, according to law enforcement sources.

This Could Be the Most Important Video Gun Owners Watch All Year
Bystander footage shows the officer’s partner moving in on Delma while other officers and witnesses tend to the injured officer, who is seen lying on the ground with a bloody face.
As the officer regains her footing, her partner delivers at least two blows to Delma during the struggle.
As Delma resists arrest, his pants and underwear fall down, exposing his bare backside in the chaotic scene. Spectators watched as Delma was eventually handcuffed and taken into custody.
The injured officer sustained a cut to her lip and was transported to a local hospital in stable condition, police said.
Delma faces charges including assault on a police officer, resisting arrest, and obstructing governmental administration. He was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital for evaluation following the arrest.
Delma, who is on probation, has a history of numerous prior arrests, including for assault and burglary in recent years.
Patrick Hendry, President of the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association (PBA), criticized the justice system’s handling of repeat offenders. “Thankfully, our sister is recovering from this brutal assault. But this is exactly what happens when the justice system cares more about coddling criminals than backing up cops on the street,” Hendry stated.
“We’ll be watching to make sure this individual is charged appropriately and kept off the street. Our sister and her partner did their job. Now everyone else in the criminal justice system needs to do theirs.” – Patrick Hendry

I usually agree with Mr. Woods, but on this one…not so much. Women have no place on the front lines in either the military or police force. Not due to sexism but due to physical abilities. Police forces are literally LOWERING their standards to let in female who can NOT do the job…as clearly represented in this video…but she bled well! While there may be some butch jock females (like the one in the video who did not do so well), the rest are not. They are a liability to the rest of the force…especially with younger, single men who will rush to defend their weaker frames and abilities. This woman was taken out by a single blow and needed the help of two other officers while the forth needed to handle the assailant by himself…not that HE needed any help. I know I will face the wrath of the purple hair man haters but the video does not lie…nor do the countless others of female police officers screaming for help when challenged.
Although I’d agree with you about some jobs like fire-fighting for instance because the job is a life and death situation against an element, not a person. And yes, strength is paramount to carry hoses, people, pets and all away from danger. However…
I think a billion Asian males under 5’2″ would disagree with you of your overall point. Asian men are typically short and fragile in appearance. They are hellfire in combat. My husband used to take the biggest badass black/Hispanic men (one from the NFL) who were part of his Spec Ops team to Korea to learn only one lesson. That was:
SIZE DOES NOT MATTER. Training matters. The Americans got their butts kicked in two moves by men smaller than most of today’s females. They learned very quickly. Do NOT underestimate anyone. In fact, underestimation can be counted on in such situations by smaller people and used to that person’s advantage, if properly trained.
Attacking police officers should be an instant prison sentence, no bail.
That would depend on each individual circumstance. Many shouldn’t be wearing a badge and should be in jail themselves!
Look I love James Woods. He is a smart guy and displays a lot of wisdom.
But on this, he is completely delusional.
My qualifications to address this are:
I was cop.
I have two (2) daughters who were world-class judo fighters (think Ronda Rousey).
They were at the OTC. The eldest fought RR once (judo).
And both became MMA fighters. (gravesjudo.com – Names in upper left corner.)
Cops have to fight periodically and the TV shows skinny girls beating men – it is absurd.
Pound for pound men hid OVER 160% harder than girls.
Men have thicker skulls. They have much faster reflexes and thicker skulls and bones.
men tend to be less emotional in life-threatening situations…on and on I could go.
OK I ADMIT – there are probably a teeny-tiny percent of freaks of nature women out there who could do as well as the lower-level men. They would have to be large girls and super fit.
But even if you found them you’d have to see how easily they get knocked out, how controlled they are emotionally *and yes* because lives are at stake, they would need to be tested or benched each monthly period and maybe ovulation.
The testing required to make them up to the low end, males would be costly, exhausting, and endless.
You know which girls and women out there are certain they don’t want to be cops? It is the girls who have trained for a decade or two in a *REAL* martial sport with men. (“REAL” means not karate or TKD)
Ask any person who weighs over 175 if they want a female coming into a burning building to try and drag them out! LOL
The people who pushed this crap on police and firefighters and then reduced the physical requirements over and over are scum who don’t care who dies. They are the same ones who now are letting guys steal the medals from girls who spent 10 or 20 yrs working to win them.
