New White House Fence Jumper Identified as Dominic Adesanya – PIC

According to reporting by Buzzfeed, Secret Service identified the suspect as 23-year-old Dominic Adesanya of Bel Air, Maryland. Adesanya was taken into custody by agents after being stopped by guard dogs on the White House lawn around 7:16 p.m. ET. Video from the scene showed a man kicking and punching a dog.

Adesanya was transported to a hospital with injuries after he was taken into custody.

The cause of the incident was not immediately known, and comes in the wake of an incident last month where 42-year-old Omar Gonzalez scaled the fence and made it inside the White House before being apprehended. The security breach ultimately resulted in the resignation of Secret Service Director Julia Pearson.

This Makes No Sense At All – Man Runs All The Way Into The White House? – Video

Really? In the greatest nation on earth we have to put up with nut jobs jumping the White House fence and running all the way into the symbol of American exceptionalism? How the… what the… why was this man able to not only jump the fence, but allowed, yes allowed to run across the North Lawn and bust into what’s easily considered the most secure place in the country, probably on the face of the earth?

Who was asleep at the wheel? That is the question the Secret Service is asking themselves today after the stranger was arrested inside, yes… dude made it all the way inside the White House.

Now I’ve been inside the White House. It is a place where you must submit to a month-long background check, just to get in the side door. Who would have thought that the way to bypass all that security and still make it into the building was just to jump the fence for a short jog to the front door?

The incident happened on Friday. The video shows the man sprinting across the White House lawn as if on a mission, as if trying to prove that it could be done, that it was possible. He bust through the front door to the building and at that point, was apprehended by Secret Service. As fate would have it, the President and his family had left the building for their trip to Camp David just minutes earlier.

The man, identified as 42-year old Omar Gonzalez of Cooperas Cove, Texas, was taken to the hospital for a mental evaluation and analysis. But I’m sure there will be more analysis among the Secret Service tofigure out exactly what happened.

With all the threats being made to the president and the whole ISIS, ISIL, Islamic State… whatever thing going on, we should all expect a more proactive response from the people hired to protect the president. It is called the most secured place in the nation for a reason, and sitting back and waiting for a potential crazed maniac to break through the front doors of the White House is definitely not proactive. Heads should roll because of this incident.

This incident makes no sense at all.
