    Private military companies are one of the world's biggest employers
    Here are a few companies that like to promote ''security'' around the world
    Don't be surprised if some of the thugs being employed by the Vic police are really employed by one of the following companies

    I don't think many Vic police would enjoy shooting rubber bullets into fellow Victorians
    that's where rent-a-cop comes into it