They don’t care about fairness or lives they want to wreck society while pretending they are morally superior standing on the bodies of the ones they destroy.
I’d support it if all female cops were as trained as your daughters. My niece WAS an LA County deputy. She is smart, well trained, very fit. But NOT equal to a man equally well trained and fit. She had to retire because of an injury on the job, and will deal with progressing back damage the rest of her life. Being the person she is, she trained to become an RN, and is serving there.
Sorry about your niece but she was deceived. Judo is the ‘trump card” martial art. Experts in judo must be knocked out before they get their hands on you or you are finished. The only people who regularly beat the Gracies are well-trained Judokas. But that takes 10 yrs MIN and they MUST begin very young and have some natural athleticism if they are to get good. Parts of Judo are taught to Secret Service, Seals etc. ***BUT***
even though its name means “the gentle way”. it is brutal. and BOTH of my girls have ACL surgeries (eldest had two, her sister three) Girls have ACL surgeries TEN to one.
Many experts have deduced that no sport makes a person all around tougher than Judo.
When we started the sensei said to the entire room, “You will see young athletes from all kinds of tough sport come in and try Judo. If they try to keep up with you they will be puking in that barrel over there.” He was right. We had a well-known men’s wrestling club train with our girls and they quit after three times. The ex-AAU coaches said they were getting dispirited by being beaten up by girls smaller than them.
HOWEVER remember – this is NO STRIKING – on SOFT mats, with rules to keep people from real harm.
I watched a ripped 28 yr old , 6’-4″, karate club owner get on the mat with my 125lb girl and she threw him, got full mount and he could not get up despite being in top shape and twice her weight. *BUT* he could have – from his back – slapped her open-handed once and that would have been it.
Skinny male drug addicts can fight off 4 or 5 tough male cops.
I could go on but here is the point:
No amount of training can keep a woman safe from an untrained drunk, drugged, nutty, or just enraged male who is SMALLER than her.
The female cops who are not hurt or killed on the job will be the lucky ones.
People who love them should show them how physically inferior they are before they join.
My daughters trained with male boxers who were yrs younger and smaller than them and they soon understood they could be knocked silly EVEN with fluffy gloves by a small male.
My eldest girl went to the training gym or an ex-olympian who had a boy’s team.
She had fought all over the world called me and said she felt ridiculous.
She said, “These little boys 13-14 yrs old are rolling their eyes at how pathetic I am while they beat the snot out of me.”.. LOL
Seriously, it is a Hollywood propaganda deception that women can even begin to compete with men in violence. People should do all they can to dissuade women from falling for this political correctness crap that is destroying their lives. 100% of leftist/DEM ideas and laws hurt people. I was raised a DEM and activist and wised up. I’ve watched them for 70 years ruin everything they touch.
Didn’t NYPD learn from their PLUNGER fiasco? If I sat on the jury this man would walk free. Because -> “NYPD officer absolutely demolishes a repeat offender and humiliates him by pulling his pants down in front of a group of people“
that’s not what the story reported. It said he resisted arrest and his pants fell down. it said nothing of the police pulling his pants down. I’m sure that was the last thing on their minds as they fought with this guy to arrest him.
Women should not be fighting men.
In the Olympics.
On the street.
In the home.
Women should not be fighting men
This time, Woods is wrong. Women can’t do this job. They are much weaker than men. They’re also trigger happy. You need big, strong men to do this tough job, much like Matt Dillon in Gunsmoke.
Several years ago when Cops tv series came on two women cops were called to bar disturbance. The skinny little guy causing all the problems manhandled the two ladies, one short fat the other tall skinny like they were rag dolls. It took a civilian man about three seconds to put the twerp down and save the poor damsels in distress.
Oh geez… smh at the poll in this article. “Does Kamala Picking Walz As VP Help Or Hurt Her Campaign For President?” They don’t pick their running mate!!
