Also, in reply to your question: "Surely you don't prefer being coerced to not being coerced, do you?" This is a false dichotomy. I'd be under coercion in both cases, either by the democratically elected politicians who control the state police or by private security services (essentially someones henchmen by the sounds of it lol) controlled by people over whom i have 0 control.

Privatize the Police!
How would that be the case? Unless you're trespassing on someone's property, what interaction would you have with private security?

Well the police do a lot more than just protect private property. I would be at the mercy of everyone who could pay for a bigger private security for than me

That's right. They also extort people for victimless, so-called crimes. They violate and damage persons and property, many times without cause or justification.
How would you be at the mercy of a private security company hired to protect the property and persons of those they're under contract with? I think you're misconstruing what private security means.
