I did armed security in SC and you're right, SC and GA have the most leeway with armed security as they have the same power up to a duputy sheriff when on property and working. Being security in NYC was tough esp with the liberal laws we had.

Security is security - prevent , observe and report Law enforcement is law enforcement: maintain public order, manage public safety, and enforce laws. When you confuse security with roles traditionally reserved for law enforcement you’ll as an employee or employer get a huge lawsuit and the defendant listed is gonna be in alot trouble both criminally and civilly liable.

@JG-tt4sz, There are some security companies that provide excellent service by providing armed security officers to protect citizens in both private and public venues, including schools and places of worship. They often serve as first responders and work with law enforcement officers, so it is vital that security officers are armed just in case they encounter an active shooter.

This is all good! However, there is a huge gap when it comes to training, retention, and pay. At the end its all State dependent. States like SC the division of Law Enforcement known as SLED, grants armed private security officers who are sled certified/trained the same arrest authority as a Sheriff’s Deputy on property only.

[@troyingram716]

If a guard carries a gun in public he needs a uniform. Not just a sport shirt, a tailored shirt with custom enbroidery. This way someone can't fake it.

[@dizgroontled]

Yup it’s the law. And in FL we open carry in uniform, and ccw with D/G required in plain clothes. Remember proprietary and contract security are different too.

You are also mandated to have an armed security card by said issuing state body. If not, police can stop you and you can either have your credentials revoked or get arrested esp if you falsely detain someone.

If they would make the level 3 test more difficult to pass, it would be better for everyone. There are officers now who have no business carrying a firearm. Even pay, I'm sorry that is incorrect the average pay for a level 3-armed officer in Texas is 18-20 hr.

I think what people dont realize is theirs different types and different levels of security. They all just assume theirs only low level til they see a trained high level security agent. Times are changing and people are learning. High level armed security is on its way to be extremely normalized and the new standard. They are just as important and if not more important that government funded police and agencies.

We are taught in Florida we are putting our lives at risk. If you are doing your job your risk assessment, location, and vulnerability should be assessed. Each location has its own risks bombs, chemical, people, plants, fires, all sorts of situations you go to work and risk your life. With all these locations a security guard, officer, or specialist should know the risks and so would your company, and OSHA requirements. Also where’s the CPTED for many of these locations?

I work in security and law enforcement.. criminals going to do it regardless when they see a security officer because they know there's no arrest coming as long as they can get away quick enough before law enforcement come. There's so much limitation on security and the public know that's why they jump first when they see security but once they realize you can do anything they continue

[@onemanwithin]

I agree with you on limitations corresponding with Criminals adapting to the knowledge of the limitations there are methods to assist efficiency in creating a resistance against Criminals. The issue is Clients on what they want us to do. As for arrests Felony in view, and to detain by proof he is a danger to him self and others different after he has been told to leave the property and he is in a physical altercation. Cities in different states have different Laws. And insurance.... need a lot of insurance and Law support what I mean is layers.

That "Expert" is full of it, we confront threats on a regular basis, I can't even say how many times someone has threatened to use a gun, tried to attack me or get in my face and I either have to pull my pepper spray out or put my hand on my gun and see if they're going to go for a gun. It all depends on the location and job description, if you're dealing with the public or contractors they can easily cause problems. Police have NO DUTY to save anyone's life, as ruled by the Supreme Court, "The Supreme Court ruled that cops do not have a constitutional duty to protect a citizen from harm, ruling that "[t]he duty to provide public services is owed to the public at large, and, absent a special relationship between the police and an individual, no specific legal duty exists"." Being in Armed Security / PPO for 7 years it needs to be a lot more professional, with equipment and training, it also needs to pay more, every school should have 10 or more Armed Security Officers patrolling outside or inside at all times.
