I guess someone finally read all the way to the bottom of 18/930 and realized all entrances had to be posted.

Part of the Anti-Drug Abuse Act. The Secret Service is very forward thinking.

They missed the first President Clinton. They're just getting ready for the second.

Last time I checked, civilians could NOT carry in DC. So who is it that the secret service thinks is going to read, and heed, the new signs?

So if they issued at the same rate, there are now 60+ people the sign could apply to in DC. :shock:

No guns are allowed, but somehow intruders can be inside. Allowed or not Allowed, does really matter? They are already in. So said Hillary Clinton.

Since a federal marshal is the only one that can arrest a sitting president, maybe the signs are for the marshal service!
