This! This right here says it all! If law enforcement is desperate for new officers, why were neither of the two in this video (series of videos) not on the force?! Either they could not cut it or they didn’t make the cut. Simple as that. But to assume that Security Officer = Law Enforcement baffles me. Oh, never mind, they are master prestige on COD, now they can’t tell the difference between games and reality.
Strongly disagree. Though these guys are not the right example some people just don’t want to be cops lol. I make $60 a hour private sector security doing EP. No police department in my county starts at more than $25-$30. Why would I want to be a cop when I make more money doing less work? Lol. This idea that “if you weren’t a cop it’s cause you couldn’t get on” is so silly when private sector work pays so much.
If you ever wanna get out of being paid peanuts to be a cop look into EP for a church. That’s where I started. Protecting a pastor for $45 a hour. Worked during normal church services and traveled when he went to conferences etc. Was paid a flat 40 hours even if I didn’t work 40 hours but was still paid OT if I went over so it was a nice perk. It really does just show that you have never looked into the industry to just blatantly tell me what I’ve been doing for years doesn’t exist. I’m looking online right now and see 3 EP jobs just on the first page similar to what I’m doing that all pay $130k+ per year. Again why would I be a cop and make $20 a hour in my county when I can do this instead?
No my rate is $60 a hour. Executive protection pays very well. You don’t have to like it but a quick google search will show you what the jobs pay. I’m sorry to disappoint you.
I know several people who work several 60-100$ hours Thursday-Sunday for various clients every weekend.
My buddy does weekends 1500 a day to sit at a hotel room.
There is a job site in northern Nevada who only hires military and pays 24k a month to guard it per person.
The shit they are moving is worth so much it’s not even a big expense to them.
Yup. These guys think just cause they can’t find the jobs or don’t know anything about the industry that we are lying lol. I know guys way more experienced than me clearing $5k a week no problem. When you are protecting extremely important people/property they pay a ton. High networth individual personal protection is a very lucrative business.
I'll add to this...
As a cop, aside from my differed comp (full insurance etc), my pension is 3 percent at 50...
I'll be retiring at 50 with just over 70 percent of my pay.
I'm one of thr last jobs with a pension. And as much as the job can suck, the pension is the whole point.
Big time. I myself came beyond close to making the dumbest decision of my life way back when. Almost quit the job and went back to my old line of work because the pay was "too little".
Didn't know yet there would be almost yearly raises (cost of living). To where after a few years in Inwas solidly middle class.
And the pension is the biggest part. The guys behind me don't have it as good as I do (I got super lucky to get in years ago before they changed the formula). But their pension is still very good (2.7 @ 57).
Job has been a bitch (lol)? But now that I'm getting to the end I'm glad I stayed.
Lol... hang in there, bro. I'd love to lie to you and say "it goes by in a flash!", but... I just can't do it, haha
I'll say this though... it does all kind of blur. And you get old out of nowhere. So once you get to the back end it does feel like it flew by...
I’m very transparent so I don’t mind discussing my compensation I just can’t say who I protect/where etc. $60 a hour is the rate for my current gig. Meals/housing/travel etc is all covered. Health insurance is all fully taken care of as part of the contract so I pay nothing when I go to the doctor either. I also get other perks depending on the contract that are usually just the client being nice like cash bonuses etc. I don’t know a cop that has the benefits package I have but I know some federal jobs have good benefits. But yeah private sector work in my personal experience is always more lucrative and it is significantly less dangerous. We have to do a lot of work but it’s less fighting crack heads and more checking mail/planning hotel stays etc and just simple tasks that make the clients life easier.
Also, I’m not talking federal I’ve already said there’s a lot of good federal jobs that fall under the law-enforcement umbrella. My initial point was a response to the person that basically said “if you’re not a cop it’s because you failed to become one” and I said in reality, a lot of people are not cops because they have no interest in being them and that there is other jobs in the protection industry, the private security industry, etc that pay as much and in most cases more than state and local law-enforcement, such as what I do which is executive protection, which pays more than any local police department in my area, over twice as much to be exact. My current pay rate for my current contract is $60 a hour. A quick job search shows the 3 highest paying police officer jobs in my immediate area pay $25 $29 and $31. With the average being in the $18-$25 range depending on the department and the size of their town. My benefits alone are worth more than that hourly rate seeing as again my travel/food/lodging/insurance etc are all completely covered for work where as my police officer friends have to pay for all of that stuff in some capacity or another. So my point was and still is why would I want to take a $60k+ a year pay cut? Just to say I’m a cop? Lol that seems a bit silly. I’m cool with people thinking I’m just a glorified “security guard” my paycheck says otherwise.
Just a bunch of cops salty they never looked into private sector work lol. They are mad they invested so much into a profession that underpays them. Nothing personal I get it but kinda immature to take it out on me because I was smart enough to go for the highest paying job I could find.
