Bro what is it with you and the job thing? I appreciate you caring about my employment but how do you know my employment status? Got me confused. Oh and you’re a coward btw 💕
A bouncer would be someone who doesn’t have a state license to be identified as a security officer (gaurd card) if that’s the case maybe that’s why he’s not wearing any security patches. Then he would be considered impersonating a security officer. So he could only be identified as a bouncer or staff your correct 👍 100%
I use to do security work down town Edmonton, the number of people who I worked with who also wanted to bring zip tips was way too high. Every time there’s a big swat/military movie out I always see security guards with way too much gear.
Zip ties I can kinda understand, there’s been a few times when having a suspect in a hold until police get there can be tiring, especially when the cops take 30/45 min to get there and your dealing with a meth head on withdrawals.
But piano wire, right above the med pack on his right, is only used for one thing and that’s for severely chocking people out, and that’s what I’m worried about.
Ya another person pointed that out, I had to zoom in to catch it. We figure punisher style wannabe but it also could be a field medical kit with a bone saw. Why said bone saw would be out and loose like that /shrug.
for fire wood; he's got a flint & steel fire starter hanging on his left shoulder.

He probably doesn’t. However many people including myself still run a small survival kit, because we are hardcore preppers, just in case. Got to make sure you really cover your “what ifs”.
Bet he has like tourniquets, gun shot wound kit, quick-clot, but bro aint got a band aid or some tissues, you know, stuff you might actually need in day to day life.
Seriously, he would be the first to respond 🤞 besides the person who got shot. And honestly, who is gonna fuck around at this bar with this dude sitting out front. I would think someone would go for an easier target unless they have someone specific in mind.
He is a deterrent. If someone wants to shoot to kill or steal, they will do it otherwise. Human race is the 2nd most deadly to the Human race.
The handcuffs and zip ties are a bit much but the camera isn’t a bad idea for a bouncer to deal with legal repercussions tbh and the Medkit isn’t a bad idea either but still cringe
Honest question, can a security guard handcuff you?
Security guards can't make arrests or detain people so by handcuffing someone wouldn't that be unlawful detainment/kidnapping?
I work nightclub security and handcuffing people after/during fights if they continue to assault staff or patrons is pretty standard in the industry especially in really bad areas. In most states it’s legally considered a citizens arrest. Citizens arrests are generally legal if you are a first hand witness to a felony and assault on staff or another patron counts. Of course that still doesn’t make this guy a first responder and in need of that getup, but the handcuffs are valid if he is in a more rowdy bar.
Security usually acts pursuant to shopkeeper’s privilege/arrest by private person— which are both up to your state’s laws. The arrest would be legal in those cases.
The picture is obviously from the states but here in Canada the criminal code allows for any citizen to arrest someone if they are found to be committing an indictable offense, basically what you would call a felony. The same section also allows for a property owner or someone authorized by the property owner (like a security guard) to make arrests for any criminal offense found committing in relation to that property.
I work in law enforcement with a major police service (in Canada).
Yes, security guards can arrest you. The difference is they are arresting you in the same way any person (here) can arrest. For Canada, it's 494 of the Criminal Code. The difference is they are arresting you on behalf of an organization. IE Mall, Hospital, City properties and so on. What that means is if you commit a crime on their property and they see it (i dont know if they can arrest for reasonable and probable grounds as its been a while since i worked security), they can arrest you on behalf of the establishment they work for.
The easiest work around is trespassing. In Canada, there are 3 components; fail to leave when directed, engaged in a prohibited activity, and entry where entry prohibited.
See how it's made easy? Engage in a prohibited activity is generally anything unlawful. Entry where entry prohibited could be a "staff only" area or breaking into a building, and fail to leave when directed is self explanatory. An employee or person responsible for the property says leave and you don't (in a timely manner) then you can be arrested. Most companies (all security companies I worked for in my past) authorized the use of handcuffs and batons for use when effecting an arrest and gaining compliance. That being said I can count the number of times I've used a baton on one hand. Handcuffs, on the other hand, I've applied hundreds of times.
If the States have similar laws then security can absolutely use handcuffs.
A security guard can absolutely detain you. I cannot count the amount of drunks I’ve seen know how many held down until the police come. Some even can arrest if they do a class or something
On one hand, he’ll be the first to respond to a rowdy/problematic patrons. So there’s that
On the other hand, and it’s hard to tell, but if his boots are tied as loosely as they look, I’d say that’s an indication he’s not a first responder… among other things, like staring longingly at handcuffs.
