The reason I say “trained/certified”:

And if I’m not mistaken, he also might be the guy that was handing out badges and IDs to any former member of the Special Operations units. All you had to do was pay some money or be a “somebody” and you got your stuff. And I think it all came out when one of the badge holders shot somebody in a bar, tried to show his stuff. And when they investigated it further, discovered that they guy had never been through any training.
The rich folks like the Koch Bros and others get their bodyguards badges so they can travel with them, anywhere they go. Especially if they have to go to California, NY, NJ, Mass. And there’s even more to it than that, but a totally different topic.
But, I wouldn’t want to see him or his department get rolled up into something bad.
If I had the ability and time, I’d get my certification back and volunteer as much time as I could to the man. Nothing like some ‘out of the box thinking’ to solve a problem.
Good info and god points. Thanks.
