Step 1, get hired by security company...

I was going to say, no fucking way does this work like they hope it will.

Numbers are against them. Far, far against them.

I think they forget that people below them value their own lives. I don't know any security guards who are willing to lay down their own lives for some CEO for moderate pay. If it's that or continuing to live? Idk, it's a feel good measure in my book.

The security these people hire aren't the same security you are thinking of.

These are PMCs. PMCs make quite a bit more cash, and have military training to ignore some of that self-preservation.

That being said - it's still a game of numbers.
