with a citizen away from the Force Dynamic, and you put it in the behavior, Thoughtful Dynamic. It is quite a Powerful Force to be reckoned with. We have this sort of traditional notion that we are wrestling people, jumping on people, putting handcuffs on people. The woman’s view of the world is a much more Powerful, Persuasive Force than just an arm around the neck.”

About samina iqbal
I am a free lance writer who loves to write on social issues in particular. I am a house wife and my husband Dr. Shams Iqbal offers all the support and encouragement so that I can pursue my passion for authorship and other cause which is dear to me. My lifelong mission in life is to offer my support for the police officers who need to be supported and protected by general public like us. My inspiration to do this comes from my personal experiences of some of the greatest police officers whom I have witnessed do great deeds for the good of humanity. I am so inspired and fascinated to support this law enforcement group. On the other hand I like music, movies specially classics, I am a fashion geek, English and American literature are my passions.

Jen sometimes has to work with police officers, and she has found herself having to calm down the officer too. There are some adrenaline junkies in uniform.

My friend there are adrenaline junkies everywhere and women like Jen play a major role in keeping the otherwise volatile situation under control. This is why more female officers in the police force are needed, as it is the call of the day. Thanks for stooping by and sharing your story. I appreciate it very much. Take care my friend.
