The Secret Service is adding a second layer of steel spikes to the top of the White House fence to keep would-be intruders at bay, according to a proposal submitted to the National Capitol Planning Commission.

The ½-inch long steel “pencil point” spikes will be snapped into place at the top of the fence and protrude outward, according to a diagram included in the proposal submitted for the Secret Service by that National Park Service. The spikes will be added to the fence along the north and south sides of the White House grounds. […]

The Secret Service has been studying ways to improve security at the White House since a Texas man was able to climb over the fence and run deep into the executive mansion in September. …

And all this time I thought fences didn’t keep out intruders.

I’ll bet that the WH has a very deep bunker that reaches into Sheol.

What is next?

A moat to keep Americans from their Indonesian
undocumented alQaeda-arming, Constitution-destroying
pro-Sharia Tyrant by Pelosi’s fraud and
Boehner’s and McConnell’s systematic Treason.

If it can keep the Clintons out it’s worth it.

How about posting a border patrol agent? Interesting, so ibama believes a fence will work as a deterrent..???

[manc]

we were told that building a fence shows we are bad neighbors over the border debate and yet this is our house not the so called messiah’s.

But refuses to protect Pam Geller. Spikes to protect a lying socialist ISIS loving POS in government, and nothing for the truthful citizens who pay for the POS's myriad golf vacations and the kobe steaks that his wookie spouse sucks up. In short, business as usual.

Not only is Ibama pro fense but he must be pro-gun,too. He would never disarm his protectors who carry guns? How very Right-wing of him.

Million grinder march. Base of fence. Just sayin’.
