"UPDATE: There was NO shooting outside of the White House. A man threw firecrackers over the White House fence. He was quickly engaged and taken down by Secret Service Agents"

I hope that is what it was, and I hope Mr. Firecracker sees several felony charges if that is the case.

The fact that all they did was tackle him shows some damned good training. I don't think I would have been quite as calm. Scratch that...I KNOW I wouldn't have been.

Probably a good thing I'm a graphic artist and not SS.
