Neil Patel is the owner of a Karco gas station in the city, and he told Fox 29 Philadelphia that he made the decision to protect not only himself, staff, and the business, but also his many customers.
The guards are fully-armed with high-capacity rifles and protective gear, as they patrol the lot to ward off any potential threats. The partnership is a private-public deal with the Pennsylvania State Agents.
ABC 7 spoke to one of these hired guns, having this to say:
We’re Pennsylvania State Agents and we’re not security. Basically, what we do is security details when the public calls upon us when the police can’t be there.
The first week, there was tension from the public seeing someone with an AR shotgun walking around. [Some people asked], ‘Why are you here? Are we in Beirut?’
According to Patel, in the roughly less than one month’s time he’s contracted these agents, crime has ceased at his business.
When the Fox station broadcast their report they also shared a live poll on Facebook asking residents if they believe this makes them feel safer. By the end of the segment 80% of those participating said that this move would make them feel safer.
The WinePress has previously reported on how the city of Philadelphia has been rapidly collapsing and looking quite destitute.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
As this country continues to collapse at freefall speeds, do not be surprised to see more and more of this happening with businesses that can afford to pay for armed guards, agents, repo-men, and bounty hunters.
[10] The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in. [11] There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone. [12] In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction. Isaiah 24:10-12
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Good.
Coming soon to Chicago, most of California especially Oakland, Portland Oregon, and New York City to name a few.
Armed guards and martial law will also be coming as well. Instead of cops chasing shoplifters, thieves, murderers, rapists, armed robbers, child abusers, and so on, it’ll be infantry, cavalry, military police, special forces, (maybe) combat medics, and so forth. Instead of patrol units, it’ll be humvees, armored cars, tanks, helicopters, and patrol boats.
That’s a way to deal with thieves.
