7. Not with the funneling affect of the hallway...

Assuming the SS opens fire, and I think they would have if the VP was endangered, they would open fire with their side arms. So figure 3-5 agents firing 15 rounds down a narrow hallway at a crowd of people. The first 'wave' drops and probably the second. The ones behind, once they collect themselves would have to climb over the pile of bodies, while the VP & Company are escorted out in a different direction.

So, think 8-15 insurrectionists dead or wounded in the hallway. Maybe some of the insurrectionists are carrying, but reports are that it was a small percentage, and besides, the SS has drills for this type of scenarios.
