Reply to comment by Za_Lords_Guard in Deputies break up party near Sugarcreek with 300 guests, armed guards by Walmartwastelander

Pretty common for large events where I live. In fact, it’s a major side-employer for off duty cops. A deputy I know gets $100 per hour to do it; she said it’s usually the easiest 3-4 hour job ever.

That's an interesting fact. I am guessing these weren't off duty local cops in this case, or the responders wouldn't have felt the need to call in higher caliber rifles in case they had to open fire.

Though now that you mention it, private social events, clubs, and other events near me use off duty officers for front door duty and traffic coordination. This is a first for me with a B&B kegger.

If they were off-duty cops it wouldn't have been broken up.

These weren't off duty cops, they were tacticool bouncers. Who in their right mind wants to attend a house party where they hired obvious goons? What do they think that they need open carry rifles and body armor for? Whatever it is, it's not like I can't have a good time somewhere else, without such concerns. Basically everyone there is admitting that they are a dirtbag that causes problems.