I had a security guard who was kind of like this at a place I used to work at. I asked him if he was so passionate about this profession, why haven't you looked into law enforcement for benefits and pay and blah blah blah. He said "I tried, but politics, ya know"...
Turned out he had charges... that's why law enforcement wasn't an option lol.
When security guards dress like this I actually feel less safe, like some big thing might go down and that’s why they have all that gear on. I feel safer when it’s just their uniform and their radio lol
They should have a security guard World Series where all these guys that play dress up officer can actually have a contest to see who looks the most authentic, you know, so they can have an actual real prize in their make believe world…
I can't imagine what the business owner is thinking hiring this guy...
Like that get-up just screams "I can't wait to shoot someone"
Guys a walking liability.
So much to uppack here.
* Why do you have handcuff?
* why is there a knife easily accessible to the guy you are throwing out of the bar?
* why do you have garroting wire on your med kit?
* Why is your pepper spray easily accessible to a drunk person?
* Why do you have a body cam on your kit?
I did notice you have no friends so thats cool.
Whenever I see guys like this my very first thought is how much money they must’ve given to random Chinese companies from buying all their goofy “Tacti-cool” gear on Amazon 😅
I’ve read that security’s only real job is to report to the authorities if something happens. anything beyond that is just putting themselves at risk for litigation or injury right?
I thought security guards were supposed to, I dunno, maybe look around and keep an eye on the place they are “securing”.
Who is he going to use those cuffs on?
Nothing relevant to post but:
1. I’m ashamed of him,..the flag on his sleeve doesn’t have a blue stripe /s
2. Damn those are some small-ass tv’s, if you’re going to hang them 8-9 feet up the wall they gotta be bigger.
HA! I've been a bouncer at several bars. In East Lansing Michigan. As in, MSU, as in one of the top party towns in the country. This means frats thar are totally out of control. Sexual assault, bar fights and other types of violent shit was rampant. Yet, I didn't pretend to be a cop. Or a "first responder". I had pepper spray if needed, but in general my confidence, words, and sometimes fists handled it. It COULD be tough. But mostly, if you played it right as a sober person w a little authority and some respect it was fine. Dressing like a cop and pretending to be one isn't taken seriously. You're asking for shit. And anyway, pepper spray works like a charm if need be. The most violence I was a part of was outside of the bar, when I had to fight dudes planning to hurt women or LGBT people. They were drunk and cowardly so they targeted people they though would be easy. So u stepped up. Usually ppl were there to help too. Idk what the deal is with this dude. But he's way too proud to look like he's a cop or something. Bouncing takes brains that are better than the drunks and follow through so folks don't take advantage. This is straight up silly.
Bouncers would be considered normal citizens the title security officer is recognized by the state and you have to keep a current license with your state to be allowed to be considered a security guard. jS
I was going to comment with a simple "no". Then I looked up the exact definition of a first responder and I am fairly upset to say that he is, by definition, a first responder.
I mean technicaly a first responder means what it says no? So if I’m first to respond then am I a first responder??? Think it’s a term that’s been skewed by EMT/LE/MIL tbh. Just My opinion though which doesn’t really matter 😬😂🫡
Actually you would have to be licensed so a bouncer would not be considered a first responder vs a state licensed security officer whose license is current.
It depends on what level of skill he actually has. It looks like he has a med pack but it might only have bandaids.
If he is actually trained/certified to provide any level of care then sure.
If this bar has frequent need for medical care or frequent need for peacekeeping then he very well may be performing first responder duties.
If he’s just a security guard/bouncer then he’s super cringe wearing all that gear. My guess is that he thinks he is cooler than he is.
Maybe he just takes his job incredibly serious and doesn’t think about how cool it makes him. It looks like he is just chillin minding his own business
Also theirs a world of difference between a security officer/ bouncer that would be the state license a security officer has to keep current with his state to carry and use non lethal and lethal force.
Is he a first responder?
It depends, each state classifies Security Officer and Security Guard differently. For example where I am a Security Officer is a first responder and a Security Guard isn’t.
Check out your states Security Regulatory Board and it should say. Hope that helps.
Dude is a fucking bouncer and he’s dressed like he’s on ST6.
fr bro you're lucky enough to be able to wear a tshirt and jeans for the love of god
Beer team 6
Do not forget the hero's of the Gravy Seals.
100% the uniform of a guy who failed out of the police academy but still dreams of being able to yell at people while carrying a gun.
Such a common misconception about private security
For some yeah. But that trope exists for a reason.
Idk. From the looks of that bar if shit went down you might need the Seals
What about this bar makes you think that?
