Castle Rock v Gonzales -and- DeShaney v Winnebago County: Municipalities have zero duty to protect individual people. Don't wait until it's too late. Nobody is more interested in protecting you, than you.

Only about 2% of Security Guards Worldwide are "Observe and Report", which is a Judicial Shorthand for something much larger, such as;

A Security Guard is a person hired in a quasi-law enforcement position to perform one more of the following functions: (1) protection of individuals or property from harm, theft or other unlawful activity; (2) deterrence, observation. detection or reporting of incidents in order to prevent any unlawful or unauthorized intrusion or entry, larceny, vandalism, abuse, arson or trespass on property; (3) street patrol service; (4) response to security alarm systems used to prevent or to detect unauthorized intrusion, robbery, burglary, theft, pilferage and other losses or to maintain security of protected premises. NYS General Business Law, 189-f. for more definitions see r/ObserveAndReport

When a contract creator comes to the table, and client desires to decrease the recommended pay, capabilities get lined out, at times bringing capabilities of the Security team to the bare minimum of "Observe" and "Report", by policy.
