Why Are Armed “International Security” Personnel Now Arresting American Citizens?

By Bernie Suarez

Very recently I came across a scenario in the streets of Hollywood, California. The big scene seemed a bit striking to the average person walking by as it was the middle of the day in a crowded busy Hollywood street. A closer look caused me to be even more intrigued – there was a gentleman being arrested. He was in handcuffs and surrounded by three or four armed officers. Or were they really officers?

A closer look surprised me even more. The “officers” were not police. They were not Sheriff’s department or California Highway Patrol (CHP). They all wore a logo on their sleeves and a logo on an otherwise unmarked car that read “Andrews International Security Services” nothing else. They otherwise had all black uniforms and all were armed like police officers, looking scary and aggressive.

After getting a photograph of their logo (which earned me a dirty look from them) and investigating them with the LAPD, I was told by an LAPD officer that this private security company is part of a program called “Business Improvement District” (BID). The officer explained that they’ve been putting these security entities on the streets for at least a few years to his knowledge. Ultimately, the officer agreed with me that this was a very serious situation saying it was a “very interesting” concept in light of the Constitutionality and legality of it.

These “Business Improvement Districts” go by many other names which all interestingly happen to have three letter representations (like government agencies making them sound official) including the Business Improvement Area (BIA), the Business Revitalization Zone (BRZ), Community Improvement District (CID), Special Services Area (SSA), and the Special Improvement District (SID). All of these groups are similar types of BIDs operating nationwide.

Upon further research on this matter I discovered that this is a business model that first began in 1970 in Toronto where the first Business Improvement District (BID) was created in the “Bloor West Village.” Here in the U.S. the first BID appeared New Orleans in 1974 touting themselves as the “Downtown Development District.”

How are BIDs formed? According to Wikipedia:

A business improvement district (BID) is a defined area within which businesses pay an additional tax (or levy) in order to fund projects within the district’s boundaries. The BID is often funded primarily through the levy but can also draw on other public and private funding streams… BIDs provide services, such as cleaning streets, providing security, making capital improvements, construction of pedestrian and streetscape enhancements, and marketing the area.

Apparently the richest business owners in the neighborhood can collude together to form a private group which donates money to provide whatever “services” they agree is to their best interest. Funding can come from both public or private entities and local government needs to determine that the majority of businesses want the BID before they enact legislation to create the BID. Local government does not consult with the community but instead with the business owners who are able to influence legislation to ensure the establishment of the BID. In fact, most people don’t know that BIDs have become a powerful lobby group pushing municipalities for certain services that they then select private companies to cash in on when the job is contracted to them. In other words, business owners have gotten together and formed yet another product that they are selling to the municipalities. That’s right, your freedom to walk down the streets is being sold to private entities.

What am I talking about? Or, so what, you might say, what’s the big deal?

As the document source states above, BIDs are providing “services” such as street cleaning, making capital improvements, construction of pedestrian and streetscape enhancements, and marketing capital improvements. In addition to these services of “improvements,” “enhancements” that serve corporate interest, they are also providing “security” because security is part of the “improvement”.

As I recently found out, this includes “International” private armed security companies who are being given the power to arrest people in the streets. When the state municipalities begin to sell the “service” of policing the people, funded by programs that were not approved by the people but instead by a small group of business owners, we are walking down a slippery road to corporate tyranny.

With the number of BIDs in American now increased from a small handful in the 1970s-80s we now have over 1000-1200 BIDs in the United States alone operating in cities throughout the United States without the approval of the people. The corporations are using this program to arm themselves against the people. This represents a large civilian army whose numbers are growing with no end in sight; this should concern all Americans who care about freedom, liberty and the Constitution. These private (PRO-Corporation) illegal “security” personnel are posing as officers and police and are spreading in the United States, and that is a direct threat to the people who have no say in who these people are and why they are roaming around in our streets.

We are now approaching a time when these private security gangs or pseudo-police are looking to intimidate and bully Americans (which is exactly what I witnessed on the streets of Hollywood) who are walking the streets enforcing their own private set of rules, independent of the basic laws of the local government. Their private rules are based on whether you the pedestrian are interfering with the “improvement” or the “enhancement” or even the “marketing” of the general area where the private business cabal who formed the Business Improvement District (BID) to begin with, is conducting their business.

This intriguing development is very much a part of the globalist restructuring of our world in the name of private profit and corporate despotism. This is another way in which private corporations are working hand in hand with local government to enslave the people and remove, arrest, charge and perhaps even beat or kill anyone who gets in the way of private profit.

