Well...yeah.  They have to be
intimidating, they're fighting a lost
cause honestly.  For nearly every
president we have had...someone's tried
to kill them.  They may not have made
it out of the planning stage, but
that's a high rate of attempts to be
fighting against.  Intimidation is part
of their plan to weed out the people
who want President X dead...but REALLY
don't want to die themselves.

It's only the truly
insane/desperate/dedicated/suicidal
that go against that many armed agents
in plain sight.
