The people who pay got vigilante private security don't do it to avoid police planting evidence in them.

They do it to have someome to attack the others, someone under their control. They have zero incentive to prevent private security from planting evidence on others.

Gangs in fact did not ended up to be fair non corrupt equivalent of police either.

I'm much less concerned with them planting evidence on me than I am with them shooting a friend or family member who is experiencing a mental health crisis.

Or shooting my dog just because it's there.

That is the same category. People who will call private security in your friend or family don't mind violence that much.

And in case you are the one calling, you don't need private security as much as private mental health professional. Because that knowledge and exlerience of mental health crisis comes with being mental health professional - not with security.

If private security shoots someone having a mental health crisis, they have far fewer legal protections to help them avoid consequences. This is precisely the point I have been making.
