    Not necessarily, they just have Fed resources, could be a parole absconder unit. Not every Marshal is Raylan Givens. Fugitive apprehension are usually in baseball hats and soft armor.

    The goal is to get off the X to treat any wounded or eliminate threat then treat. It's a hard thing to do when a buddy goes down but talking rifles, aka supressive fire is pretty hard for a stateside leo to do and not lose their job, and that's if they have people capable and in position to do this.

    Apparently there is video of the incident. From the short clip I saw it looks like the Marshals got pinned down and were returning fire at an elevated position.

    Riots are like sports, it's better to watch it on TV at home.

    It's f*****g great, putting holes in people, all the time, and it just puts 'em down mate, they drop like sacks of s**t when they go down with this.