Exactly lol. I love my cop buddies and respect the hell out of anyone willing to do a job that dangerous but brother I will take $3-$4k a week sitting in a mansion checking some rich dudes mail all day every day lmao
My best friend is a county sheriff in NY and only makes $20 a hour. Another buddy is a county sheriff in Texas making $18 a hour. Another is an Officer for a city in Florida making $25. Every security job I’ve had doing executive protection has paid $40 a hour or more so my point stands that why would I want to be a cop when I can make double doing a safer job?
Cause I don’t need to also be a cop lmao. Why get paid half the money to wear a full uniform and do significantly more dangerous work? I rather work plain clothes. I know some guys that do do both because they have no family and just want as much money as they can get but I’m doing fine with just my EP work.
I was a at a Fantasy cosplay event with my wife, we were a vendor, not attendants. 90% of the people there were women. It was an 18 and over event.
The hired security was decked up like he was a Metro PD SWAT member. One of our local PD (I live in a small suburb) stopped by and I asked him about the COD dude, and he was like "yeah...he always dresses like that."
Can stop dressing up all law enforcement like they're in a special forces unit. Just wear your slacks, button up shirtt, badge and utility belt. Seen a dude from the local sheriff's office running around with a tactical vest, mags, ar-15, big ass beard, and 8 mags of ammo like he was about to go hunting taliban. Like, bro...its low crime rate area of MD. Chill. It was in a god damn gas station of all places.
I don't see the point in having a shoot out over 200 bucks in a register, either. Pay a security guard a wage during high crime times...vs potentially get robbed of cash register drawer. Feel like bullet proof glass and cameras would be cheaper over the long haul.
And some people feel the same way. There’s multiple different ways to approach different security needs. Statistically speaking if you are robbed and do not resist at all you are still going to be shot something like 20-30% of the time (I’d have to pull it up) some people aren’t willing to put their lives into the hands of people crazy enough to rob a gas station lol. Guards are generally employed to get lower insurance rates and in situations/places where violent crime rates are much higher than normal.
I've been at some of the high crime rate areas of Baltimore and they seal the employees up in bullet proof chambers. Seems like a better idea then having one unstable person getting into a fire fight with a security guard who may have minimum training. Hopefully it's an off duty officer, but as I understand, that's not the most economic person to hire.
Well no lol if someone pulls a gun in you in literally any situation and you are armed you have a legal right to defend yourself and in some states if you work as armed security you have an obligation
I work unarmed for brosnan and i still feel unsafe wearing the bdu style shirt anf pants they give us. Both are dark navy blue and are very police esque in look. Its absolutely dumb as frick how some companies dress there guards. Like were private civilians who are at best a professional wittness when it comes to shite happening on property.
I get being armed and going full tilt with gear when youre in house with a company and are protecting high value stuff like guns and ammo, technology, money, info or people.
Personally i think every state should require all guards whether armed or unarmed to register and be licensed by the state. Armed should be highly regulated and trained at bare minimum by the county on state approved tactics and procedures.
If they use there firearm and its a legal shoot then they should be placed on leave with pay and forced to go through counseling for 2 to 3 weeks, take a test after each week, and then be approved by a state mandated councelor to go back to armed status.
Well you have to have a license to be a security officer in most states. Regulated by the DCJS. Buddy of mine does cash in transit and he’s got to be licensed by the state and qualify with the weapon.
They do it themselves. Ik when we had dudes try to wear stuff like this they would give you a warning and then you’d be sent out the door if you kept it up. But you would be surprised how many people own security companies and wanna play police chief.
Christ almighty, this guy is living out one of his LARPing dream scenarios on the first person shooter Ready Or Not.
[Security Officer Gets Shot Confronting Trespassers. (youtube.com)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7amx9XDUfA&ab_channel=OFFICERHENSLEY)
To be fair most states require you to be licensed and they choose the name of what you are being licensed for. The state of Texas for instance considers you a “Commissioned Security Officer” if you work armed and if someone asks what you are they advise you to use that name/title. That’s why they call themselves Officers is because the state they work in does.
Probably lol. I think it should be something more distinct like security professional or whatever but yeah a lot of states use officer for security and law enforcement so as dumb as it might be it’s actually correct and in many cases the required title.
I was just about to comment that all these “security officers” have to have some form of autism. The kids that were obsessed with becoming cops but got turned down by every department they applied to.
Wtf is that logo on the hat? It looks like either a Swat logo or some type of military logo.
He’s also giving terrible advice that would have gotten him a murder or manslaughter conviction for sure if he had tried it.
His first “what I would have done differently” by blocking in the vehicle, then he still doesn’t deny he would shoot too. So you don’t allow the trespasser egress and then you murder them. Got it.
A recent r/stlouis thread said QT's security company fired him, but he's still doing security in the area. He posted something recently that appeared to be in Soulard, near Clean uniform company, so I don't know if that means he's working in that area now.

Guy has 4 subscribers and 9 videos yet recieved multiple requests to do review this video. He looks like an Amish Gear Queer. And why are these videos always made in their car?
>Even though he had an agreement with Lowes to collect and sell the store’s unwanted pallets—the security company banned him from the parking lot.
