Stupid. Lethe cop sister in the bar
Why wouldn't she just arrest him right there. When he punched her sister !!! A girl... amongst other guys trying to stop the fight.
shareThat was almost as stupid as having a single female policing a town.
shareIt wasn't that big of a town; more like a rural township with a gas station/restaurant/bar as the place for social gathering.
shareStill if you're gonna have a single cop do anything then at least hire a man for the job.
But aside from that I think they should always come in pairs, no matter how small the place is.

That's not the case in the modern era because it's considered sexist (and understandably so).

They should come in pairs in serious situations, but otherwise any other officer(s) on duty would be on the other side of the township or wherever. Another thing to consider is the police budget. Does the area in question get the revenue via taxes to afford multiple officers in every situation? It seemed like Hickville to me. share
Nothing against female officers but there is still a physical difference between men and women that can not be ignored. Females definitely have a place in law enforcement but they should come in pairs and if for some reason you need to have just a single officer (again, not a fan) then at least give the job to a man that has a fighting chance against male aggressors.
The main reason though why I'm not a fan of a lone officer is that in pairs they a little but police the behavior of the other. Its not perfect but the lone officer can get a little drunk with power and act like judge and jury and you as a single regular Joe have no weight when it comes to reporting it. Again I know the pair is not perfect either, they can definitely become corrupt partners in crime, but I still believe on average it should be more ideal.
I don't care about budgets. If there isn't enough budget for a good systerm around police enforcements... well then the budget should be higher.
Also maybe prioritize better? I know there has been some militirization of the police which has a high cost but not much is spent on training.
I see what you're saying and it makes sense but, when it comes to movies, you have to look at it from the filmmakers' perspective: They didn't want to crowd the film with too many people beyond the 6-7 principles. I'm sure their intent was to keep things simple, socially speaking, plus save money by not hiring an actor to play an additional officer.
