Hi,
I am a security guard in FL who works a few nights a week at a 'gated' (I say 'gated' because a flimsy piece of plastic is hardly a gate) community that only has a guard 8 hours a night. My question is can I legally bar someone from entering this community which has named roads and has another exit on one of the side streets which has a chain link gate that is chained and padlocked from the inside (meaning this community technically has a throughway for traffic even though it is blocked) when someone can just easily wait for the shift to end and the front 'gate' is locked into the open position?
