Some police have their manhood very much tied together with their control issues. When a situation arises where control is not easily achievable, they feel it’s takes their manhood away. Which is right when they feel a need for tbeir 9mm manhood to take its place.
If you have any POs as friends, observe how when they get tense or in an argument they don’t wave their hands around. Their hands drop to their sides as if adjusting their rig and reassuring themselves by the sidearm’s weight, even if it’s not there. No matter what the challenge is. Seeing them do this when it’s their kid complaining about washing the dishes is pretty revealing.
A truism:
Any time you have to prove you’re a man, there has to be a doubt lurking around in there, somewhere.
