Dozens of police officers have voiced concern over a security
stand down order issued by federal officials at Barack Obama's
rally in Dallas yesterday afternoon.
Security details at Barack Obama's rally Wednesday
stopped screening people for weapons at the front gates more than
an hour before the Democratic presidential candidate took the
stage at Reunion Arena, reports the Star-Telegram.
Police officers and security officials were surprised
when they were told to stop using metal detectors and to stop
checking bags at the entrance to the arena.
The Star Telegram article continues:
Doors opened to the public at 10 a.m., and for the first hour security officers scanned each person who came in and checked their belongings in a process that kept movement of the long lines at a crawl. Then, about 11 a.m., an order came down to allow the people in without being checked.
Many officers subsequently complained as they believed
a lapse in security had occurred with thousands of people entering
the arena without even cursory inspections.

The security concerns come on the back of warnings
last week by British Nobel Prize winner Doris Lessing that caused
a media storm. The The 88-year-old novelist predicted
the assassination of Barack Obama if he becomes the
first black U.S. president.
Lessing said: "He would probably not last
long, a black man in the position of president. They would kill
him." going on to comment that it would be better if Hillary
Clinton became America's first woman president with Obama as her
running mate.
As researchers of the JFK
assassination will be aware, in addition to those
who have looked into the assassination of former Israeli Prime
Minister
Yitzchak Rabin, a secret service stand down at a
large public event should set alarm bells ringing.
