In response to "that is 100% inaccurate. Film sets, street festivals, etc etc all hire off-duty police for events. Not sure if it works for individuals, but police " by Andie

off duty police offices are private security. I get what they want. They want cops. But you can’t just request cops.

- Yeah. Someone with the authority to do something once lines are crossed. Private security takes out a cameraman that’s just more photos. Cop does it - mafic May 17, 08:05 1
  - Wouldn't police officially step in at a certain point? The Beatles had police escorts. - loosilu May 17, 08:11
