wouldn’t that eliminate the protection from lawsuits since they are not government agents, but private employees?

As well, can they be funded by taxpayer dollars as private entities?

Sic the IRS on them as inherently conservative organizations. They know how to handle 501c3 terrorists!

If they are claiming private corporate status to shield themselves from open records don’t they also give up considerable power?

What other private corporation can conduct no knock raids on private citizens?

What other private corporation can equip their employees with unlicensed (IAW Federal gun control laws) fully automatic weapons?

What other private corporation can freely violate state gun control laws (assault weapons, large capacity magazines, etc) with impunity?

What other corporation get pro bono use of state and county legal facilities and personnel?

And the list goes on and on.

I would love to see some legal group take these SWAT corporations to court with the idea of CONFIRMING their status as a private corporation. Then, immediately sue the counties they are operating in for failing to equally enforce various Federal and state gun laws.

Exactly. No Sovereign Immunity for NGOs and non-profit corps.
