Rejected petition Security Guards to have the right to carry handcuffs, Baton, and wear stab vest.

More details

Private security guards should be able to use the same protection as Police officers. Trained right this shouldn't be a problem. In fact Private Security Operatives do a similar job to the police. We deal with violent and dangerous people everyday in our line of work. So why shouldn't we be able to protect ourselves and other members of the public and will help in freeing up police officers.
