[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump needs to get his own security. Democrats are trying to remove his right to USSS protection, Myorkas is denying increases for protection, and now there's been an assassination attempt from a rooftop 150 yards from his podium.  The Penn state police said that rooftop wasn't part of the perimeter-- what? It's USSS and Law Enforcement's job to CREATE an adequate perimeter. The max effective range on an AR-15 is 600 meters, and they allowed an unsecured rooftop at 150 meters? This cannot be a simple mistake. There needs to be a full investigation and prosecutions for these people who are attempting to clear the path for assassins. [/quote]

That’s not how protection of former presidents has ever worked. Ever.

Listen to the reports. The oversight was clearly on the part of the local law enforcement who attendees described were untrained and inadequate to neutralize the threat, not with the SS.[/quote]

The USSS doesn't just show up and accept whatever the keystone cops tell them. You are completely wrong. They are supposed to create a perimeter-- this is not hard. All security is about creating a defensible perimeter, and improving security is often about moving that perimeter out even further, either literally or conceptually.

It doesn't matter whether you're protecting presidents or widgets. Security concepts are the same. Guns, gates, guards. [/quote]