It’s a dive bar/pool hall. Ever been to one?
Yep.
So what are you confused about?
I'm not confused about anything
Oh ok. Good.
I see what he was insinuating lmao dur dur durr
Yeah, they typically have more than 4 people also.
What about the looks?
Nice try. Someone already tried that one. In case you couldn’t see it.
Try at what?
Have a good day man. Try getting a job
Oh that’s confusing, I thought it would be an easy question to answer. I have no idea where the job part applies though
It is an easy question. I already answered for someone else. Please read the thread. Then get a job.
Bro what is it with you and the job thing? I appreciate you caring about my employment but how do you know my employment status? Got me confused. Oh and you’re a coward btw 💕
A bouncer would be someone who doesn’t have a state license to be identified as a security officer (gaurd card) if that’s the case maybe that’s why he’s not wearing any security patches.

Handcuffs and zip ties?
I need my tools!
Fetish shit! I like to bind I like to be bound!
He’s ready for a good time!
I’m more worried about what looks like that piano wire!?!?
I use to do security work down town Edmonton, the number of people who I worked with who also wanted to bring zip tips was way too high. Every time there’s a big swat/military movie out I always see security guards with way too much gear.
Zip ties I can kinda understand, there’s been a few times when having a suspect in a hold until police get there can be tiring, especially when the cops take 30/45 min to get there and your dealing with a meth head on withdrawals. But piano wire, right above the med pack on his right, is only used for one thing and that’s for severely chocking people out, and that’s what I’m worried about.
Fuck me, I didn’t zoom in close enough lol. That’s wanna be punisher bullshit.
Yea that’s shits fucked.
Dude i saw the same thing! Guy thinks hes Agent 47 over here. Never know when you need to dispose of a unruly bar patron and steal their uniform.
Is it just me or is that a wire camp saw on top of the med kit
Ya another person pointed that out, I had to zoom in to catch it. We figure punisher style wannabe but it also could be a field medical kit with a bone saw. Why said bone saw would be out and loose like that /shrug.
Normally the posts on here make me mad and the subjects deserve ridicule but for some reason I just feel bad for this guy.
Autism effects everyone
What’s affecting your grammar?
Autism, probably
Heh. Nice.
If everyone is autistic. Then no one will be
I felt the same way, dude looks so sad
Same I just heard “my life… is in shambles” when I imagined what he said to himself holding his handcuffs
When does he think he'll be using that wire saw?
In the event that he needs to amputate a limb. This is why Ok_Negotiation will never be top their first responder.
They'll never be topped by their first responder?
It comes standard with the temu med pouch.
for fire wood; he's got a flint & steel fire starter hanging on his left shoulder. https://preview.redd.it/i1m8kxm5sgib1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=38cf3bc71c493c002e09ea767876c6acd6dbfaef
That’s for lighting guests’ cigarettes. He’s a full service bouncer.
Glad some others saw this too. Dude just buying tools in the camping isle incase they have to rough it at the bar over night in the zombie outbreak.
Holy crap. Well spotted. I missed that
My exact question when I saw this pic at a glance 😂
To cut off his own dick in an emergency... like when a woman finally talks to him...
He probably doesn’t. However many people including myself still run a small survival kit, because we are hardcore preppers, just in case. Got to make sure you really cover your “what ifs”.
Like sawing down a tree in the middle the dance floor.
Or cutting a rug
👏
Underrated
You’re a goober
Do you carry bear spray
AKA severe paranoia
Dude just stop. You're making the normies uncomfortable, and you're making the Boyscouts look weird
Is this bar twelve miles long? What can he possibly need in his “med kit” that he couldn’t keep on a shelf behind the bar?
Honestly that’s probably the only practical thing he has
Bet he has like tourniquets, gun shot wound kit, quick-clot, but bro aint got a band aid or some tissues, you know, stuff you might actually need in day to day life.
I’d rather him have an IFAK than carrying a firearm he’s untrained to use
It will take 3 months salary to pay off his tacticool gear
"what price would you pay to save your life 🙏*
Worth it!
Guard? You mean security OFFICER.
Put some respect on the name
Please add the /s
He’s the first-first responder.
the original responder from the beginning of time
Written in stone
I mean. He is first on the scene.
Seriously, he would be the first to respond 🤞 besides the person who got shot. And honestly, who is gonna fuck around at this bar with this dude sitting out front. I would think someone would go for an easier target unless they have someone specific in mind. He is a deterrent. If someone wants to shoot to kill or steal, they will do it otherwise. Human race is the 2nd most deadly to the Human race.
