Sorry AB but you’re not in the right this time. A group of lads hanging around in a car park, smoking, messing around, etc. isn’t exactly beneficial for society and the local area. The car park should feel safe for the elderly and families with children. The security guard isn’t the problem here. The lack of positive things for these lads to do is the problem. I.e. the problem is the government. Finding tyrant police officers who abuse their power whilst you are filming is good, but having a go at a security guard who is proactively preventing antisocial behaviour, and doing so in a polite manner, isn’t great.

Initially I just posted "Poor show, AB", but now I feel compelled to say more. I have so much respect for you, both as an individual and an auditor. There are plenty of big auditors out there that are cheeky and provocative, but not you. You might tease and joke, but you're not rude and nasty unless someone throws the first punch. On this occasion though, you did PRECISELY the sort of thing that you critique the police for. How often do you complain when a police officer passes info on to another and then that other officer searches you, going purely on what they've been told. Here you witnessed almost none of the actual interaction and you jumped immediately on this security. You went in for a fight straight away with "I'm going to have a go at them" and then you even played the race card! I still love you to pieces and will carry on watching all your content, but this wasn't ideal. That said, carry on and keep doing what you do, but this is probably a good learning experience. Best regards A humble Bong Baron.

Writing from crime infested Bay Area California, this security man is Gold class grade A and he is right on the mark if you do not have your own car in the parking lot then you shouldn't need to be hanging out in the parking lot irregardless of your color or age.

To all of you that are saying this is boring, AB is getting dry of content etc..... I think it's well worth him uploading this to show us the true difference of good versus bad. This bloke shows us all what police and security guards could all be like, in an ideal world that is! And to me, it shows just how awful the bloody tyrants are in comparison! At the end of the day, a bit of mutual respect goes along way. Notice the kids all listening to the guy, respecting him and not kicking off. Had he been a tyrant, I can 100% guarantee that those lads would have behaved completely differently (rightly so!!) This guy even said that the kids look out for him when he's getting an earful from someone! That says it all! I walked past a large group of young lads the other night, and genuinely complimented him on his bike and had a brief chat with them all. As I walked off, I heard them saying that was the first time any of them have been spoken to normally whilst they were together. It's sad we stereotype, although I know it's human nature to do so.
