And, many of them are off-duty police officers earning extra cash, thus they forget that they are limited in what they can do in their capaicity as a "Security Officer" versus their actual Police duties"...But, I'm sure if they "flash" tin, any abuse will be overlooked by the actual city police officers...

Cops are never "off-duty". They have full police powers even when they are not "on-duty". The only difference is they aren't getting paid and don't have a radio for backup while off-duty.
Q 9. Do active law enforcement officers have to comply with
the requirements of SORA?
Active law enforcement officers working in an off-duty security
capacity for a Licensed Security Agency must obtain a Security
Officer Certification. They must provide their SBI number in their
application, but do not have to submit fingerprints, or attend the
security officer training course. Instructors shall verify the officer’s
identity and active duty status. Once this has been confirmed, the
instructor will upload “pass” for the officer’s test results and the
officers digital photo. The instructor will also generate an email to
the Private Detective Unit (PDU) including the police officers name,
SBI number and applicant ID Number.
