Gunfire at the Gate: The Erosion of Security in America's Capital The sound of gunfire near the White House is a stark reminder that even in the most secure enclaves, vulnerability lurks.
Last Saturday's incident, where an assailant opened fire on a Secret Service checkpoint and was subsequently shot by officers, has left many wondering if the capital's security measures are adequate.
Incidents like this one have become all too familiar in recent times. In the past month alone, two other instances of gunfire near Donald Trump have sparked concerns about White House security protocols.
