It seems even the dogs at the White House weren’t trained properly.

In light of the revelation, ABC News published “7 Questions for Secret Service Director Julia Pierson After White House Intrusion.” One of them: Why weren’t the Secret Service dogs unleashed on Gonzalez when he was barreling toward the first family’s home?

Essentially, the dogs couldn’t be trusted to get the right guy. From ABC News:

The K-9 unit, a team of Belgian Malinois dogs trained to attack intruders, was also not deployed. Sources say officers were afraid the dogs would attack the officers pursuing Gonzalez instead of the intruder himself.[su_csky_ad]

    They should use watch cats.

    That’s why they need ham guns. Shoot em with ham and release the hounds.

    You really need to meet my cat. She’s skeery.

      I suppose a skeery cat would work if she was enough of a psychopath.

        Just between us (since no one else can read this super-secret thread), she once held me hostage upstairs for 6 hours. I’d try to open a door and a claw would come through swiping at me. She just turned on me, and yes, I ratted her out to the cops. They rescued me and I took her to the vet the next day. Naturally, they were no help because she’s a psychopath.

    The secret service should consider giving their agents guns.

    You let the guard dogs take care of the intruder , nobody goes out until the dogs run him down . the guy won’t go far with the dogy ripping at him if he moves
