    Shooting at someone for trying to break into an unoccupied car is an extreme response. Pointing a weapon at them should have been more than enough

      There are real threats at that level though. Disabling the SUV could easily be the prelude to an attack because it’s the primary mode of escape. If that’s not it then you’re also responsible for protecting the automatic rifles and classified information in the vehicle. The vehicle itself is also highly classified to prevent people from knowing how to breach it’s armor.

      Presumably they went through the use of force continuum and got to warning shot because the guy ain’t dead and the Secret Service protection agents train at an elite level.

        Common sense says you don’t need to shoot at people trying to break into a car.

        No vehicle stuffed with automatic weapons and classified information should be parked in a public area and left unattended. You’d have to be dumber than a fucking rock to do it because leaving full auto weapons and / or classified information unsecured are criminal violations under Federal Law!

          Well it seems like it wasn’t left unattended at all.
