"Security reviewed after fence-jumper enters White House" by Carol D. Leonnig and Spencer Hsu | Washington Post September 21, 2014
WASHINGTON — The Secret Service launched a security review on Saturday to learn how a man carrying a knife was able to get inside the front door of the White House Friday night after jumping a fence and sprinting more than 70 yards across the North Lawn — the first time that has ever happened.
Didn't Colombia and Miami teach them anything?

The man — who prosecutors said served three tours in Iraq and relatives said had been a sniper — got to the front double doors of the North Portico within seconds, turned the brass knob, and stepped inside the vestibule. He was grabbed and subdued by an officer standing at his post inside the door. The intruder had a folding knife with a 2½-inch serrated blade.
The success Omar Gonzalez, 42, had in breaching White House security Friday night — roughly 10 minutes after the president and his daughters lifted off the south grounds in his helicopter for Camp David — exposed gaps in the Secret Service’s efforts to keep the first family safe and make the White House a ‘‘hard target.’’
The front door on the north portico of the mansion was unlocked at the time.
Mine never is.
It is a frequently used door, just one flight of stairs away from the Obama’s living quarters, and until now, the Secret Service did not imagine an intruder could reach it.
This smells like such crap, and if not it is complete and utter failure and incompetence for how much money?

A trained attack dog — the Secret Service’s failsafe measure for stopping intruders when officers cannot — was not released in this case. The reasons are under investigation.
Now I know this is dog shit.
Now I know this is dog shit.
The Secret Service trains its personnel to not shoot intruders on the grounds unless they appear armed or are wearing bulky clothes or backpacks that could indicate they are carrying a bomb. Many questioned how officers can assess the real risk in the 20 seconds it takes someone to run from the fence to the mansion.
‘‘This is totally and wholly unacceptable. . . . How safe is the president if this can happen?’’ said Representative Jason Chaffetz, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee on national security. ‘‘I just can’t believe somebody can go that far without being impeded. The perception they are creating is only going to inspire more security breaches.’’
My question is has he done something wrong in regards to the bankers and Israel that warrants his head getting blown off?
Or is this just another play for sympathy amidst horrendous poll numbers?

On Friday at about 7:20 p.m., Gonzalez did the unthinkable, authorities said.
Really? Never thought it up as a training exercise, and of not how do they know how fast it takes to get from fence to door?
The 42-year-old from Texas climbed over the north fence line along Pennsylvania Avenue, toward the eastern side of the house’s circular driveway. His breach set off the standard security alarm across the compound. Officers rushed to the North Lawn but were unable to reach him on foot as he ran, threading the needle between the fountain and a security guard booth and ignoring their commands to stop.
Oh, he threaded the needle like those pilots that hijacked planes and crashed them into buildings because that was some good flying for guys who really didn't know how to fly.

Officers at the scene considered Gonzalez to be unarmed and likely mentally disturbed, a law enforcement official familiar with the incident said, and thus a low risk.
WHAAAAAAAAAAT?
With all the shootings and antidepressant ties they say that? Are you kidding me?
Oh, this has -- once again -- the STENCH of STAGED and SCRIPTED BULLSH**!
It turned out Gonzalez was carrying the knife in his pants pocket. One source familiar with the incident said a sniper on scene had Gonzalez in his rifle sights just in case.
Then by failing to wing him he is derelict in his duty and it proves this is all crap, folks.
All mind-manipulating, psyop crap so you will say poor Obummer.

Edwin Donovan, spokesman for the Secret Service, said Gonzalez’s ability to get into the executive mansion is ‘‘obviously concerning. . . . What happened here is not acceptable to us, and it’s going to be closely reviewed.’’
Chaffetz said he is not satisfied with the Secret Service’s call for an internal security review and said he fears the agency’s leadership needs an overhaul.
Remember that fraudulent Indian couple that snuck into the parties?

‘‘The Secret Service has a serious management problem, and they have to acknowledge it. This is an agency that cannot make a mistake, ever,’’ he said. “My concern: What if 12 people had jumped over? Then what? That’s not out of the question.’’
They were out drinking the morning JFK died.

