    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.