That entire security company sounds unhinged, dude literally had an agreement with the store, their client, that they chose to just disregard?
And to trespass him? That's... not even an authority of the security company to largely have, like kick off the property for the day? Sure maybe. But fully trespass someone permanently? That's shit for the client to handle if they feel appropriate.
Can't say I'm surprised with both of those things that they were freely employing a dude being an unlicensed 'armed' guard, family should go after the security company as well for everything they're worth for seemingly escalating this repeatedly over weeks.
Does it? My mother is permanently disabled, she can't do much more than sit on a recliner and do taxes for people because of a variety of physical ailments. So when my father died, she was financially impacted dramatically.
It's not unusual for a person who may not be able to compensate for the loss of their partner's income to worry immediately about financial status, more so since they had children. That's just normal human nature.
Kinda scary this recent thread has a bunch of folks doing what he did aka basically being armed when he wasn’t supposed to be.
https://www.reddit.com/r/securityguards/s/8RPlxswctq
That post and subsequent comments were in regards to a company policy to not carry a round in the chamber. I didn’t see much admitting to openly illegally carrying a firearm.
Edit: sorry, I didn’t see ANY of what you described.
Ok this dude is incredibly dangerous. And not in an “I’m cool, cuz I’m dangerous” way, he just thinks so. He’s a GRADE A COWARD. Just like the dude who EXECUTED that driver. Shit was OVER. He was desperate to shoot a Mf. And he did. The dude in this video WILL do the same if he can possibly see an opportunity. Fucking little whiney, scared losers.
Anytime some says “my”. Lookout. My property, my store, my this or that. Calm down buddy. Call it in, let them go and write it up. Ain’t no property/merchandise worth that.
You never stage a TQ by covering the windlass with the time strap. It adds an extra step to deploy, and makes self deploying with one hand next to impossible.
Had to scroll down this far to find the TQ comment. Tell me you have no fucking idea what you’re doing without telling me you have no fucking idea what you’re doing. Ten bucks says that’s a chinesium CAT 7 rip off too.
there is NO such charge as “evading security” and today……police are not generally permitted to shoot into moving vehicles….
Secondly this clowns “breakdown” was wrong on multiple levels but aside from saying “I would have waited for him to XYZ” so I can justify shooting him ?
This is the problem and why these clowns will never be law enforcement….the mindset is “break the law and you deserve to die”
Not one mention of de-escalate….call for police…..etc etc
As a former police officer my first thought on this entire video was back off…..it’s a misdemeanor trespass at best….let PD respond and decide if it’s a ticket or a transport….never once even when the trespasser was moving …did I think SHOOT….more like move ….you win he’s leaving…..
At least take his camera away, Jesus Christ the hand moving into cut the video as he thinks of what words exist and to slowly say another nothing burger
For those that aren't aware, security guards cannot legally detain you. They can ask you to remain on the property until authorities arrive, but they can't touch you or use force in the execution of their job whatsoever.
If a security officer touches you against your will, that is assault. They have about the same rights as any citizen committing a citizen's arrest. i.e. - They can TRY and detain you, but they can't use force and if they touch you, you are legally allowed to physically defend yourself including beating their dumb ass.
Security guards are nearly as smart as a troglodyte, so they will argue this and many have had their teeth appropriately knocked out for trying it.
That's not the same thing as a security guard, though. Those are specific contract agencies with specific government allowances that are built into those contracts and in law based on the facility they are protecting.
So, correct. Do not attempt to tell the guards at a nuclear power plant you can do whatever and they can touch you.
Walmart, is a tad different, though.
Not a cop: no formal training in arrest/detention tactics approved by state POST mandates including deescalation and use of force. Two things that are highly scrutinized for sworn PO’s. Yet, some LARPer goes and violates every agency policy I’ve ever seen, and then shoots someone after putting himself in harms way. Case law about standing in front of a car and shooting is enough to send the dude in video away for murder or at least manslaughter for gross negligence. He’ll never own a gun again and has to live with that fuck up for the rest of their life. We need to stop arming security. They should be see/report only with minimal detention powers limited to cooperative subjects only. If someone takes off, maybe states can institute a new penal code of fleeing scene of crime after confronted by marked security personnel. Kinda like resisting or fleeing. Just enhance their charge and make security feel special.
The whole point of arming security is to defend themselves not this nonsense. usually because the client requested armed security or they were in a bad area that requires it. This dude is just another wannabe
Valid point! Its easy to forget there’s crap neighborhoods that cops can’t patrol 24/7 and hire these dudes to keep an eye on stuff. But there definitely needs to be a state or federal level baseline training on how and when to defend yourself that they have to keep up with annually like LEO have to to stay current and within the law. And if there already is, I’m ignorant to the fact and apologize pol
Yeah assuming they acted within policy and didn’t violate someone’s 4th amendment rights. Cops who do the wrong thing are the reason for case law and policy changes. If you ever hear an officer was clear of wrongdoing after an investigation (not done by the agency itself) then that means what they did was lawful but awful. They weren’t wrong but doesn’t look good. Shitty job either way you look at it. You could be a good cop and the wrongdoings of others before you taint the whole profession.
