It was not immediately clear why the sedan smashed into an SUV that was part of the motorcade. The driver was surrounded by agents who had their guns drawn.
A sedan smacked into a Secret Service vehicle that was part of President Joe Biden’s motorcade in Delaware on Sunday night.
Following the crash, U.S. Secret Service agents whisked Biden into a vehicle.
Agents quickly surrounded the sedan with guns drawn and aimed at its driver, who had his hands up. The cause of the crash was not immediately clear.
Special Agent Steve Kopek, a Secret Service spokesperson, said the vehicle that struck was securing Biden’s motorcade route.
I’m certainly no A2 lovin back the blue gun nut but if there’s any group that I feel completely fine with having guns, it’s the president’s secret service. These folks are held to the highest standards with the highest training guarding arguably the most important political figure in the world. They are not your average frumpy ass cop with a drinking problem and anger management issues. These sneaky fuckers are hand picked from the best of the best. You never hear about the secret service gunning someone down because they were just in a bad mood that day.
And after you’re disoriented from an accident, you know none of that. All you know is something happened. Now you’re covered with airbag powder, your ears are ringing, blood maybe, and now an armed gang surrounds your car and starts screaming at you.
No that’s not COOL. That’s a dystopia. If you arm your civilians to the teeth, the violent reactions required for any situation escalate dramatically.
Bruh it wasn’t just an accident. This was the presidential motorcade and secret service. Literally everybody in a 10-block radius knew who was there, and whether they had permission to be there.
This person drove their car into the motorcade, and then kept going. Secret service’s job is to protect the president, and as far as anybody knew, this was someone after the president. They weren’t harassing some idiot that was driving drunk, they were pursuing and engaging a very real potential threat to the leader of the nation.
I like how through these comments, you’ve called other users “stupid Americans” and you don’t even know anything about the event in question. Good job kid.
I remember when I lived in Denver and Dubya was president. I225 was completely shut down and I was stuck in a huge traffic jam on the dam road just trying to get around that big old empty highway to get home. One does not simply drive into the presidential motorcade. I mean maybe a massive screwup happened but it seems incredibly unlikely that this guy didn’t do it on purpose.
This is your brain on edgy puberty hormones.
This you?
Lol ok put your dicks away, the Secret Service (in the past decade or two at least) has been laughably unprofessional and, in some cases, derelict in their duty. In fact, the scandals are too numerous to even just point to a single one.
Just Google “Secret Service scandals” and take a look for yourself. Make sure to pay attention to the dates on the articles to see how long they have had these problems.
