It’s no secret that New York City is being ravaged by violent crime. Now, a former bodyguard is looking to profit off it by launching a ridesharing app with armed drivers.
The company, Black Wolf, is currently operating in metro Atlanta area, and its founder, Kerry King Brown, says he wants to bring it to the Big Apple.
“Who are mostly on the news getting robbed?… The average person,” Brown told Atlanta News First. “What I’m creating is a necessary evil. It’s a necessity.”
In just a week after launching in the Atlanta area, the company’s app was downloaded more than 80,000 times.
“Every Black Wolf App vehicle comes equipped with GPS Tracking and Live-streaming technology that allows our riders to share with their loved ones,” the company says on its Facebook page.
For an additional base fee, riders can request to specifically be driven by an armed individual.
Black Wolf says all of its drivers undergo background checks and are required to take firearms training classes, as well as learn deescelation methods.

Yeah, a cabby with a gun. What could possibly go wrong?
Because the Democrats let the criminals run amock and cops can’t do their jobs. Everyone should be self-policing.
Maybe in Atlanta but NEVER in New York. Our first female Governor, the privileged white Karen Kathy Hochul, will never allow white law abiding citizens to carry guns. In New York City only the minority criminals are allowed to own and carry guns. Remember, in Kathy’s pea brain, all white males are maga domestic terrorist supremacists.
i think i speak for many as ADAMS has been a gigantic disappointment , his policies are just as bad as deblasio’s and his corruption might be even worse, which is hard to believe.
To Nit Getting Onvolved: In your pea brain, you think Jews get the same pass that other white people get.
What’s the market for this. I’m not paying extra for a cabby with a gun. If I need private security, they have that already.
Will be out of business in six months
