Imagine going to prison for over 25 years for killing a guy… over wooden pallets.
Patrolling a Lowes parking lot dressed like a SWAT team member is all you need to know here.
I took a security course a couple of months ago. This video was shown in the course on what NOT to do, and the instructor made it very clear that we are NOT COPS.
This is what happens when you give untrained people a little power, a uniform and a gun.
“What’s your name?” “Officer.” That really shows the kind of power trip these guys are going through. Unacceptable.
“You’re looking for a fight” says the security guard looking for a fight.
I'm head of Security at a factory, and I can tell you that this goes deeper than just this guy. 100% that company he works for is just a rent-a-cop company. They send dudes who washed out of the LEO academy to act tough and wear tactical gear and carry weapons that they have little training over. The fact that he didn't have the proper security licensing while on the job is damning for that company. No reputable security company will let guards work without the proper paperwork in order, that is a liability nightmare. Not only that but their policy encourages basically encourages use of force.
Shouldn't that security guard be calling the real cops instead of escalating????
"i dont know what to do at this point" is the perfect example of unqualified security
“Should I render aid?” Nah dude, just stand there and keep telling everyone how not guilty you are.
“This is out of my scope” is something the parking lot security guy should have thought about 30 minutes sooner.
Detective: "were you scared before you shot?" Security Guard: "no" Every lawyer everywhere facepalms
"can't believe I just did that..." Bro you wanted to do that. You've been waiting your whole career to pull that trigger.
The fact the wife called 911 and checked on him, as well as a complete stranger running to help, while this mf questions if he should render aid, is seriously shocking to my core.
The tone of the Lowe’s worker that first arrives as the security is trying to explain himself… “we all watched you”. Everyone was ready for this guy’s power trip to end.
Its actually terrifying that these clowns are allowed to carry guns.
“He’s got dark hair and he’s an asshole” has gotta be the best description of an armed security guard ever.
Those security guards are the "I couldn't make it through police academy to bully people so this is my next best option" kind of security guards.
This psycho I went to high school with was put in prison for killing cats after we graduated. When he was released, he got a job as a security guard and got arrested again for pulling a knife on someone he was kicking out of the mall he was a guard for. A lot of people should never be security guards and there obviously needs to be significantly higher standards than what currently exist.