I am a Christian widowed woman, and I get little respect from men since my husband died just in everyday interactions. I can’t imagine a female police officer being respected. We can change the laws, but it doesn’t mean it will change people’s minds.
I totally respect James Woods but again, he is denying the physical (and mental) differences between XX and XY. We allowed the Left to do this and look at what extremes it led to. To the point of absolute absurdity. In this instance James Woods is incorrect.
Don’t you believe we as a society have abused Women enough? We claim we are for them but we put them in boxing rings to have the daylights beat out of them, we put them on the front lines to be ripped apart by an enemy, we put them on the streets to be used and abused by so-called men who are cowards that want to pulverize them. We need to put Women back on the pedestal and take care of them. Because in the long run the real women will appreciate us for that.
Joe, you and I, of course, didn’t do that, but, as a society, yes we did. And this has been the agenda of the whacko feminist movement since their beginning 100+ years ago. For the past 50+ years, anybody who dared speak up was shouted down, censured, and otherwise intimidated into silence. Now, “the chickens come home to roost.”
I think you miss the point. The point I see Mr Woods making is if we crack down on the offenders and do not repeatedly release them the crime rate would drop. It appears that if criminals have no fear of consequences there they strike with impunity. And will continue to do so. Our “leaders” are partially responsible as well as parents and educators.
Understand what you are saying but the horse has left the barn…unless and until we restore some order to the streets, female officers are in real danger…beyond the norms. This does not negate the reality that most men will sacrifice themselves to protect their female colleagues.
Be interesting to watch if the wheels of justice grind equally. A J6 defendant has just been sentenced to 20 years, yes, 20 years for the exact same crime, assaulting a police office during the J6 “riots”. My guess is that this criminal, if convicted, will receive any where near the identical sentence for the identical crime, any comments?
will he be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. very doubtful
Years ago I saw a pair of cops answer a wife beater call. This guy was 6’4″ 6′ 5″. The male cop pulled the wife away. The other officer was a hispanic woman 5″ nothing. When the guy shoved the female officer, he sent her back 2 or 3 feet, she almost fell. She came right back at him, jump up in the air and punched him right in the throat. He went down like a tree holding his throat. We cheered across the street. God I wish we had cell phone cameras back then.
That must have been great to see, but she was nothing but lucky. Had that man decided to hit her as she came in instead of pushing her she could have died from one blow. At the very same weights, men hit over 160% harder. At his size and weight, he could hit 300% to 500% harder than she could. Her skull is far thinner and weaker. If her knew how to throw a punch and had done so he could have literally broken every bone in her face and killed her. He could have punched in the ribs and driven through her lung. He could have kicked her once and given her life-threatening internal injuries, or broken her leg backward at the knee. He didn’t take her seriously and he got surprised.
Good for her. I’ll bet the next female cop that comes at him fairs far worse.
and release 2 hours later no doubt
Either you support all officers doing the correct job or you don’t. So tired of the picking and choosing what to support or not. If it is not used, take it off the books till they want to use it steadily. As a cop, the number 1 problem is so many laws and statutes they must know just to see if a crime was committed.
The Bronx district Attorney’s office will, most likely, like they always do, drop the Assault on a Police Officer and Resisting Arrest Charges.
Sorry, James, as one who has worn the badge, I can’t say I support women in this line of work. This is too often the case where the female anatomy comes in to play in a negative outcome. Just look at the travesty of Olympic boxing recently. Too many times a male officer is tasked with protecting his female partner instead of 100% focus on his job of law enforcement.
This endangers both. Just like the old method of two officers in one car was abandoned by most agencies because of increased risk of both being neutralized upon arriving at the scene of a crime in progress.
Funny, this stuff never happens in TV cop shows, like Blue Bloods, where these 5’2″ women take down guys 6’4″ with no problem.
The only power female officers have over male suspects is that which is voluntarily given to them. If a male wants to resist, he overpowers the female easily. They are even a hazard to other male LEOs. I have witnessed this many times.
We are in a sociological experiment, things in nature will win, eventually, after enough women get the crap beat out of them trying to prove the absurdity of their argument…..
