| Say someone tries to kill the person you are protecting and instead of throwing your body over them you chicken out, what do they do? fire you? or have a little chit chat with you? |

Say someone tries to kill the person you are protecting and instead of throwing your body over them you chicken out, what do they do? fire you? or have a little chit chat with you? Besides whatever they would do to you, you would be forever nationally known as a disgrace. I can't imagine a Secret Service agent doing that. The previous poster has supposedly seen it happen.

Twice you have seen someone attempt to assassinate the president and both times at least one secret service agent chickened out?  They are not just assigned to U.S . Presidential details for protection. Visiting Heads of State but I find this post suspect at the very least . |

The SS has more than 20 "principals" so it might have been those details. |

Neither attempt was on the President of the United States I took "presidental detail" to mean "guarding the president." Either way, let's hear it. |

I think that guy who stood between Hinkley and Reagan has more balls than everyone here combined. From Wikipedia: "Special Agent Tim McCarthy stepped in front of President Ronald Reagan during the assassination attempt of March 30, 1981 and took a bullet to the abdomen, but made a full recovery." More balls than most.

I think that guy who stood between Hinkley and Reagan has more balls than everyone here combined. Tim McCarthy FTMFW. He lived across the street from me when it went down. 
That's Tim on the right, while Jerry Parr was putting President Reagan into the limo. He faced toward the threat, stood his ground and spread his arms, sucking up a .22LR Devastator round from Hinckley in the process. |

Fuck that! In my eyes no man is worth me taking a bullet for. I'd be the first one to step aside. Not saying I wouldn't shoot back, but I wouldn't intentionally get in front of someone else's target either. I would if it was my wife, family or really close friends. Sully. |

Used to be: "Well Agent Whazzit, you let the shooter get through. We have decided to re-assign you to the basement of the Treasury Building cataloging counterfit currency. Enjoy your new assignment." Now it's likely to be: "Good job Agent Whazzit, you 'inadvertantly' let the shooter get to BHO. The Treasury Department will be holding a ceremony to award you the Medal of Freedom....if we can get the Vice President out from under her bed long enough."

Sorry to hear that you haven't had the pleasure of meeting a man or woman who would be worth it. I have met plenty and consider having met them an honor and a priviledge. |