Let’s not be fooled by back stage formations of these private business coalitions that are forming in our own towns while we work every day and do our own thing. They are catching on with these models and using them to take away your freedom, while they profit even more. If you see or learn of one of these organizations in your local community confront it. Find out everything you can about them and try to have a voice in what they are doing. Tell others about these programs and help inform voters from the perspective of the U.S. Constitution so that people can have a voice in this issue. Let your local government know that armed civilians enforcing security in the name of corporate profit is not what America is about and does not serve the interest of Americans. Big business owners are not America, they do not represent the interest of the we-the-people and their private security forces need to be dismantled immediately.

Sadly, many people will see these corporate takeovers of our local municipal towns and streets as innocent, maybe even a good idea, and they won’t think twice about the dangers this represents. To those people, I will remind them of the words outlined in our Declaration of Independence which states:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,

Let this be a reminder that we truly are all created equal, and it is the greed and arrogance that is often related to the pursuit of riches, power and control, that give men the delusion that he is greater than another just because he has more money and riches. This is all part of the superiority complex psychosis known as eugenics, which is ultimately driving the effort to create a one world government. Those that suffer from this mental disease truly believe they are superior to the average person, and this psychosis is at the heart of this entire issue. Without this eugenic superiority mentality we would not be seeing what we are seeing in the streets of America. The eugenicists who are running many of the successful businesses today really believe it is up to them to control society and impose their personal wishes on the general public. Call it what you will, this has to stop and we must expose these programs.

The officer I spoke with never did tell me why or how the private security company known as Andrews International Security Services is granted the authority to arrest Americans, and I’m still investigating to see if they have been officially granted such authority, but either way this is a red flag for all Americans to start sounding the alarm. As I mentioned before, the officer I spoke with seemed to agree that this was at the very least an issue of interest and concern, especially for anyone who truly understands the Constitution. I believe we will hear more of this issue as we continue to march toward global tyranny and we continue to witness the presence of these mysterious “International” and private security corporations, donning the role of police and attempting to police a sovereign nation full of millions of Veterans and active and retired Officers who themselves swore an oath to defend the Constitution.

These are signs of the times and I urge readers to take a stand against tyranny and the corporate-government funded new world order. If you don’t take a stand now, you may not have a chance to take a stand tomorrow, for by then it will be too late.

Agreed.... Same goes for private prisons and also other stuff  which doesn't exactly go along with the concept of making money no matter what. Some  things  should just stay public.JMHO.

The author, Bernie Suarez, of the hit piece is insincere, ignorant and an idiot.

 

All security companies in California are highly regulated by BSIS, Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (www.bsis.ca.gov).  

 

Security Companies possess NO MORE LEGAL AUTHORITY TO ARREST a person than any other citizen.

 

California citizens can arrest any person they believe have committed a crime; it is called a Citizens Arrest.

 

California citizens who are property owners, business owners or managers of a business can direct an employee or associate to act on his behalf as his agent to conduct a citizens arrest. (Think bouncer)

 

The word 'Arrest' is a legal term that does not necessarily require the use of restraints ie handcuffs.  Likewise, placing handcuffs on another does not necessarily mean that person is under arrest but can be used for detention and/or personal safety.

 

Mr. Bernie Suarez reveals his ignorance and bias by omitting the above.

@ RSTEFAN with regard to your thread title and question:  Where in the article did Bernie Suarez state "International Security" personnel arrested American citizens?

The title is a little misleading and sensational, but the article states:

Nice catch george.

These people that write this garbage continue in their effort to take the citizens eye off the real problems in this country.

I personally think they work for the other side and do it intentionally

So they wore black uniforms

So they were armed

hahahahaha

So THAT makes them look SCARY hahahaha

 

Lord save us all from the pusiefacation of the men in this country.

 

scary  yeah  right. 

What's usual is a security company, or rent a pig outfit, to be detaining a citizen on public, not private, property.

 

If I see someone (anyone) committing a crime as a free citizen in this country I can place that man under citizens  arrest Flat . ANYWHERE

on the white house lawn if need be

Private security detaining citizens on public property is a real problem. It's apart of the larger problem: fascism.

Scary to me and you, no.

Scary to the average uninformed citizen, probably.

The black uniforms are worn for intimidation.

Well the average uninformed citizen needs to take his head out of his a$$ and man up.

Dont get me wrong just like you I hate any form of fascism I just dont think this is the case.

They dont explain why the man was detained for or what he had done.  Without hearing the whole story its just to easy to come to a wrong conclusion.

Been there and have done that.

