Atlanta mall security guard Darien Long got all sorts of viral heat for attempting to defend his store from the various ne’er do wells in the area. What’d he get for his hard work? A trip to the unemployment line.
Long during “happier” times, fighting off drug dealers
Long told Right This Minute that his last day of work will be March 31st.
He told Right This Minute that he expects, “Within two or three days, the drug dealers will start to come back in, once they know I’m not there.”
Long said that he thinks it’ll be tough for him to find another job given the popularity of the videos and the liabilities involved with his type of effective guardsmanship.