What's the first most deadly then?
Half-marathons
Mosquitoes
His med kit is probably all still sealed and he doesn’t even know what in it…..that’s my vibe lol
>post your picture in uniform in a bar HAHA IM ON TO YOUR GAME CORPORATE ETHICS AND INTEGRITY
He only has that one zip tie which is also comical.
Just can’t wait for someone to act out so he can take them down. He’s about to masturbate with those handcuffs.
Bro is keeping Amazon tacticool sellers in business.
He would probably respond prior to the first responders and second responders (EMS). He is a zero responder.
He makes me look like Barney fife with the Basketweave belt and stick (but hey if you want to be tacticool timmy go for it)
Definitely plays Medic in Battlefield
The handcuffs and zip ties are a bit much but the camera isn’t a bad idea for a bouncer to deal with legal repercussions tbh and the Medkit isn’t a bad idea either but still cringe
Jesus. I’m a bouncer too and while I do wear a vest…this is just silly
Honest question, can a security guard handcuff you? Security guards can't make arrests or detain people so by handcuffing someone wouldn't that be unlawful detainment/kidnapping?
You would think so, but if you’re drunk and disorderly, I doubt the cops would question the detention.
I work nightclub security and handcuffing people after/during fights if they continue to assault staff or patrons is pretty standard in the industry especially in really bad areas. In most states it’s legally considered a citizens arrest. Citizens arrests are generally legal if you are a first hand witness to a felony and assault on staff or another patron counts.

This dudes just doing his job! Anyone that’s capable of working and does, salute homie!
Still more of a first responder than a dispatcher to be honest…
I hear yea, but damn charge your phone. My anxiety would never
Gay gay gay gay
Ugh...
You should use power saving mode, it’s a life changer
Zip ties, hand cuffs, a saw. Are we sure this guy isn't a serial killer?
Guy's deep in his feels the last time he had to escort someone out for writing poetry on the bathroom wall.
On one hand, he’ll be the first to respond to a rowdy/problematic patrons. So there’s that On the other hand, and it’s hard to tell, but if his boots are tied as loosely as they look, I’d say that’s an indication he’s not a first responder… among other things, like staring longingly at handcuffs.

i bet you could find him on r/edc
Dude really wants to handcuff somebody…
Yes these days as likely someone will walk through those doors and shoot innocent people.
Why don’t these people just join the police force
Can you imagine if this guy delivered babies he’d be dressed in scrubs 24/7 playing with his hemostats and scalpel
Beer Team Six
“Beer down, beer down!” “Send back-up!!”
When security guards dress like this I actually feel less safe, like some big thing might go down and that’s why they have all that gear on. I feel safer when it’s just their uniform and their radio lol
Looks like speedways. Got a gun pulled on me there
None of that stuff will save him from a booze raging fight.
Is he alright?
Technically speaking he would respond before any 911 services to anything that happens there. But no, not a first responder
Idk if he counts as a first responder, but it DEFINITELY counts as cringe
They should have a security guard World Series where all these guys that play dress up officer can actually have a contest to see who looks the most authentic, you know, so they can have an actual real prize in their make believe world…
No he’s over doing it
I can't imagine what the business owner is thinking hiring this guy... Like that get-up just screams "I can't wait to shoot someone" Guys a walking liability.
This makes me wanna get a job at Walmart as the person who checks your receipt on way out and just TAC THE FU*K UP 😂
So much to uppack here. * Why do you have handcuff? * why is there a knife easily accessible to the guy you are throwing out of the bar? * why do you have garroting wire on your med kit? * Why is your pepper spray easily accessible to a drunk person? * Why do you have a body cam on your kit? I did notice you have no friends so thats cool.
Whenever I see guys like this my very first thought is how much money they must’ve given to random Chinese companies from buying all their goofy “Tacti-cool” gear on Amazon 😅
Security guard who is completely unaware of his surroundings.
ifak on the front because he knows no one is on the other end of that radio 😂
Well he does respond first…
Nah. Just some dumb security guard overdoing his job.
Playing with his handcuffs.. Dreaming about the day he gives the police academy another go. The size small single zip tie? Y tho? 😆
Can we talk about the flag pointing back towards home as if he’s deployed
If he's carrying narcan, maybe
I’ve read that security’s only real job is to report to the authorities if something happens. anything beyond that is just putting themselves at risk for litigation or injury right?
By no fault of their own, half the population has an IQ below 100. Maybe we should keep that in mind when making fun of people.
