Disney HRT/SWAT team?

Actually they call Orange Sheriff's Office.


This is correct. OCSO.

Disney has no armed employees. Disney employees, even security, do not put their hands on guests.

Disney does contract with local law enforcement agencies, and federal agencies. They do have armed officers in the parks, security, etc, but they do not collect a Disney paycheck. They are not Disney employees. Disney pays the city, the city pays the officers and agents walking around, some undercover.

Disney has its own fire stations on property. But they are not Disney firefighters, they are Orange County firefighters, and their station is simply on property.
 
Disney has several layers of security, ranging from the guest experience employees up to having a functioning tactical team. Much like any theme park, every employee gets a basic level of training on what to do with certain emergency situations and when it's time to let management or emergency services handle the problem. Of course, most of their real security is kept low-profile because the illusion of Disney has to be maintained. Rest assured that if something significant kicked off, they have protocols and people for it.

This whole family scuffle wasn't a significant security issue and the security teams were content to let it fizzle out unless it spilled over to injure other guests and became a serious calamity. Think of the PR nightmare that would unfold after edited video of Disney security descended on the male and tuned his ass up for disrupting the vibe at the "Happiest Place on Earth". That and you can bet your ass that the family would sue Disney for laying a hand on the guy (despite him being an asshole) because that's just how folks are these days.
