I respect anyone's decision to do an honest day's work in exchange for a check. And I respect the role of law enforcement, and that dedication even more. But personally I can't see protecting other people's stuff if all I have is a knife, pepper spray, a baton, and then workman's comp if things go south.

And I think that DT's response to this should be mandatory reading for anyone who considers a role in private security.
