Being frightened in a frightening situation is perfectly natural.
But it's impossible to know how we'd then react.
The lady officer showed tremendous courage to run towards the area everyone was running from.
It is clear her decisive action saved further lives.

'Knifeman in Australia' has the same cadence as 'Girlfriend in a Coma'. Even though it has more syllables.

Did the Lady officer shoot the Gentleman attacker? Indeed she did ... I read she then spent quite an extended period administering first aid until assistance arrived. I understand she has declined all demands to speak about the incident to the press. I hope she is being well supported ... doing the right thing doesn't always feel like it. Rog

Rog Have you seen the Indiana Jones film scene where the big bad black man comes towards Indy with a huge machete? Indy grins, pulls out a gun and shoots the big bloke stone dead. So no I donβt think the police lady showed tremendous courage. She had a massive advantage over the knife man (her gun) and the training to go with it. It would have been a no brainer. i have to say that I suspect that you and others think she showed βtremendous courageβ only because she was a member of the (allegedly) weaker sex. Which if correct is somewhat patronising!

Okay if that's what you think.
I think that someone running into an area that everyone panicking and terrified is running from ... a chaotic scene where multiple reports are describing death and assault ... to enter that area alone to try and help is extremely brave.
To confront a person who's killed and injured others without knowing what weapons or explosives may be on the person other than an obvious machete, and then remain controlled enough to take appropriate action is very brave.
To then remain and try to save that person's life whilst unsure if they're acting alone, or whether bombs have been planted and about to detonate, is very brave.
The sex of the person is irrelevant to the bravery demonstrated.
We are beginning to get a clear idea of what happened now.
The officer had none of that clarity but demonstrated personal courage.
Had the officer remained on 'standby' at the entrance awaiting other officers, the officer would not have been criticised.

Rog Why am I not surprised that a topic about a knife wielding psychopath is posted by dogless, or Alice, as he's more aptly known, . . when he himself spends inordinate amounts of time every day in the on-line trolling of the internet with his very own on-line stalking buddy, . . who just happens to be knife wielding psychopath, . . by the name of Vince ' Mr Stabby' Coventon. I see that another of the knife wielding psychopath's close circle, Clinton Cunt, has been engrossed in a pointless conversation with Alice, . . talk about synchronicity ! PS 'Synchronocity' would be a more interesting subject to talk about than the patronising drivel that dogless/ Alice is trotting out at the moment.

In a former life I was always reminded that the person who's never had to face an angry man, always knows best what should be done.

'Police officer' is also a fact, and would suffice.

'Police officer' is also a fact, and would suffice. Why does it matter to you ? Sad I know, but I checked back. I mentioned the officer's gender when the news first broke very early. I have since referred to the officer as being female in response to fi 's jokey reference to women / lady / female ... hard not to. I don't 'keep on mentioning it' Rog
