Brick-and-mortar and e-commerce stores face many challenges. States like California have put in place protections that enforce consumer theft to shield businesses and customers from financial losses, making the shopping experience safe and reliable.

New Normal: Armed Security Guards In Schools

The Kansas City School system already has armed security guards in the middle and high schools. The school is now looking for their community’s perspective on adding armed security guards to elementary schools.

It is important for students’ parents and staff to feel safe. The upside to the security detail is that they can often get to an incident much faster than law enforcement since they are on mobile patrols already.

Security: A Small Price to Pay to Protect our Community

Frank Costa, President Nexgen Protection Services – 

Cambridge City Council unanimously agreed to hire five full-time security guards with a mobile detail to improve community safety.

This is a small price to pay for taking care of our community, keeping it safe, and keeping it clean. 

Communities are seeing vandalism of storefronts, community parks, and in our neighborhoods. Securing a mobile security team helps deter lawlessness by simply being visible. Security details make a big impact in deterring vandalism and damage.  

There is a savings by hiring a security patrol, as the number of after hour incidents declines. This in turn results in fewer instances of having to send out law enforcement officers as well as the costs of cleaning up vandalism or damage. It also frees up law-officers to engage with our community and other aspects of keeping our streets safe.
