Security Experts?

Way back last year in the midst of the 14-year-old police impersonator scandal, J-Fed ordered a review of security procedures and had Auditing & Internal Control run surprise "inspections" that attempted to violate station security. He also proposed that the Secret Service evaluate the Districts.

Maybe it's a good thing they didn't go through with that:
  • It turns out that Tareq and Michaele Salahi, the Virginia couple who made their way into the White House's first State Dinner without invitations, weren't alone.

    A third attendee arrived without an invitation, and entered with the official delegation of Indian Prime Manmohan Singh, for whom the dinner was held in November.

    The Secret Service said today that an investigation into the security breach that enabled the Salahis to waltz into the White House and shake hands with the president and pose for pictures with other White House officials "has revealed that a third individual, who was not on the White House guest list, entered the State Dinner.''

Supposedly one of the most secure buildings on the planet, guarded by a professional force, armed to the teeth with everything up to ground-to-air missiles, and three people get in, two of whom shake hands and pose with a man who is potentially the #1 target of any whacko with an agenda?

We can only imagine what might be wandering the hallways of the Districts if the Secret Service "evaluated" our stations. All those homeless people shaking hands and taking pictures of the Watch Commanders - how would any work ever get done?
