    Do Male Police officers wear protection?

    I saw a post that said bit a cop in self defense and it made me curious.... do male police officers wear cups to protect themselves? if not.... they should look into it.... what if they are trying to apprehend a suspect and they get kicked.....

    I didn't. If someone had tried to hit me there, it would probably mean a trip to the ER for them......
    Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine

    For a Christian girl, you need to go to confessional for posting a thread like that.

    I have a glove, Sammy. It is even nitrile, so we don't need to worry about breaking out. LA is only about 8 hours away. ;)


    And to the OP, I do not wear a cup and do not know of a coworker that does.

    LA may only be 8 hours away from you BUT, if/when you get here, you'll find that I'll be ANOTHER 8 hours away, in a rowboat out in the middle of the Pacific somewhere...
