is this the video you're talking about? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txiQbkdXmUA

No, there are at least three put up in relation to this company. This was only one of them.


The other two- one has them doing entry on a building at night with the theme from the TV show "COPS" playing. Then the one that was the source of my comment had pics of them running lights and dressed like SWAT....it made the State Tactical video look professional by comparison.


The link to the video I was talking about is http://www.youtube/watch?v=uC-GgNSpdVO

I got one better..

I saw a decent amount of bad trigger discipline and it looked like the camera operator got swept at least once, probably more.


Do these guys have any law enforcement powers in TX? Or is it only enforcement on contracted private property?

They only have the authority of a private citizen no matter if they are on their contracted property or not. We've got a lot of private guard companies down here that want to play cop these days and it's getting worse.

Somebody get the guy with the cowboy hat a bigger shirt. Somebody's gonna lose an eye if he bends the wrong way.
...which is why you should always wear your eye pro and not just prop it on top of your head to look cool.

10-4. Yea it is the "real" one but round here when I think of metro I think of Savannah.

I know, all the SCMPD guys think that too haha. I grew up an hour south of there then worked in States for a year. Couldn't get away fast enough!

The constant movement and "spinning" the camera plus the background noises of him handling the camera are making me queezy.

Holy sh!%, I live in Houston, home of whacktastic Houston Harris Division Patrol, who I see on a daily basis. But these guys from this video is almost unreal. Again another fine example of avoiding the word "security" at all costs, and even stepping it up a notch and avoiding the word "patrol" by putting State Tactical Anti-Crime Unit on their cars. The next Houston security company that pops up here will most likely have 6 words in it's name that sounds something kind of LE related.


All jokes aside, back off!!! I have dibs on the fat chick, and maybe the goofy pasty cowboy type person, for romantic dating possibilities.