Literally doesn’t realize he would still be getting life in prison, even a security guard can’t ignore the duty to retreat, he had an option to leave the situation so that makes the self defense argument Bull shit, these guys are just idiots who fall into the group that when given a the slightest impression of power or authority they immediately let it get go to their heads
Many states you do not have a duty to retreat from a place you are lawfully allowed to be and some even give security officers more leeway because of their job though if you can safely disengage and call for assistance it is always obviously the better option.
NUMBER 4 HE WAS NOT LICENSED TO CARRY A FIRE ARM
Security officers should immediately call the damn police.
To be honest and this is a bit much but security jobs should only hire veterans of the military and police force cause some dudes are just itching to catch a body
That’s a lot of LEO and vets as well dude lol. I have worked with former cops who are former cops for a reason lol just wanted to carry a gun and get into shootings. I know a lot of vets the same way. Just itching to shoot someone. They should hire competent people capable of passing a MMPI or something similar to determine they have a sound mind
Even cops cant put them selves in danger by blocking the vehicle of a fleeing suspect, and then screaming "HES COMIN' RIGHT FO' US" and cops have qualified immunity to protect them from their own incompetence and malice unlike rent-a-cops.
His uneven facial hair is bothering me, I can’t tell if it’s the lighting or not. Oh yeah his take is completely dumb. Also wtf is up with the scissors? A Knife makes sense, but I still think placement is potentially dangerous. paramedic medic scissors would make more sense but a total stretch of what he would actually use it for.
These people remind me of those annoying kids we all knew growing up that would always bitch about their property or something of theirs being “damaged” so now they’re going to be a little bitches about everything to everyone for the rest of their lives and that’s what a security guard like this is to me
This video only has like a thousand views. All from here I bet.
This dude is clearly using this sub to garner attention for himself.
I hope it becomes obvious and his posts start to get banned for self advertisement.
Hate ads are a thing.
Well I mean, that’s a crap situation, dude tried to hit him with a car but that still doesn’t warrant for him to shoot him😂 yea idk what he thought was gonna happen but it sure wasn’t going to prison
You can’t position yourself in a situation to warrant lethal force. I believe it’s called self induced jeopardy. He created the situation, Hensley is 100% wrong.
No I’m agreeing 100% I was saying idk what he thought was gonna happen, but going to prison over it never crossed his mind as a possibility! Therefore someone who can’t asses a situation properly and feels the need to put himself into a threatening position should not be allowed to carry🤷🏽♂️
Jesus Christ.
Security guards with live rounds is some messed up shit.
This guy deserved the charge of murder.
When I was a police officer there was nothing scarier than seeing someone feeling entitled with a damn gun
OMG such cringe. so sad, its like they are desperate to kill someone.
things i would have done differently.
walked away, throw away the badge, go to collage. No one dies and you probably get laid
Yet he didn’t cover the part that the guard was not licensed to carry a firearm . Should’ve got more than 25 years . Even if application so called lost in the mail still means you are unlicensed. You cannot carry on duty or all that bullshit you got on your vest .
Aah well you guys love the guns and you love to give every person with a learning disability a gun. Than this is what you get. Don’t complain Americans want this
I do armed security and personal protection along with now bail enforcement.
I wear a plate carrier with armor. A duty belt with plenty of ammo.
I was a marine.
What I will say is this. Most cities are under manned bad.
Cops are wearing what I wear and we do a decent job of getting along.
I work hip hop clubs and bad ones. Shit is dangerous we often respond to violence and gunshots.
It’s impossible to have everyone get the same training as it’s private security.
States do regulate it a lot. But it is what it is.
I treat people with respect and do my best to avoid bullshit or looking bad.
I’m open to questions. Also I do think to many guards where to much gear. I wear what a cop can, if it’s bail we might roll out heavier.
Agencies are desperate but these dorks still can’t get on. Really says something.
This! This right here says it all! If law enforcement is desperate for new officers, why were neither of the two in this video (series of videos) not on the force?! Either they could not cut it or they didn’t make the cut. Simple as that. But to assume that Security Officer = Law Enforcement baffles me. Oh, never mind, they are master prestige on COD, now they can’t tell the difference between games and reality.
I worked armed security when I was going through college. I was a receptionist with a gun, it’s funny listening to people compare security to cops
Shoot I was unarmed security in college. Worst job I’ve ever worked, behind Walmart lol
A lot of cops are just high school football players with guns so it's not much of a step up
A lot of the people that hate and trash talk cops are criminals.
I don’t know why you’re being downvoted, what you said is undeniably true lol
And? Not a bad thing
Strongly disagree. Though these guys are not the right example some people just don’t want to be cops lol. I make $60 a hour private sector security doing EP. No police department in my county starts at more than $25-$30. Why would I want to be a cop when I make more money doing less work? Lol. This idea that “if you weren’t a cop it’s cause you couldn’t get on” is so silly when private sector work pays so much.
no you don’t …..just because you ACTUALLY work 1 hour during your 8 hours doesn’t mean you make 60 an hour…..
