    “Thinking tactically”… You’re literally some anonymous person on the internet. I guarantee you know dick all about how the secret service operate in these circumstances.

    As for the “shoot to kill” comment, the secret service hasn’t killed anyone in quite a while, yet they have shot a few. The evidence doesn’t corroborate your stance.

      So how do you explain the Secret Service shooting people without killing them?

      Is it:

      (a) They lack the firing skill to hit center mass

      or

      (b) Their methods do not correspond perfectly with the legal guidelines given in a concealed carry course?

        Because even when hitting centre mass, a bullet isn’t a guaranteed way to kill someone. Look at combat during the recent Iraq war, way more people got injured than killed due to bullets. Do you think they were aiming to just wound the people shooting at them?

        So, in answer to your question that appears to be designed to embarass me, neither.
