Much of this morning’s news was dominated by a story in which a man, arrested and charged with several bank robberies, who had escaped police custody and was being sought by the law enforcement members of Fairfax County Virginia, where I live. There were radio updates upon updates, informing the public to be on the lookout for a certain car, which had been hijacked, and not to approach the “accused” felon, who was considered armed and dangerous. But something did not fit: how had this man, identified as Wossen Assaye, who appears (from his photo) not particularly big or bulky, “overpowered” two policemen, taken the gun of one, and fled. It didn’t sound kosher, and, of course, it wasn’t.

From the wire service story: “Assaye had been held in Alexandria, Virginia, and was taken to the hospital about 15 miles (24 km) west of Washington on Friday after a suicide attempt, said U.S. Marshal Robert Mathieson.

Assaye overpowered one of two private security guards early on Tuesday and took her (emphasis mine) gun. A male guard fired one shot but no one was injured. Assaye used the female guard as a shield before fleeing wearing only a hospital gown, Mathieson said. He added that authorities were investigating how securely Assaye had been shackled.” In every news broadcast I heard, never once was the overpowered guard identified as a female, and readers of this blog can figure out why.

There remain serious questions about how, or even if, Assaye was shackled in his transfer to a hospital in Fairfax Country, and how he was able to obtain clothing, after fleeing in only a hospital gown. Further, the woman security guard and her partner were custodians on contract: the local police force or marshal’s office, which normally transfers prisoners, was not used. We also know nothing of Assaye’s immigration status, whether he is another illegal alien, this one from Africa.

The MSM invariably refuses to emphasize the important facts in these cases: a female guard is overpowered, and the subject escapes. To do so would upset the now acceptable narrative that a woman firefighter, or policeman, or infantry “person” is just as capable of doing anything a male can do. My brother was a New York City fireman for more than 30 years, and he often stated that “no woman” could lift him in the event he was overcome by smoke.

We, as a nation, have become conditioned to believe that any woman can do what a man can. The feminists seek to assure us that they can. Nature tells us that they cannot, and I need not state where the truth rests.