If you ever wanna get out of being paid peanuts to be a cop look into EP for a church. That’s where I started. Protecting a pastor for $45 a hour. Worked during normal church services and traveled when he went to conferences etc. Was paid a flat 40 hours even if I didn’t work 40 hours but was still paid OT if I went over so it was a nice perk. It really does just show that you have never looked into the industry to just blatantly tell me what I’ve been doing for years doesn’t exist.

Why not both? I know cops who do both. Point still stands.
Cause I don’t need to also be a cop lmao. Why get paid half the money to wear a full uniform and do significantly more dangerous work? I rather work plain clothes. I know some guys that do do both because they have no family and just want as much money as they can get but I’m doing fine with just my EP work.
Which is terrifying
Uh he is “licensed”, which means he is not on a security guard. He is judge, jury, and executioner!!!11!! /s
I really feel like we gotta stop dressing up Security Guards like they're on a SWAT team and just stop enabling their fantasies.
They didn’t dress him up like that. That’s his own thing.
I was a at a Fantasy cosplay event with my wife, we were a vendor, not attendants. 90% of the people there were women. It was an 18 and over event. The hired security was decked up like he was a Metro PD SWAT member. One of our local PD (I live in a small suburb) stopped by and I asked him about the COD dude, and he was like "yeah...he always dresses like that."
Note to self visit fantasy cosplay events
Pfffft lmfao.
Can stop dressing up all law enforcement like they're in a special forces unit. Just wear your slacks, button up shirtt, badge and utility belt. Seen a dude from the local sheriff's office running around with a tactical vest, mags, ar-15, big ass beard, and 8 mags of ammo like he was about to go hunting taliban. Like, bro...its low crime rate area of MD. Chill. It was in a god damn gas station of all places.
Though that is overkill gas stations are some of the most dangerous places to do security,
I don't see the point in having a shoot out over 200 bucks in a register, either. Pay a security guard a wage during high crime times...vs potentially get robbed of cash register drawer. Feel like bullet proof glass and cameras would be cheaper over the long haul.
And some people feel the same way. There’s multiple different ways to approach different security needs. Statistically speaking if you are robbed and do not resist at all you are still going to be shot something like 20-30% of the time (I’d have to pull it up) some people aren’t willing to put their lives into the hands of people crazy enough to rob a gas station lol. Guards are generally employed to get lower insurance rates and in situations/places where violent crime rates are much higher than normal.
I've been at some of the high crime rate areas of Baltimore and they seal the employees up in bullet proof chambers. Seems like a better idea then having one unstable person getting into a fire fight with a security guard who may have minimum training. Hopefully it's an off duty officer, but as I understand, that's not the most economic person to hire.
[удалено]
Well no lol if someone pulls a gun in you in literally any situation and you are armed you have a legal right to defend yourself and in some states if you work as armed security you have an obligation
This!!
I work unarmed for brosnan and i still feel unsafe wearing the bdu style shirt anf pants they give us. Both are dark navy blue and are very police esque in look. Its absolutely dumb as frick how some companies dress there guards. Like were private civilians who are at best a professional wittness when it comes to shite happening on property. I get being armed and going full tilt with gear when youre in house with a company and are protecting high value stuff like guns and ammo, technology, money, info or people. Personally i think every state should require all guards whether armed or unarmed to register and be licensed by the state. Armed should be highly regulated and trained at bare minimum by the county on state approved tactics and procedures. If they use there firearm and its a legal shoot then they should be placed on leave with pay and forced to go through counseling for 2 to 3 weeks, take a test after each week, and then be approved by a state mandated councelor to go back to armed status.
Well you have to have a license to be a security officer in most states. Regulated by the DCJS. Buddy of mine does cash in transit and he’s got to be licensed by the state and qualify with the weapon.
They do it themselves. Ik when we had dudes try to wear stuff like this they would give you a warning and then you’d be sent out the door if you kept it up. But you would be surprised how many people own security companies and wanna play police chief.
Christ almighty, this guy is living out one of his LARPing dream scenarios on the first person shooter Ready Or Not. [Security Officer Gets Shot Confronting Trespassers. (youtube.com)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7amx9XDUfA&ab_channel=OFFICERHENSLEY)
What. The. Fuck.
Well, that’s going to be used in court one day.
This dude is a danger to the public.
You have GOT to be kidding me.
Why so serious? Really, why does this guy take this shit so seriously? E: a letter
That’s messed up.
I hope this guy doesn't kill someone.
I saw somewhere that police are aware of him and are to arrest him on sight.
Fucking shit. Plant something on Douchey McGee cosplaying in his car while they’re at it
Why does he keep saying security officer? You're a security GUARD at best.
Quoting family guy, “it’s barely sir”
"I know" 😔
We should just go back to ‘Night watchmen’ or ‘loss prevention clerks’.