Former agents said they fear the breach might be related to a severe staffing shortage the agency has faced in the last year in its Uniform Division.
OMG! It's the government tyranny wanting more money for protection from fictional threats!

This is the team of officers with primary responsibility for securing the White House grounds, and the service has been flying in agents from field offices around the country to do temporary assignments. Those agents would have less familiarity with the grounds and intruder response plans.
That's the lame ass excuse for the lack of professionalism and training we are told are impeccable at the Secret Service? WTF are we paying for?

"Relatives say veteran who jumped White House fence needs help" by Betsy Blaney | Associated Press September 22, 2014
MIDLAND, Texas — An Iraq war veteran accused of scaling a fence and making it into the White House before the Secret Service stopped him owns several guns that he could have taken with him if he had meant to harm anyone, his former stepson said Sunday.
I rest my damn case.
I rest my damn case.
Omar Gonzalez, 42, was arrested Friday and is expected in federal court Monday to face charges of unlawfully entering a restricted building or grounds while carrying a dangerous weapon — a small folding knife.
Jerry Murphy, whose mother was married to Gonzalez for several years, said Gonzalez suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and needs medical treatment, not to be treated like a criminal.
Obama will be creating even more of those soon.
He said that Gonzalez has been driving across the country and living out of his truck for the past couple of years and that he always carries his knife.
Oh, no, a HOMELESS VET?! Where was the VA?!!!!!

‘‘I know he’s got heavy artillery, you know? He’s got all kinds of weapons and he was trained to use them,’’ Murphy said. ‘‘I believe if he wanted to make a scene or cause problems, he very well could have. But it’s clear that he didn’t.’’
This is a psyop so that returning military vets who could be disgruntled due to disillusionment and lead a resistance can be disarmed.

The Secret Service has come under heavy criticism since the embarrassing breach, which happened when the first family was not at the White House.
The Army said Gonzalez enlisted in 1997 and completed his obligation in 2003. He reenlisted in July 2005 and served until his retirement in late 2012, serving in Iraq from October 2006 to January 2008.
Samantha Bell, who is Gonzalez’s former wife and Murphy’s mother, said Gonzalez was honorably discharged for medical reasons and suffered from plantar fasciitis on his feet, on which he had had some surgeries. She said he also suffered from PTSD.
Surgery on his foot? Meaning he LIKELY COULDN'T RUN VERY WELL but he SCALED A FENCE and still made it through the door, blah, blah, blah!

Yes, this stuff is becoming laughably absurd!

Bell said she and Gonzalez married in 2006 and lived near Fort Hood until she split up with him in 2010 because of his worsening mental condition.
Fort Hood, huh? Home of lone gunman assassins and mind control programs.
After his second tour in Iraq, Gonzalez began carrying a .45 on his hip at all times and kept rifles and shotguns behind the doors in their home, said Bell.

“Omar is a good guy; he’s just got some issues that he needs help with. I think this is a cry out for help,’’ she said.
So what mind-warping prescription pharmaceuticals was he doped up on?

"White House intruder had ammunition, police say" by Michael D. Shear | New York Times September 23, 2014
WASHINGTON — The man who managed to get in the front door of the White House on Friday had a cache of ammunition and weapons in his car at the time of the episode and had been arrested by the Virginia State Police in July with several weapons and a map of the White House in his possession, law enforcement officials said.
OMG, the PILE of a COVER STORY GROWS!
He didn't want to hurt anyone, didn't bring the guns, but he did and they had a map, and oh, boy, does the planting of the evidence on a patsy only increase.
This is such bullish** the BG ought to be embarrassed for shoveling it.

On Monday, federal prosecutors said that officers found 800 rounds of ammunition, two hatchets, and a machete in the car of Omar Jose Gonzalez, 42, of Texas, after they searched it Friday. Police had previously said Gonzalez was carrying a small knife when he entered the White House.
The prosecutors made their disclosure before a judge as they argued that Gonzalez, an Iraq War veteran, should continue to be held in jail because he posed a danger to President Obama.
The judge agreed, and Gonzalez will remain in custody until a hearing next month.
The NSA has been watching you guys, right?

