University security. They drive around looking for trouble, but when it gets dirty, the call the real cops.
The public safety aka rent a cop had to call the city cops because the party was too big.

A state certified and trained person who is essentially a private police officer. Used when 24hr police coverage can not be provided. Depending on the state, a "Rent-a-Cop" has arrest powers and carries a weapon. They can easily put you in as much trouble as a "real" cop. Most are Ex-Police/Milatary. Depending on the contract, the pay is actually better than local law enforcement.

1.) The ULTIMATE security guard;
2.) An agent of uniformed or assumed authority who is contracted out by others who shit on them as a means of cost-efficient, cheap-ass, under-qualified, ego-driven, completely useless substitute for actual law enforcement with the mundane task of performing substandard security services (w/ a smile) in a place of total unimportance without any hope of actual recognition for the half-assed job they are expected to fufill;
3.) Any security guard (contract or in-house) that has been retitled "Public Safety" for the sake of some ego-inflated management in order to complete some sense of delusional importance
Lemme see your badge, Rent-a-COP. Do you even have a gun, Rent-a-COP?

fat cops who are basically useless for nothing else but staking out smoking areas on school campuses and getting hard off of couples making out at the mall. easy to outrun and distracted by loud noises.
the "undercover" rent-a-cops at duxbury high school who sit at onion hill in thier van (not a cruiser) watching for kids saying under thier breath, "make my day."
