No. Not everyone. But 3% of the population doing it is enough to make most people want to collectivize their resources and pay for comprehensive security.

There would be security in Rothbard land, too. Law and security.

In fact, there is plenty of private security even with the government monopolization of police.

I can hire a security guard or team of security guards, an alarm system for my house, buy a shotgun, buy a rottweiler, build a gate, hire a bodyguard, buy padlocks, lo-jack, the club, mace or pepper spray, learn kung fu, and the list goes on...

Note that private firms will also employ a heavy mixture of the above as well to protect not only their stock, their warehouses, and their outlets, but their customers purchasing their goods as well.
