Their jackets say “Police.”

Admire the professionalism

A professional wouldn't have the barrels pointed at the fans on the other side of the stadium. They should be on pintle mounts with the stock on the floor, aimed at space.

As they currently are, the bipods are useless. If they need to aim downward that panel or whatever it is gets in the way.

Not secret service.
Local law enforcement.

A LONG TIME PRAIRIE DOG exterminator can appreciate the performance of these rifles. Rifle shots 200 tO 500 yards ARE DAILY CHALLENGES.

I hear 'ya! They don't even like to be looked at, much less have pictures taken of them or their equipment. Wonder who had the moxie to do it, and is he still alive?

Not pictured (or censored) is the phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range.

Yes, I assume it is. One person said he saw a “can” and I assumed he was talking about a suppressor. Wonder what the reasoning was behind bringing a silencer? I’m in grade school and I know these guys are operating at the PhD level, but I need some help here!

Admire the professionalism of the man not looking down to check out the cheerleaders.

How do you know that? One trait of a good operator is outstanding Peripheral vision!

Saw Bush at the College World Series and it didn’t take too long but once the president was there, no more people were allowed into the stadium.

Plus those are the ones you can see, they put them throughout the crowd as well.

I have no personal experience but I would guess that they wouldn’t want to spook the crowd with the sounds of gunfire.

People in a crowd can turn lemming. A lot could get hurt.

That picture is not Secret Service, it is local law enforcement. Notice the "Police" on the back of one of the officers.

I have a friend who worked security for the Lions at Ford Field in Detroit. Every game day, the Detroit Police Dept. would deploy their long range rifle trained swat team to the stadium about 3 hours before game time and they would set up their surveillance positions in the upper levels throughout the stadium........

Looks to me like 2 bolt guns, one in middle appears suppressed, and on the far right possibly some variant (speculation on my part) of Heckler and Koch G28 semi-automatic rifle (designated the M110A1 in Army use features a 16.5-inch barrel)...

The M110A1 in Army use also features a Schmidt & Bender 3-20×50 PMII Ultra Short telescopic sight and a Harris bipod...But not sure about SS using it; can’t really see enough detail...My understanding is agents have some latitude in choice of weapons used...

In competent hands, like SS marksmen, all will “git ‘er done”...

Someone exposed them..

They're not Secret Service, they're local LEO's.........And for what it's worth, they're at every game in every stadium............

If they are secret service, why does it say police on the shirts?

Some heads should roll over this. Total security breach.

And I did see “Police” on their vest so may indeed be city LEOs...Then again, SS might be blending in and not advertising who they are...Purely a guess...OPSEC?
