What if the next time the guy has a bomb on him

I'm thinking this guy ain't going to have a "next time"

;)

but I know what you're saying.....I think this guy was a lone nutter. OTOH, that doesn't stop me from thinking that terrorists aren't noticing how the SS responds, either.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — An unidentified man tried to set himself on fire outside the White House fence midday Monday, witnesses said.

Onlookers said the incident took place outside the Northwest gate. Uniformed Secret Service (search) agents were seen rushing to surround the man, who had graying hair and glasses. He was heard screaming in pain.

Television cameras captured the aftermath. Smoke hung in the air around the man as paramedics rushed to provide aid. The man appeared to be clutching his hand in pain, but it was unclear how serious his burns were.

A spokesman for the District of Columbia Fire Department (search) said the man suffered burns over about 30 percent of his body.
