****BARACK OBAMA GROUP***** most recent fence jumper and President Obama [View all]
I know some at DU regard this as a big joke, but to me, it's not.
I think the Secret Service may want to review security at the White House. From news reports, this latest jumper almost made it to the north portico of the White House.
I say may, since I don't know what else can be done, short of installing a very high outer perimeter fence, drastically increasing personnel inside and outside of the fences, and/or prohibiting pedestrian traffic anywhere near the White House. Security vs. accessibility.
I'm glad the President and his family were safely out of town.
