>>Nope. There are 15,000 people in the security force here. That includes soldiers, police, FBI, Secret Service, and who knows what other groups. In total there are 60 agencies working on security.

>That's good. I am in favor of that. But, was there really some on top of the hill? If yes, why do you think they are up there?
Well, a few days ago someone found a 50 calibre sniper rifle and ammunition covered by plastic tarps in the hills. Personally I think someone has an illegal weapon for personal use but it cause folks to pay extra attention.
Best,
