huh, well, when you are handing the president a letter urging him to take/not take a certain course of action, you aren't really acting as the press any more, are you? A) you have to get close enough to do that and B) you aren't reporting the news, you are making it. Nonetheless, the incident feels way too heavy handed. The police may not work for the White House, but I strongly suspect they are guided by the Secret Service when it comes to matters of the president's security.
