unless of course the people in a given area pay for the service of protection from the mob. Say a private security company who would be equipped with whatever the citizens felt was necessary. They could keep the mob from ever coming in the first place.

What exactly differentiates that private security company from a mob? That is the distinction you fail to adress.

Good point, obviously voluntary payments would do this. yet if you stopped paying there is always the chance of them turning their guns on you.
In many ways there is no difference. However I was envisioning a more communal group, like the volunteer firefighters, rather than a private firm. communal defense has more safegaurds against run away power plays
