What power does Disney security actually have??

[JESW]

After reading some posts about guests purposely ramming others with their strollers so they can get by, or others pushing/shoving in a line, I have wondered what Disney security can actually do in these situations.

For example...if I am walking down Main Street and the guest behind me rams me with their stroller on purpose (and says so) and I get hurt - what will they do to that guest? Throw them out of the park? Talk with them? What???

Or if I am in line for ride and someone in the back yells to push ahead and the crowd does and one of my children gets hurt - what can they do to that person who started it??

We just came back from a wonderful week and thankfully, other than my own children ( ) did not see any guest behaving innapropriately. I am just curious as to what happens to the troublemakers.

And what exactly are the bag checkers looking for? Obviously they don't care if you are bringing in food or (non-alchoholic) drinks as I've seen both get by. What CAN'T you bring in?? And if you do bring that object in - what can they do about it?

I am not insulting the Disney security, I am just wondering what their role and power is...

I am assuming they can kick you out of the park and I think they are looking for guns, knives, mysterious white powder, bombs, etc. Anything that could be threatening or dangerous to other visitors. If they do find that, I'm sure they will refuse admission to the park.

I highly doubt they would throw somebody out of the park for hitting somebody with their stroller.

What about throwing out of a resort for using an old mug?

I suppose if someone was delibertly racing down Main Street playing a game of *hit the people* security might remove them from the park. But an accident, no.

at Six Flags a few years ago, I saw security confront a teenager who spit on a ride attendant. the ride was one that goes up into the air. the kid leaned over the side and spit, probably meaning to hit the sidewalk but...

the young man was escorted out of the park.

on the bqack of your ticket, you ar etold that you are there as a guest of Disney. you can be removed if you violate the rules. though I doubt security would do that for minor infractions, you'd have to be really out of control before they'd remove you from th ppremises.
