I’m a security guard. I would not have attempted to detain a drunk guy for pissing on a dumpster. Ain’t nobody got time for that. But I would shoot someone that points a weapon at me or anyone else. This kind of scenario is one of my worst nightmares. I don’t envy the guard who has to live with the weight of killing a guy….especially when it could have been prevented.
