(22,133 posts)stop at? What disgusting tricks will they pull next? I suspect when Biden wins this Nov. 2020 elections, Prinz will need to start immediately laying off their thugs before long, as their business model will suck in the next several months and they will be examined for illegal orders from rump etc.

Also worth noting, the Federal Protective Service relies extensively on the use of private contractors, so these are not government employees.
In 2019 they had 13,000 private security contractors and only 1,109 FTE
See footnotes on page 29:

Not at all surprised these are part of Interior Minister Barrs army .

(33,643 posts)that they were contractors i.e. mercenaries or paramilitary.
It will be totally unsurprising if they're Prince's guys.

(3,268 posts)Well the thing many people remember from Iraq was the four burned corpses of contractors hung from that bridge, but the important thing to remember the reason they wound up there were some of their co-workers panicked and mowed down nearly 20 innocent Iraqis nearby. Do NOT scare these guys...
