Yes, a part of his job is dealing with tourists, but he also has a right to his personal space and freedom to express himself while respecting his duty. Crowding around him w/o consent is intrusive, not to mention inconsiderate if he needed to react to a safety threat.

      @@carminemurray6624 As someone who worked with the general public, I agree. Much of the general public can't be trusted. Not so much because all or most are creeps or w/e, but moreso carelessness and a lack of awareness. Like I just watched a couple vids where some people will touch a guard's horse or reins, when there's a clear sign nearby warning that the horse may get violent if disturbed. I don't think they were trying to provoke or abuse the horse, just that there's some carelessness and lack of situational awareness.

    Treat the poor guard as if he’s some kind of object to be used for their pics. At least give him more space and consideration that he’s an on-duty guard! I’m sure if there’s an emergency, they’d likely rely on him to do something. I also don't care who you are, where you're from, what language you speak, etc. And while there are different social etiquette and traditions regarding touching others, personal space and personal freedom of expression are universal concepts, especially around strangers.

      @@folkme3042 I agree the British Royal guards that I've seen on YT do show a lot of self-control and patience. It must be very difficult, even if they are used to it, to keep calm in certain situations, such as people standing too close. However, in the video, I disagree that public as whole is respectful. Granted, they don't try to provoke or abuse him, and I hear some of the public defending the guards or calling out the bad tourists' stupid behavior. But I think most of them crowd around him too close and are being inconsiderate that he's on-duty guard. I know many want they want to snap a quick pic or 2, and it may be hard to get him in the picture. But that just shows those who are thinking of their pics in the moment, not of how the guard may feel or his duties. Granted, dealing with tourists come along with his duties, but that doesn't mean tourists can't be more considerate and fair to others. For me, taking pictures of the guards individually is a bit creepy, as they can't consent (regardless of legal, more moral ground) and are being treated as if they're objects for a pic by just taking a pic w/o consent. I'd say events are different, such as parades, because there's a reasonable expectation of it being filmed due to it being a special event.
