Secure the people’s house, but don’t obscure it

 Recently in this Washington Post newspaper article, it has been announced that the White House needs to advance their technology, and obtain new systems of rules governing affairs of the state. Also it has been stated that there should be a much higher fence around the White House and should most certainly lock the doors. Since it has been newly a controversial issue, the White House should reconsider some innovative changes to its complex. In the article, Eugene Robinson can't believe that "a man could climb over the White House, run across the North Lawn, and barge through the main entrance." Surprisingly, the intruder was able to speed in the direction of the ceremonial East Room before being caught. Fortunately, a few minutes before this chaotic situation, "President Obama and his family had departed the premises by helicopter. Furthermore, detectives distinguished the man as "a 42-year-old Omar Gonzales." Once the security guards stopped him,  he was tackled and pinned down. However, "five rings of security should have kept the man from reaching the front door," but unfortunately each of them failed. Because of this uncontrolled incident, it is shown that the "White House is vulnerable" Since the building is clearly defenseless, intruders are easily able to harm the President "or deface a building that symbolizes our democracy." Towards the end of the article, it is said that "the wrought-iron fence in front of the White House is only 7 feet 6 inches." Obviously this height is considered unsafe for the President and his family because of the unaware occurrence. Eugene Robinson strongly believes that there should be a newly "elegant, black, wrought-iron fence" created to protect the entrance of the White House. Also, the spokesperson anticipates that "the front door of the White House should be locked at all times" regardless of any inconveniences with the "people who live and work there." Even though this disruption was not correctly handled, the Secret Service should have immediately locked all doors right before the intruder jumped over the fence.
