Prostitutes, apparently.

I'm just a dumb civilian here but wouldn't announcing to everyone that you're there to protect the POTUS be a bad idea to begin with? Also, considering how many people were allegedly involved, I would have thought that a number of them might have convinced the one who supposedly refused to pay to go ahead and pay up in the interest of keeping something like this from happening.

Not too damn professional, IMO.

Agree. No real upside in trying to impress the low rent local talent with their true identity and purpose.
The ONLY thing that really impresses such talent is the size of one's....................... wallet - or so I've read.

I find it amusing democrat "I had oral sex in the oval office with an intern bill clinton" has not commented..... Hillary said anything?
I don't really care about the working girls but the Secret Service agents talking smack in a bar full of local nationals confirms what I had long thought, the Secret Service is scraping the bottom of the barrel for professional "agents" to guard the Community Organizer.....

These clowns were not gaurding the pres, but were the advance party and probably not the sharpest tools in the SS. Every organization has them. Just take a look around at the mid grade soldiers in any HHC. They aren't asigned to HHC because they are the best......

Not sure I agree with your p'lice work, there.
"sharpest tool"? How lax do you get? Do you seperate the agents into groups based on how "sharp" they are?

Please do not think I am defending these clowns. My point is simply they were there because they are not the best the SS has. Maybe third stringers.

RL, I think that when travelling abroad, a US citizen still has to abide by US law. So laws may not have been broken in Columbia, but US laws were broken. Unless we use Las Vegas laws regarding prostitution, but that might have stayed on Vegas.
Do I win some kind of RL prize now, if I am correct?

Sorry dude .... NO prize for you. (Wa .. Wa .. Waaaaaa .....)
Prostitution is NOT legal in Vegas, only in select counties in Nevada.

Now, had you said that had the S.S. guys were from certain areas of Nevada, then ...... GAME ON !!!!!!!

And by the way, if one of these guys with the prostitutes was my husband, the VERY LAST thing he would have to worry about is the inquiry, because I would have cut off his pee pee and served it to him for dinner.
We all make mistakes, and I will be the first to say that I would not divorce my husband over a one night stand, but when he puts my health at risk by sleeping with a renta-hooha, in a country that is not known for it's cleanliness  , he will never again have to wonder if he can give me something.

I can tell you SF wives are no easy push over. They will not do the cut it off, but: they are not at the first rodeo either. Hell hath no fury like ---.