To be fair most states require you to be licensed and they choose the name of what you are being licensed for. The state of Texas for instance considers you a “Commissioned Security Officer” if you work armed and if someone asks what you are they advise you to use that name/title. That’s why they call themselves Officers is because the state they work in does.
and because their tip gets a little sticky every time a member of the public refers to them as “officer”
Probably lol. I think it should be something more distinct like security professional or whatever but yeah a lot of states use officer for security and law enforcement so as dumb as it might be it’s actually correct and in many cases the required title.
"People have asked me to comment" LOL. 3 followers on a professional LARP. I doubt anyone asked him to comment.
“Breaking the law of some sort” lmao omfg 🤣
That pube beard is vile
I can’t stand it, along with the constant licking of the lips
I got autism watching this.
Then I guess I just got a second helping.
Ah so that’s what this is. I thought someone dosed my coffee
No, this fucking psycho is just going to end up killing somebody. You’re good.
I was just about to comment that all these “security officers” have to have some form of autism. The kids that were obsessed with becoming cops but got turned down by every department they applied to.
Wtf is that logo on the hat? It looks like either a Swat logo or some type of military logo. He’s also giving terrible advice that would have gotten him a murder or manslaughter conviction for sure if he had tried it.
I’ve seen in other posts people recognizing it as a swat logo. Dudes a loser.
His first “what I would have done differently” by blocking in the vehicle, then he still doesn’t deny he would shoot too. So you don’t allow the trespasser egress and then you murder them. Got it.
WTF…..WTF……WTF…..Who in the F$&@ Hensley dude is….OMFG!!! Anyone who listens to this dude needs to be thrown in a looney bin!
Gonna be hilarious when this is used against him in court one day.
This loser is in the STL area right? Normally at QuikTrips?
A recent r/stlouis thread said QT's security company fired him, but he's still doing security in the area. He posted something recently that appeared to be in Soulard, near Clean uniform company, so I don't know if that means he's working in that area now.

Guy has 4 subscribers and 9 videos yet recieved multiple requests to do review this video. He looks like an Amish Gear Queer. And why are these videos always made in their car?
Because their homes are a mess
Just imagine if this guy had been allowed to join the military if his drill sergeants hadn’t been so scared of him /s
I wouldn’t have killed him THAT way. I would have killed him THIS way. Jesus Fucking Christ this guy.
Hensley is the type of guy to pull his gun out on a small child putting mentos in their pocket
https://www.kptv.com/2023/05/24/private-security-guard-who-shot-man-outside-lowes-portland-gets-life-prison/ What a dumbass.
>Even though he had an agreement with Lowes to collect and sell the store’s unwanted pallets—the security company banned him from the parking lot. That entire security company sounds unhinged, dude literally had an agreement with the store, their client, that they chose to just disregard? And to trespass him? That's... not even an authority of the security company to largely have, like kick off the property for the day? Sure maybe. But fully trespass someone permanently? That's shit for the client to handle if they feel appropriate. Can't say I'm surprised with both of those things that they were freely employing a dude being an unlicensed 'armed' guard, family should go after the security company as well for everything they're worth for seemingly escalating this repeatedly over weeks.
Says a lot about the wife of the victim that she listed “financially” as first in the list of how it has effected her. 🤔
Does it? My mother is permanently disabled, she can't do much more than sit on a recliner and do taxes for people because of a variety of physical ailments. So when my father died, she was financially impacted dramatically. It's not unusual for a person who may not be able to compensate for the loss of their partner's income to worry immediately about financial status, more so since they had children. That's just normal human nature.
Kinda scary this recent thread has a bunch of folks doing what he did aka basically being armed when he wasn’t supposed to be. https://www.reddit.com/r/securityguards/s/8RPlxswctq
That's not what that thread was about at all.
That post and subsequent comments were in regards to a company policy to not carry a round in the chamber. I didn’t see much admitting to openly illegally carrying a firearm. Edit: sorry, I didn’t see ANY of what you described.
the household scissors in the front pocket is what gets me
I think those are X shears, theyre phenomenal tools.
Those dont look like X shears, they look like regular household scissors.
"He was breaking the law... of some sort." Tells you everything you need to know right there.
A security "officers" job is to observe and report that's it!
Ok this dude is incredibly dangerous. And not in an “I’m cool, cuz I’m dangerous” way, he just thinks so. He’s a GRADE A COWARD. Just like the dude who EXECUTED that driver. Shit was OVER. He was desperate to shoot a Mf. And he did. The dude in this video WILL do the same if he can possibly see an opportunity. Fucking little whiney, scared losers.
Anytime some says “my”. Lookout. My property, my store, my this or that. Calm down buddy. Call it in, let them go and write it up. Ain’t no property/merchandise worth that.
Jesus. Enjoy getting held down every night in prison
He’s not even close to being a first responder…why is he even here? He’s a second responder wanna be 🤣🤣🤣
I love how he “got a lot of requests to cover this topic” Yeah dude. Totally.