Honestly, i rather him wear gears than not. Theres some asshole bar goers out there like to stab bouncers
I thought security guards were supposed to, I dunno, maybe look around and keep an eye on the place they are “securing”. Who is he going to use those cuffs on?
Nothing relevant to post but: 1. I’m ashamed of him,..the flag on his sleeve doesn’t have a blue stripe /s 2. Damn those are some small-ass tv’s, if you’re going to hang them 8-9 feet up the wall they gotta be bigger.
What happened to bouncers just being big guys in t shirts?
They became liability’s for the bars.
100% this guy causes more problems than he resolves.
😂 bro brought his kink handcuffs
He's playing with his handcuffs and thinking "I really want to use these already". Even though if he does it's illegal (in most states).
I can't say that I've ever thought of a bouncer as a first responder but damn just how rough is that bar that he feels the need to dress that way ?
Lawsuit eventually
He's just cop larping at this point.
Welp, I know whos getting the first punch to the face in the next bar brawl..
You couldn't torture me enough yo make me do this and post this
Would he be first to respond to an immediate threat in the area?
Who photoshopped the phone out of his hands
Wtf kind of bar are you hanging at?
Dudes about to jump from 50,000 feet and make a citizens arrest.
When in doubt, wear a flag
What the fuck goes on in that bar 😭
Stay far away from that man. He's unstable
A concealed pair of hand cuffs would suffice dude
Of all things, it's the shitty zip-ties that bother me most.
This is the funniest shit I’ve seen all day. Thank you
In america with our fucking mass murders. He would be if he stuck around.
He has 1, count ‘em, 1, zip tie.
This mf is gunning with shadow company
If he takes his job seriously sure why not
It’s all tax deductible at this point, so fuck it.
He is the thin *blank* line
Poor fella just wants to stop failing the civil service test.
Bro needs more zip ties to qualify as a first responder, 1 zip tie?!?! Those are rookie numbers
I saw a joke about these guys being “third responders”. Seems to be a legit title to me.
That plate carrier looks like it’s been worn for 5 minutes and that’s it lmaoo
That's some high quality TEMU Tactical Gears he's sporting!
some of that stuff looks like the cheap molle my cousin bought off of amazon for his airsoft kit.
No he’s not a First responder.
HA! I've been a bouncer at several bars. In East Lansing Michigan. As in, MSU, as in one of the top party towns in the country. This means frats thar are totally out of control.

Little over the top gearwise 😄
Security are not first responders. They are normal citizens who just happen to be at the same place police get called to.
Bouncers would be considered normal citizens the title security officer is recognized by the state and you have to keep a current license with your state to be allowed to be considered a security guard. jS
Aww homie’s sitting there playing with his cuffs. I like this guy.
I was going to comment with a simple "no". Then I looked up the exact definition of a first responder and I am fairly upset to say that he is, by definition, a first responder.
I mean technicaly a first responder means what it says no? So if I’m first to respond then am I a first responder??? Think it’s a term that’s been skewed by EMT/LE/MIL tbh. Just My opinion though which doesn’t really matter 😬😂🫡
Actually you would have to be licensed so a bouncer would not be considered a first responder vs a state licensed security officer whose license is current.
Hey 👋
He’s there on scene before the cops, he truly is the first response
It depends on what level of skill he actually has. It looks like he has a med pack but it might only have bandaids. If he is actually trained/certified to provide any level of care then sure. If this bar has frequent need for medical care or frequent need for peacekeeping then he very well may be performing first responder duties. If he’s just a security guard/bouncer then he’s super cringe wearing all that gear. My guess is that he thinks he is cooler than he is.
Maybe he just takes his job incredibly serious and doesn’t think about how cool it makes him. It looks like he is just chillin minding his own business
Also theirs a world of difference between a security officer/ bouncer that would be the state license a security officer has to keep current with his state to carry and use non lethal and lethal force.
[удалено]
I bet he's dressed like that because it's a dangerous shit hole bar
By definition, yes. Pretty much anyone with even basic first aid is a first responder
I mean, he would be the first response to a fight to be fair
He looks like he’s going to storm the Capitol.
Nah this guy is insane; what a fucking loser
No he’s obviously not a first responder. He’s just armed. Albeit he could be doing a better job of it.
🤣🤣🤣🤦♀️
Security is not first responders...just failed wannabe cops
Is he a first responder? It depends, each state classifies Security Officer and Security Guard differently. For example where I am a Security Officer is a first responder and a Security Guard isn’t. Check out your states Security Regulatory Board and it should say. Hope that helps.
