How do private bodyguards function against armed threats in places where it’s illegal to carry?

817 views

Private bodyguards have the same rights as every other civilian. This means that if a state prohibits people from having firearms, private bodyguards wouldn’t be treated differently.

How then will a private unarmed bodyguard be able to protect a vip in very dangerous parts of town where almost everyone (Edit: a lot of persons) has illegally obtained firearms? Are they trained to disarm people? Or do they just scatter and bail?

In places where firearms are illegal, the “everyone/a lot of persons” who have guns will have been arrested for having them and be serving very long sentences

If the law exists but isn’t enforced, then why wouldn’t the security also have them?

Further, the best defence against an attacker with a gun isn’t necessarily a gun… It is prior planning, bullet-proof vehicles, defensive driving, ability to call in greater numbers, making use of helicopters/planes, barricades, limiting exposure etc