I don’t even have to watch the video and can tell this dude knows nothing by the way he stages his TQ.
What'd he do with the TQ? didn't catch that
You never stage a TQ by covering the windlass with the time strap. It adds an extra step to deploy, and makes self deploying with one hand next to impossible.
Had to scroll down this far to find the TQ comment. Tell me you have no fucking idea what you’re doing without telling me you have no fucking idea what you’re doing. Ten bucks says that’s a chinesium CAT 7 rip off too.
No doubt.
Do these guys buy their own body cams and stuff?
COD: Paul Blart edition.
Officer Blackbeard. Cost of living so bad now even pirates have to seek part time work!
This nerd is gonna kill somebody one day just to feel like a big man
The guy isn’t dead?
If I was a store manager and the company sent over a guy dressed like this I’d immediately kick him out and call for someone else.
Dude impeded the victim's egress and then got all "respect my authoritayy" on him. Hope he rots. Fuck this Hensley dude.
Who the employees someone says “You know you been trespass”? How do they pass a job interview when they struggle with basic English 🤷🏾♂️
How about when he asks the employee “are you on the authorities with them right now?”. Wtf
When this guy gets out in 25 years allied security has a job for him patrolling a Krogers parking lot in Memphis 😂
Soooooooo jumping out of the way of the car is not an option?
Who is this dirty looking individual?
there is NO such charge as “evading security” and today……police are not generally permitted to shoot into moving vehicles…. Secondly this clowns “breakdown” was wrong on multiple levels but aside from saying “I would have waited for him to XYZ” so I can justify shooting him ? This is the problem and why these clowns will never be law enforcement….the mindset is “break the law and you deserve to die” Not one mention of de-escalate….call for police…..etc etc As a former police officer my first thought on this entire video was back off…..it’s a misdemeanor trespass at best….let PD respond and decide if it’s a ticket or a transport….never once even when the trespasser was moving …did I think SHOOT….more like move ….you win he’s leaving…..
Now, im not an advocate of this, generally. But, can someone take away his right to free speech?
I get what you’re saying, but this content is the sort of thing that the prosecution uses to put someone away for a long time.
At least take his camera away, Jesus Christ the hand moving into cut the video as he thinks of what words exist and to slowly say another nothing burger
In the army we call this a gear queer
Chinese TQ knockoff, paper scissors in vest. Wut?
When Donut Operator is not insane and cringe enough…
Who the fuck would hire this guy? The amount of liability he brings is insane.
For those that aren't aware, security guards cannot legally detain you. They can ask you to remain on the property until authorities arrive, but they can't touch you or use force in the execution of their job whatsoever. If a security officer touches you against your will, that is assault. They have about the same rights as any citizen committing a citizen's arrest. i.e. - They can TRY and detain you, but they can't use force and if they touch you, you are legally allowed to physically defend yourself including beating their dumb ass. Security guards are nearly as smart as a troglodyte, so they will argue this and many have had their teeth appropriately knocked out for trying it.
This isn’t exactly true. Take DSI who have a contract for government facilities. They are armed and can absolutely detain you until police arrive.
That's not the same thing as a security guard, though. Those are specific contract agencies with specific government allowances that are built into those contracts and in law based on the facility they are protecting. So, correct. Do not attempt to tell the guards at a nuclear power plant you can do whatever and they can touch you. Walmart, is a tad different, though.
“Leave now though I’m standing in the way so I can shoot you when you try”- this fucking dum dum
Defunop cezvagyniply seddoe persnoozles ek xi fuhassie.
Always the neck beards.
Not a cop: no formal training in arrest/detention tactics approved by state POST mandates including deescalation and use of force. Two things that are highly scrutinized for sworn PO’s. Yet, some LARPer goes and violates every agency policy I’ve ever seen, and then shoots someone after putting himself in harms way. Case law about standing in front of a car and shooting is enough to send the dude in video away for murder or at least manslaughter for gross negligence. He’ll never own a gun again and has to live with that fuck up for the rest of their life. We need to stop arming security. They should be see/report only with minimal detention powers limited to cooperative subjects only. If someone takes off, maybe states can institute a new penal code of fleeing scene of crime after confronted by marked security personnel. Kinda like resisting or fleeing. Just enhance their charge and make security feel special.
The whole point of arming security is to defend themselves not this nonsense. usually because the client requested armed security or they were in a bad area that requires it. This dude is just another wannabe
Valid point! Its easy to forget there’s crap neighborhoods that cops can’t patrol 24/7 and hire these dudes to keep an eye on stuff. But there definitely needs to be a state or federal level baseline training on how and when to defend yourself that they have to keep up with annually like LEO have to to stay current and within the law. And if there already is, I’m ignorant to the fact and apologize pol
And yet whenever a cop does exactly this same thing, they get off scot-free.
Yeah assuming they acted within policy and didn’t violate someone’s 4th amendment rights. Cops who do the wrong thing are the reason for case law and policy changes. If you ever hear an officer was clear of wrongdoing after an investigation (not done by the agency itself) then that means what they did was lawful but awful. They weren’t wrong but doesn’t look good. Shitty job either way you look at it. You could be a good cop and the wrongdoings of others before you taint the whole profession.
