Pennsylvania Casinos

[hemi444]

Does any one know how the security is going to be worked out for the casinos in PA. I have heard since we are a commonwealth they will be having armed peronnel on the outside and unarmed on the inside. With jersey being a state and PA being a Commonwealth does each state set a standard or is it a natioanal standard

Casinos are a private operation, so its up to the client (casino) how they'll be doing security. Some casinos use Tribal Protectors / Tribal Police as armed security / cash escorts, and then use warm body "customer service" security in the facility to "maintain order."

There is no national or state standard for security in a casino, they are treated like any other corporation.
