No, Fox is STILL just speculating on the aircraft thing. All the Secret Service has said is that the evacuation was due to an emergency situation.

Yes, absolutely, since "bad things" can happen, let's outlaw flying, driving, and congregating in public places in America.

Everybody stay home and watch TV, then we'll all be safe.

It is a good practice/drill for the White House. You never know when it could be a real attack, and I HATE THAT! God Bless everyone in the White House!

I hope we scrambled.

We did - apparently that's how they figured out that it was a "mistake."

Better safe than sorry...

No intrusion and the staff is being let back in the White House.

One of these days when something really happens, we're going to be immune to these events :(

ROFL Now who is the one overreacting?

They evacuate a building and maybe scramble some planes, and you liken it to a call to outlaw flying, driving, and congregating in public?

Holy non sequitor red herring strawman souffle!

Reuters (via FNC): Staff let back in; FAA says no aircraft incursion.

They're saying everyone is on pins and needles behind the Turkish attacks.

White House evacuated: No reason given

There was no time for explanations. That funnel cloud was bearing down hard.

Oh Geez, I wish these idiots would wake up and stop violating the Washington ADIZ. It's been there long enough that there's no excuse for not knowing about it. The stupid actions of a few are giving many good pilots a bad name.
