I want to be worried but it's kinda hard to be when somebody can't sneeze near the White House without a hundred Secret service guys piling on you.

Well, I am guessing that the President is not even the target at least. ESPN made it plenty clear that he isn't in Washington today.

Back in my day, the President carried around a blunderbuss handgun. There were always shots being fired near the White House.

I believe he was saying that ESPN was hyping up the college basketball game being played on an aircraft carrier between North Carolina and Michigan State. Though I didn't watch much ESPN today, I'm assuming they were hyping up the fact that Obama was in attendance for the game.

Man, post 9/11 you've gotta been legitimately psychotic to try something like that, whatever it was they were aiming for.

Have any of you guys ever been to the "real" Washington DC? Place is a freakin' dump outside of the touristy/governmenty part. Wouldn't be surprised if this was a case of something from there spilling out into the good part of the city.

There was a time when all a President needed to defend himself from a would-be assassination attempt was a walking stick and a hardy breakfast of jonny cakes and scrapple. Then JFK came along and made the world believe we shouldn't just elect Presidents based on their ability to kill wild animals with their bare hands.

Maybe we should make Triple H the next president. He would just no-sell the bullets fired at him and pedigree the would-be assassins.

So just another day in Washington DC? No s***. That place is a hell hole. I automatically assumed it was gang activity and not some idiot trying to shoot at the white house.
