Drone Crashes On White House Grounds

by JASmius



Another "Tea Party terrorist attack," no doubt:

A small drone was found on White House grounds early Monday morning.

A Secret Service Uniformed Division officer posted on the south grounds of the White House complex saw and heard a "quad copter" device, approximately two feet in diameter, "flying at a very low altitude and ultimately crashing on the southeast side of the complex" at 3:08 a.m., according to U.S. Secret Service spokesman Brian Leary. The Secret Service immediately sounded an alert and locked down the complex until the device was examined and cleared.

A government employee, who does not work for the White House, told the Secret Service that he was operating the drone near the White House for recreational purposes and lost control of it, the New York Times reports.

Suuuuuure he was.  I had no idea the Tea Party had so thoroughly penetrated the Obama Regime that they could launch drone attacks against the White House itself. Good thing O is insulting the Indian Prime Minister with his incessant Nicorette-chewing on a state visit to India this week, huh?

All snark aside, this ought to be yet another wakeup call for the Secret Service and the military of the kind of threats that hostiles could pose to us here in the "homeland".  Picture a drone with missile capabilities sending a Hellfire-equivalent right in the Oval Office window.  Or a drone with a weaponized biological agent unobtrusively dispensing it over a major U.S. population center.  The terrifying possibilities are practically endless.

Maybe that's why The One is out of the country right now. It's always easier to offer condolences than to try to prevent the need for them.
