Really? I had always considered the human female the more rational and peaceful of the two sexes. I guess I might have been wrong.

Not sure about acute care hospitals, but nursing homes are another place where people can abuse others, staff and other patients, without consequence. The state will blame the facility for any injuries to patients. Staff they don't care about.
Someone told me once that during an interview for an incident with the state, the state employee garbage made a pointed remark to the nurse that anytime you are hit on the job, it's not abuse. I won't even tell you what my fantasy is if I'm ever in a nursing home and the state is in.

the only time we went to war in my lifetime was the only time we were governed by a female Prime Minister
The Film Cape Fear is based on what happened between a client and an attorney when the attorney refused to defend his client because he knew that his client was guilty.

A very recent murder case here in Toronto involved the swarming and stabbing of a 56 year old homeless man by 7 teenage girls. The youngest 3 were 13 years old, 3 were 15, and one was 17. All of them were arrested, charged with second degree murder and will be tried in Youth Court here in Toronto at the court at 311 Jarvis Street.
After being held in secure custody for over a year, their trials are ongoing. Some of them have pled guilty, while others have pled not guilty. The ones who pled guilty were given 4 years of restricted community release. The ones who have pled not guilty will be tried by Judge alone, as trials in Canada of youths under the age of 17 do not have juries. Under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, any custodial sentence will end when the convicted person reaches the age of majority which is 19. Their criminal record will be sealed at age 19, and they can truthfully say " I have no criminal record in Canada ", if asked. That needs to be changed, in my opinion.
My point? This was an unprovoked, vicious attack on a drunk man, by 7 teen age girls. At least 3 of them were armed with knives, and the man's throat was cut , causing him to bleed to death before Paramedics could get to him. This happened at around 2 am on a week night, in downtown Toronto in the summer time.
The Toronto Police homicide unit was able to identify one of the girls ( who had a very distinctive hair style ) on a CCTV video from earlier that night at a local corner store, where she bought drinks for the group, using a debit card. That debit card was tracked back to her home address in the suburbs. The TPS computer crimes unit was able to tap into the group's messages, where the girls talked about the killing the night before, at great length . Those messages, plus CCTV camera videos were the major evidence for the Crown at trial. Their own words/messages were used to convict them at trial.
So yes, females can be just as violent as males. JIM.

We have a family story about my mother beating the hell out of me with a wiffleball bat. I'm 61, her 82 and STILL threatens me with a smile.
The lesson I learned that day at 15 YO was to not raise a stick and threaten to hit my mother...

One woman fighting 4 cops and 2 tasers....
Well, that is extremely likely. You see, there was hatred towards us because we lived in a formerly predominantly Italian neighborhood area that had once been called Eighth Avenue, but which had been callously demolished in order to make room for Columbus Homes Housing Projects. The Italians had understandably fought legally and furiously to avoid the demolition. But the government had prevailed.
Christopher Columbus Homes
The Colonnade Apartments were added later. Prior to it that was just demolition rubble.
So when we move in, we were considered enemies, not only because we were born in Puerto Rico and were perceived culturally and racially different, but because of that hateful demolition with which were were being associated. No, I did not consider myself racially different from her physically, since I saw no physical difference between me and that Italian girl at all. But I strongly suspect that she did, along with her Irish friends.
BTW
Such a deep hatred, which was constantly being encouraged by their parents, eventually led them to form a gang called the Dukes. In response, we formed a gang called the Gents. Yes I lived the entire West Side Story film scenario, and it wasn't fun. As you can see, for me, part of it included almost getting drowned.
This is one of the places that was unceremoniously demolished in order to make room for the projects.

no thank goodness, women fight dirty
They looked as if they were scared of her.
Maybe my idea about women being far more rational and peaceful was derived from the old Wild West films in which the cowboys were almost always depicted as the rowdy troublemakers, while the ladies were usually the ones calmly trying to hold up civilization.
Sometimes it doesn't pay to get involved. But you did the right thing. IMHO.
Never considered her crazed. But now that you mention, it, that was definitely an extreme overreaction to having a little water splashed on her and even to having an arm placed around her waist. All she had to do was back away from me. That would have been enough.
No need for attempted murder. Furthermore, she had no evidence that I was splashing water on her since I was not. There were also plenty of other areas to sun bathe since the Rotunda swimming pool was almost empty. So she could have just simply relocated herself there. That's why I am suspecting an ethnically-motivated hatred being involved.
Hopefully Karma eventually got her!