In late August, Secret Service officers stopped Gonzalez in front of the fence on the White House’s South Lawn after they noticed a hatchet in his waistband, the officials said.
So this guy was JUST BEGGING to GET CAUGHT.
What did they do, call off the psyop that day or just were using it to sheep-dip the set-up.

The officers searched Gonzalez’s car, finding two dogs and camping equipment but no weapons. He was not arrested or questioned further.

In July, Gonzalez was arrested after he led Virginia troopers on a high-speed pursuit on Interstate 81 in southwest Virginia in his Ford Bronco.
After he was stopped, police found the vehicle filled with weapons, according to a release by the State Police.
Among the items found in Gonzalez’s vehicle in July was an arsenal of 11 guns, including two shotguns and four rifles, some equipped with scopes and bipods that a sniper would use, and “a map of Washington, D.C., with writing and a line drawn to the White House,” law enforcement officials said.
And all I have are sloppy, disorganized notes to my Boston Globes.

He also had four pistols, three of them loaded, and a revolver.
The inventory of Gonzalez’s vehicle listed by the Virginia State Police indicates the items were found stored in his vehicle’s “bulky floor.”
Virginia officials said Gonzalez was charged with reckless driving, one felony count of eluding police, and possession of a sawed-off shotgun.
That's it?
That's it?
State Police said they took possession of the weapons in the Bronco in July, after Gonzalez was in custody.
A law enforcement official said the weapons were not taken as evidence. “They were stored by police so they wouldn’t be sitting in the vehicle unsecured,” the official said.
Just seized them illegally then.

The State Police said they had alerted the Secret Service about Gonzalez’s arrest.
Uh-oh!
Uh-oh!
The fact that the Secret Service knew the man was facing gun charges and had a map of the White House has prompted its director to expand the agency’s internal investigation of the intrusion.
Along with examining how officers at the White House responded to Gonzalez jumping over the fence and whether new security procedures should be implemented, the inquiry will examine how the agency handled its August interaction with him.
The Secret Service increased security Monday around the famous grounds on Pennsylvania Avenue, with some guards openly holding weapons, others escorting dogs. There was talk of expanding the security zone beyond the current area as the investigation began.
Is that what this staged and scripted production was all about?

Obama, asked about the episode, said, ‘‘The Secret Service does a great job, and I'm grateful for the sacrifices that they make on my behalf — and my family’s behalf.’’
He has to say that. Imagine if he criticizes them.

But spokesman Josh Earnest said the president was ‘‘obviously concerned’’ about what had happened.
In court, Gonzalez, with a gray beard and a shaved head and dressed in a standard prison orange jumpsuit, listened impassively as the prosecutor spoke. He could face up to 10 years in prison if convicted of illegally entering a restricted area with a dangerous weapon.
When does his head get chopped off?

The Army said he served from 1997 until his discharge in 2003 and again from 2005 to December 2012, when he retired due to disability, the Associated Press reported.
The two-block section of Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House’s north gates has been closed to vehicle traffic since May 1995, when President Clinton ordered the immediate closure of the road in an effort to prevent a potential car or truck bomb attack.
On any given day, numerous uniformed officers can be seen patrolling parts of the sprawling lawns on either side of the White House, and others are stationed along the fence line.
But the pedestrian-only zone has not prevented all security breaches. Less than 24 hours after Gonzalez’s arrest, a second man was taken into custody after he drove up to a White House gate and refused to leave, the Secret Service said.
If at first you don't succeed, try the same lie again!!
OMG, they REALLY ARE BANKRUPT of IDEAS and the PROPAGANDISTS of GOVERNMENT are FLAILING ABOUT and throwing shit all over the room in the hopes it will stick anywhere to anything!!

The Secret Service identified the man as Kevin Carr, 19, of Shamong, N.J.
Earlier, Carr had been turned away at a different entrance, which he had approached on foot, claiming he communicated with the president through telepathy and had an appointment, a court document said.
