Rather Than Trying Harder, Secret Service Will Add Spikes to WH Fence
So security’s not so good at the White House these days. What’s the Secret Service to do? Try harder? Nah, they’re just going to add some spikes to the fence and call it a day.
The 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 commission approved the proposal at a hearing Thursday afternoon.
The spikes will be added to the fence along the north and south sides of the White House grounds starting Friday, the Secret Service and National Park Service said in a statement Thursday.
Cool. That’s how my parents handled the deer eating all their vegetation too. Guess who have no plants this year.
