As I was driving in my car today a thought occured to me. Winter's coming up soon and many police forces will be requiring their officers to go back to long sleeve shirts complete with neckties. Aren't neckties somewhat of a safety issue in the event that you get into a scuffle with someone and they grab your tie and start choking you to death, or do your departments have you wearing clip-on ties that can rip off easily if grabbed?

I have only seen the clip-ons being issued but have seen velcro ones. I'd stick with the clips.

We wear long sleeves and ties year round. Ours are clip on, and can easily be removed if someone tried to grab it. I have seen the velcro ones too."...I'd never let you down, even if I could. I'd give up everything if only for your good..." 3 Doors Down
