> they should become officers not 'security force’
Given the moral bankruptcy of America’s police force (note: force, not every officer), I could certainly see someone preferring private security handle their interests over the police.
If crime were less prevalent and the police more trusted, such a service wouldn’t have a niche to exist in.
I don’t like this slide into vigilante justice. But fighting the symptoms of the underlying problem is the wrong approach.
