It’s the system you have. It doesn’t matter if you have accurate representation. If you don’t hold your nose and make a decision, it will be made for you.

Yes serious question. I live in Canada, at most you might see mall security. Just people with a uniform. No weapons. Anywhere else it would be strange to see “guards”. It’s been a while since I was state side. But if it’s become this common the United States has serious problems.

This is bad. But what really struck me was that a hotel had a guard? Do you have guards EVERYWHERE?
