The truth you never know how you are going to react until the crisis hits, and I don't put all of the onus on her for not being ready.
I know a lot of folks are down on women in these roles, and most women are going to have a hard time handling a situation like she faced. However, there are those that can function under extreme stress. I recently watched a video of a young black woman cop that was as good as anyone could have ever been.
A car had been following a young woman and trying to get her pulled over. She drove to a police station and got help. They sent a car after the individual. He had pulled over at what appeared to a close office building with an external foyer, and was pretending to try to enter the business. When confronted by an old white officer he step back out of sight into the foyer, and as the officer advanced he stepped out and shot him. The young black woman cop put him down for good in less than two seconds. Her trusting partner lay on the ground wounded, but she had been dead ready to go.
Every person is going to react differently, and their level of training will have a huge impact. These people were all thrown to together as a team without any advance training to react as a team. Is it any wonder the chaos that lack of training caused?
You have to wonder if this was a pure set up with green agents who were meant to fail.
