This is the part that astounded me:

This could have been that guy's last earthly moment, had they been American swats up there. I'm just guessing they are the hotel's regular Scottish security for the building. Could be wrong. Certainly hope they were not USSS. if so, they could have shot the balloon and he would have fallen to earth. But as I think that through, not knowing if he was armed or suicide vested, they should have taken him out. Look how close he came not just to the President, but several of his top aides who were still on the lawn.

Good find!

I think you mean the para-glider, not balloon.

Shooting parachutes usually does not disable them much, but a minigun would likely do it.

The fall would likely be fatal.

The fall would likely be fatal.

And it might have taken out several on the ground. They should have fired when he was still out over the water or the greens, since they no doubt had telescopic sights. I can see why they hesitated, though, since it could have easily been a harmless prank, as it seems in hindsight. But the next one may not be.

Our poor president is going to become a prisoner in the WH, like so many have complained of before. I don't recall even Bush and Reagan having it so bad, although Cindy Sheehan set up an encampment on the road leading to Dubya's ranch.

By air or drone is a new level of dangerous. The SS needs to make an example of the next one.

Heck, they need to make an example of this one.
