    This is very scary.

    Our minister of police wants to take away the private security sector's ability to use semi-automatic rifles to carry out their work.

    (unless I'm the one that's being blond and this is old hat)

    Thank you sir. At one stage I was involved with the security industry and even then it was illegal for a security officer to use his private weapon for security work. The security provider were to provide these weapons. (Register to sign weapons in and out etc.) Very few company's to my knowledge complied with this. Problem I have with all this is that very few security officers have any weapons training. At one stage I had information (Police friend) about response officers with criminal records running around with fire-arm, doing response. Imo the security industry can be our biggest enemy

    problem is that this is a slippery path. if security guards dont need slr's then the general public is next.... We all know Mr Celee too well now from his recent comments.

    PSIRA is already regulating the security industry. It may not be perfect, but it is certainly better regulated than the SAPS currently is.

    There will always be bad apples. That is not the norm by which the whole group should be measured. If it were, then politicians should be executed on sight...

    At the risk of derailing the thread:

    If the politicians and their protective teams really were threatened, they would move them around without drawing all that much attention.

    No, the blue light brigades are not about protection at all. They are there to show each and everyone how important their passenger thinks he is.
