Pretty sure it's due to the cut of the vest which allows this, and that it's a comfy way of positioning your hands, also means they won't do too many 'hand gestures' whilst talking to people, so less potential misunderstandings of aggression, as it looks more relaxed.
Personally i'd be more worried that i was provided a stab vest that you can fit both your hands in easily enough!
Different movie entirely.
🤣
Hands behind back - look like a royal, hands in front of groin area look like a problem, hands on hips - look like your pigs had gone missing - thumbs in stab vest to be non aggressive. Stab vests and body armour are also very heavy so it probably alleviates the weight?
It’s a shame stab vests are standard issue?
Whilst we are on it then, why do they always say “at this moment in time”?
At this moment in time you are under arrest. Now. Just say now.
