    Yeah but the buck doesn’t stop at the local PD, if the local PD aren’t handling their end of things properly it’s the secret services job to notice that, and either correct it themselves or not let the person they’re protecting go out in an improperly secured area.

      Agreed. Just saying they definitely deserve some blame. (And the BS their local DA has been saying is annoying at best.) The simplest thing should have been to delay or postpone the event. But I imagine they almost always have “people of interest” at events, and (somehow) never did see a gun or weapon.