 I do know that in my youth as a bouncer in detroit clubs sometimes you had to breakup the combatants

outside of the bar and hold them till police arrive and occasionally it would be off the property .  

[George Hayduke]

What's usual is a security company, or rent a pig outfit, detaining a citizen on public, not private, property.

 FD - learn up on the 'elements of a crime' - there is no free zone - if a crime has been committed an arrest can be made.

 

Also, learn up on the California classifications of crime:

• Infraction = citation (citations are an arrest with a promise to appear before the court without the offender taken into custody)
• Misdemeanor = citation or taken into custody.
• Felony = taken into custody.

All California citizens 18yrs and older can make a citizens arrest regardless if the offense committed is a Misdemeanor or Felony.

 

All California security companies must adhere to uniform restrictions so as not to confuse the public.  

• Business and Professions Code Section 7583.38 
• A city, county, or city and county may regulate the uniforms and insignias worn by uniformed employees of a private patrol operator and vehicles used by a private patrol operator to make the uniforms and vehicles clearly distinguishable from the uniforms worn by, and the vehicles used by, local regular law enforcement officers. 

Clearly, you and Suarez are equally uninformed and/or biased.  Rent a pig?  Really?

it's going to boil down to, if it's not your local sheriff/deputy, or local/state militia....................then shoot 'em.

Good Point Umberto... I meant to comment on that article about private prisons the other day... it's getting pretty bad...  the corps are making money from that enterprise in every way imaginable... guess this would help expand that biz even more.

 

I don't like this idea at all... sounds more like private security contractors in Iraq.. than good ol' security guards in the US.

Dont know why you would be so down on security contractors maggie.

Being a woman and please im not being sexsist but there are certain aspects of being male that most (not all) but most women dont get.

If you are good at plumbing then you become a plumber.

If you are good at wrenching on cars you become a mechanic.

If you are a born warrior who has courage and knows the equipment and ways of modern day warriors .

Then by all means become a contractor.

Have gun will travel.

Mercenaries have been around as long as whoring and is a honorable profession.

Doesnt matter what country your in.

If you are legally there and being paid to protect something 

Then the guy that  shooting at you is the bad guy.

Not the other way around

[George Hayduke]

Spot on, Dog.  There are many, or at least have been in the past, security contractors on DV.  Most are heavily invested because we were making bank back in the day but not so much now.  The risk is just too great for $300/16hr day and no SOFA and US military support.  That's why the security details are now populated with Eastern Europeans, Angolans, etc. All brave men working to provide safety and security for the client as well as provide a better life for their own family.

 

If one has a skill set that takes one into the danger zone so be it, only a coward would stay behind and work at a Subway...

 

For those who feel intimidated by our look - good, it means its working.  No need to say thanks just stay out of our bloody way so we can get to the challenging task before us.

Who spit in you Wheaties? Sheesh Dog.

 

Last I checked we are NOT living in Iraq...

 

Personally I feel no need nor desire to have corporate paid, jack booted thugs guarding our streets for our security.

 

That is what federal, state and city law enforcement are for... and doing a plenty (insert description here) job of it.

 

Private security guards in the US... their only interest should be in guarding their corporate employers property.

 

 

PS. If someone wants to be a paid mercenary... they can go somewhere else.

I added the part where you said "insert description here"  Mag

 

Now If I was rich would I want to depend on the police ahhh thats a big nope I wouldnt.

They only show up after your dead and your things are stolen. 

There`s nothing wrong in hiring a security team if you are that well off thats all im saying.

and If I was the one paying them I would certainly want them checking out anyone who may look like he was trying to gain entry

upon that property. Even if he happened to be off the said property.  

Nope nobody spit in my wheaties Kiddo didnt mean to come off harsh.sounding at all.

I just respect the men who have the fortitude and the knowledge to use their god given talents.

Weather that be a welder or a plumber or a hired gun

Sorry Dog I was in a hurry and was smiling about something else.

 

I read the OP's article again and if true... This is giving jurisdiction to a whole lot more than a business owners property.

 

I still do NOT like the sound of it... and it could very likely be true by the way things have been going.

 

There could be a lot of unintended consequences if you think about it... what if some corp hotdog didn't like your son?

 

Are you Ok with private contractors hired by corporations arresting people on the street... Really???

I dunno mag Im thinking detaining or holding someone till police arrives is not exactly making a arrest.

As far as my sons go I have raised them in such a way that they can handle any situation that some corp hotdog may place them in.

I would go as far to say that I would most likely have to step in and save said corp hotdog a$$ 

[Maggie123]

Laughing so hard right now I can hardly type.... I dunno why I said "corp hotdog"
