What could *possibly* go wrong? I mean think about it, how often have you been in a rideshare or a taxi and thought the missing customer service element was the sure and certain knowledge that your driver was armed?

That name is trying so hard to be cool that it projects real insecurity vibes. Cool people don’t need you to know how cool they are. STABLE people don’t need you to know how cool they are.

“[…] I was able to see three different services, Armed Executive Protection, Unarmed Executive Protection, and School Executive Protection. School-based alternatives are being marketed as a way to send children to school more safely.”
What idiot parent would bring their kid in the car with a stranger that knowingly had a loaded firearm? The article also says that all their drivers will come from a military or service background.

The drivers are going to get robbed and probably killed. “I have a gun come sit behind me while I drive”

This doesn’t make sense.
If I was doing urber I would carry my glock with me but my passages wouldn’t know. I’m not their bodyguard, they are who I’m worried about.

Lets make crime as easy as possible?
Get away car and a gun provided by an independent contractor, the business loses what?
