Spotting him was simple. Protecting him... not so much.I'd suggest that women would be much better at spotting creepy men.

This doesn't confirm one way or the other, you're speculating, I'd speculate that ssa's at that level are likely highly skilled hand to hand combat fighters, ok not world champ standard.If you're not training MMA every day, you're getting beat up by an MMA fighter. Sean Strickland recently beat up a Navy SEAL without getting out of first gear. I also train with a former US Marine. I'm a 5'6", 70kg IT worker, and can turn the bloke into a pretzel with ease lol
I have no doubt that SSAs are trained in hand-to-hand combat, but you have to consider that MMA fighters and BJJ guys are training every day, multiple times a day. Secret Service are to busy worrying about logistics, firearms, and 100 other things. to be genuinely skilled at fighting. They're far better than the average person, but not better than someone skilled in that area.
There's heaps of them who get to the president quickly - the risk is firearms and explosives and not hand to hand combat.Im saying how could the best bodyguards not be men? And people are making the utterly ridiculous argument that actually strength speed and size ISN'T that important for a bodyguard who more often than not has to physically restrain people with their hands, not guns. I guess it makes them feel better about themselves ?
Obviously not saying a women is literally incapable of being a bodyguard, but we're talking about supposedly the best of the best.

You're just being ridiculous -observation skills, understanding of behaviour, teamwork and judgement would all trump strength for the role.They must be great at handling all types of threats, which is why you'd pick men if you wanted the best possible candidates and didn't care about gender quotas.
Shamefully the secret service now do care about filling gender quotas.

Do you?Do you really understand the job?
No one said it's the only desirable trait, but thanks for pointing that out.
So if women and men are completely equal in all the other traits, but men are bigger faster and stronger, wouldn't that make them the better elite bodyguards for a president?
A yes or no will suffice
You have not been commenting on a hypothetical derpBecause it's a hypothetical derp.
But how many interview processes have you been involved in where all other traits of the applicants have been "completely equal"?
As a hypothetical its not particularly useful.
Nick Daicos was too young at that stage ?I think Pies should have traded Pendlebury years ago for someone who was equal at everything else but stronger and faster. I don't know why we didn't.
So, when did you stop beating your wife?
You're just being ridiculous -observation skills, understanding of behaviour, teamwork and judgement would all trump strength for the role.
Do you?
What do you actually think the job requirements for a SS agent in charge of protection needs to be, and what experience/knowledge do you possess in this area that renders your opinion on this compelling or trustworthy?
Those poor persecuted elite men. Trained their whole life to babysit Biff Tannen. Whatever will they do for work now?
And yet despite all the beefy guys clinging on to him, clutching him with their big, strong hands, Trump was still able to stop and stick his head up out from behind his protective officers and endanger himself and others.it involves the secret service having to use physical strength to restrain the person
It's a form of argument positioning. Look it up.Amazing you get called a wife beater for saying men are better at providing physical protection.
Does Bigfooty allow this? What a pathetic comment

Your ignorance is not my fault.Calling posters wife beaters should be a perm ban. You're sick.
Your ignorance is not my fault.
And this is what your whole argument is about, that bio males are stronger than bio women, (by and large).I look forward to you once again failing to respond to any of my points and rambling about how it's sexist to suggest men might be stronger than women.![]()
Getting back to the 95% of the job comment someone made earlier, I'm not sure people establishing and checking perimeters, communicating, and analyzing layouts etc would make for the best YouTube videos.And yet the vast majority of times where there's a security breach it involves the secret service having to use physical strength to restrain the person. You can actually check this on youtube
Ha, I don't think so.That was after they had confirmation the shooter was dead.
It's circles of containment. The inner circle is where you might need strength, but that's given through numbers. THe outer circles are about observation skills, judgement and decision making.And yet the vast majority of times where there's a security breach it involves the secret service having to use physical strength to restrain the person.