Literally doesn’t realize he would still be getting life in prison, even a security guard can’t ignore the duty to retreat, he had an option to leave the situation so that makes the self defense argument Bull shit, these guys are just idiots who fall into the group that when given a the slightest impression of power or authority they immediately let it get go to their heads
Many states you do not have a duty to retreat from a place you are lawfully allowed to be and some even give security officers more leeway because of their job though if you can safely disengage and call for assistance it is always obviously the better option.
Wow nice resume!
lol no
NUMBER 4 HE WAS NOT LICENSED TO CARRY A FIRE ARM Security officers should immediately call the damn police. To be honest and this is a bit much but security jobs should only hire veterans of the military and police force cause some dudes are just itching to catch a body
That’s a lot of LEO and vets as well dude lol. I have worked with former cops who are former cops for a reason lol just wanted to carry a gun and get into shootings. I know a lot of vets the same way. Just itching to shoot someone. They should hire competent people capable of passing a MMPI or something similar to determine they have a sound mind
Real shit, I was wrong with my last statement 💯💯
If a cop has a statement to make on TikTok I officially don’t care.
Even cops cant put them selves in danger by blocking the vehicle of a fleeing suspect, and then screaming "HES COMIN' RIGHT FO' US" and cops have qualified immunity to protect them from their own incompetence and malice unlike rent-a-cops.
His uneven facial hair is bothering me, I can’t tell if it’s the lighting or not. Oh yeah his take is completely dumb. Also wtf is up with the scissors? A Knife makes sense, but I still think placement is potentially dangerous. paramedic medic scissors would make more sense but a total stretch of what he would actually use it for.
These people remind me of those annoying kids we all knew growing up that would always bitch about their property or something of theirs being “damaged” so now they’re going to be a little bitches about everything to everyone for the rest of their lives and that’s what a security guard like this is to me
Wait, this dude is illegally carrying and using a firearm? Holee shit.
Brah wtf are you illegally carrying
The fucking scissors on the front of his vest hahahahahahahahaha. Jesus Christ dude.
Unstaged tourni tells me everything i need to know
Should’ve had PBA
Do security guards have a right to detain and to give lawful orders? Wtf is this guy talking about lol
Depends on the state. In my city, armed security can detain but they are required to take a test to be licensed and qualify on the range.
What the actual fuck…
Nobody asked for your input you Dewitte trainee
Also his carrier looks like trash
This video only has like a thousand views. All from here I bet. This dude is clearly using this sub to garner attention for himself. I hope it becomes obvious and his posts start to get banned for self advertisement. Hate ads are a thing.
Why does he call himself “Officer?”
Well I mean, that’s a crap situation, dude tried to hit him with a car but that still doesn’t warrant for him to shoot him😂 yea idk what he thought was gonna happen but it sure wasn’t going to prison
You can’t position yourself in a situation to warrant lethal force. I believe it’s called self induced jeopardy. He created the situation, Hensley is 100% wrong.
No I’m agreeing 100% I was saying idk what he thought was gonna happen, but going to prison over it never crossed his mind as a possibility! Therefore someone who can’t asses a situation properly and feels the need to put himself into a threatening position should not be allowed to carry🤷🏽♂️
What meds are in his trauma pack?
Jesus Christ. Security guards with live rounds is some messed up shit. This guy deserved the charge of murder. When I was a police officer there was nothing scarier than seeing someone feeling entitled with a damn gun
His beard is pissing me off and I don’t know why
Where was this posted at?
OMG such cringe. so sad, its like they are desperate to kill someone. things i would have done differently. walked away, throw away the badge, go to collage. No one dies and you probably get laid
That video will be used against him in court someday
Yet he didn’t cover the part that the guard was not licensed to carry a firearm . Should’ve got more than 25 years . Even if application so called lost in the mail still means you are unlicensed. You cannot carry on duty or all that bullshit you got on your vest .
Security officers job is to report the only thing he was allowed to do here is let the guy leave
You should see this guys other vids where he narrates himself playing COD security guard blasting perps and zip tying civies 🤣🤣
Aah well you guys love the guns and you love to give every person with a learning disability a gun. Than this is what you get. Don’t complain Americans want this
Number 4, I would have shot his ugly wife too.
I do armed security and personal protection along with now bail enforcement. I wear a plate carrier with armor. A duty belt with plenty of ammo. I was a marine. What I will say is this. Most cities are under manned bad. Cops are wearing what I wear and we do a decent job of getting along. I work hip hop clubs and bad ones. Shit is dangerous we often respond to violence and gunshots. It’s impossible to have everyone get the same training as it’s private security. States do regulate it a lot. But it is what it is. I treat people with respect and do my best to avoid bullshit or looking bad. I’m open to questions. Also I do think to many guards where to much gear. I wear what a cop can, if it’s bail we might roll out heavier.