My former wife abused my youngest daughter until my mother taught her to dial 911 and tell the police. That put a full stop to it.

When I was about 13 or so, I thought it would be funny to jump out of a doorway and scare my mom.
I jumped out and she slugged me in the face before either of us knew what was happening.
She reacted out of instinct, thought she was being attacked I guess, but I never did that again.
When she calmed down, we had a good laugh, and when Dad asked what happened to my face, he had a good laugh too.
I think he was secretly kind of proud of my mom for her ability to defend herself.
The only time I can remember Mom hitting me, and it's one of my best memories.

I thik half the toruble is that the police are terrified of what they might get accused of.. she looked like a lunatic, she could have been capable of anything, she could have died, and they would have been charged with her death potentially... she could have killed one of them...
That is a happy outcome which is good. Unfortunately, in my case, it was not. I once tried to surprise this elderly woman neighbor who knocked on my door by suddenly appearing with a scowling face accompanied by fierce grunt.
Well, after backing up, gasping, and grimacing, she stood there clutching her chest and gasping for air for a long while. She had to go to the emergency room from the shock and passed away a few days later I was told when I asked about her. I had to assume that my joke had something to do with it. I only expected a mild surprise and a laugh. Have felt very badly about it. Never again!
I once saw this video on YouTube where this elderly patient was chasing and beating hospital staff members with what looked like a stick, I wondered what could have driven him to do it. Later, when I became familiar with the abuse which patients are subjected to at such places, I understood.

There is not rampant abuse going on in nursing homes. Yes, there are instances. And they are horrible beyond explanation.
There is neglect of staffing. Staff that don't care and too high patient ratios. All of which the government will not regulate better because these places are corporate owned and corporations have all the power it seems. And if staff sees something, there is no place to go. The state is not the place to go. They are their own kind of evil.
Rare jobs allow abuse of employees but in long term care it happens.

"Research over time has consistently shown that men are more likely to commit crime than women. As of February 2017, 93.3 percent of federal inmates were men, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. A 2015 report from the U.S. Department of Justice suggests the vast majority of state prisoners also are men."
Recent statistics (2022-23) show that the number of new male prisoners is decreasing while the number of female prisoners is rising. And the number of female prisoners is rising faster than the males are decreasing. If I remember right, the report said that between 2018 and 2022 (or 23), the number of incarcerated females rose 85% while there was a 44% decrease of incarcerated males.

IOW, the gap is closing.

Well, in my case they didn't inform me of my mom's death and sent her to be cremated without telling me. I found out approx. three weeks later. Previous to that, she had been beaten and they refused to tell me who had done it. They also stole her belongings. Such as her TV, fans, and other such items.
Previous to that at the general hospital, the staff on her floor both the head nurse , clerks and other nurses, all gleefully had cooperated in abusing my mother by allowing her to urinate on herself and on the floor in the middle of the room naked and to run around naked through the hallways. They knew she was suffering from Alzheimer's.
I found them all smirking when I arrived. Said that they knew when a patient was not in her bed because a buzzer would inform them. Later one of them let my mother drop backwards against the mattress spraining her neck when she was supposed to gently lower her unto the pillow. She had an angered expression on her face. I told the head nurse, and she silently tuned her back on me.
So of course I assume that some patients might lash out at such abusers sometimes. In fact, another person with less patience than I have might have sought revenge for their abuse. So I guess you are talking to the wrong person when you describe staff and nurses as being helpless victims worthy of compassion.
Motives: Well, in the USA their is la lot of racism and politically motivated agendas. Ethnically, my mom was a perfect target. Especially with al the political frenzy that was going on.
