To the police, good job done.

Good! Another SCUMBAG the planet!

He’s a fucking security guard, of course he can carried a gun!!!

Having gun doesn't mean you are safe enough,but more dangerous on yourself actually,when facing policemen or other authorities.

So does he have a license to carry? If he was a security, what was the crime? Being Hispanic and owning a gun?

Los Angeles city officials move to replace some LAPD officers with unarmed crisis respondersLA City Council members are angling to replace some LAPD officers with unarmed responders — and the city's police union supports the move. The proposed replacements wouldn't be affiliated with law enforcement agencies, and they'd handle nonviolent calls. This works really well in the UK because there are fewer guns on the streets. In America, that's not so easy, but this is a good first step. lol when you're in trouble the police are minutes away...oh wait they sent the non-violence team...please a couple of more minutes while they call the real police.
