          why doesn't secret service have pepper spray instead of guns? Since Pontus hates guns.

          Probably someone off meds.Was at Whitehouse in 1982. Even then, heavy presence of officers. Foolish to do anything odd.

          Imagine that. So, it IS possible to shoot-to-halt without killing the person! Some police departments could benefit from such training.

          Obama has guns to protect him even when he's no where near in danger. And they don't wait around to shoot.
