It has to be SOP on a normal raid - even regular cops get shot at when delivering subpoenas. It would be stupid to do a raid without the legal protection to shoot to kill if necessary.
The big "however" here is Trump is guarded by USSS. There were already federal officers on premises. The correct move would've been to have an order sent from main justice ordering the USSS to move Trump to an office or something. Of course he wasn't there, so it wasn't necessary.
Someone needs prosecuted for giving that order. It was either "made for TV/newspapers" or an attempted hit.
