Favoritism determining which security guards carry guns in Nevada, critics say

In Nevada, security guards aiming to become armed are facing barriers due to an unofficial policy set by the state Private Investigators Licensing Board, which critics argue is rooted in favoritism rather than safety. Instructors and students are pushing for changes, claiming the board’s approach undermines their professional development. This situation highlights a broader issue about regulatory transparency and fairness in licensing practices, raising questions about how these policies impact public safety and the rights of security professionals.
