    If there had been two or three MALE officers instead if one being a woman, they might have been able to subdue him more safely and easily...female cops put people at greater risk.

    Still doesn't seem right to call Camilla the queen. I still prefer Queen Consort.

    I think everyone is waiting to hear the immortal words ; the king is dead, long live the king.
