This time there was no harm done....EXCEPT....those who would do harm now know they can land inside the fence very close to the WH and not be fired upon!!!!

We are once again choosing to exhibit weakness where we should be showing every ounce ounce of prevention at our disposal.

And sitting and talking with the pilot is not an acceptable course of action. The next pilot may very well detonate something that at a low altitude could do significant damage and maim or kill many people.

Alarmist? Not one bit. The enemy only understands a show of force/strength.
This event was very, very poorly handled by those charged with protecting the WH.
