In the Line of Fire (and boobs)


Let’s say you’re part of an elite force of highly trained, critically important security personnel who have a reputation for professionalism and self-sacrifice. In fact, one of the legends attached to your position is that you’re so dedicated that you will take a bullet for those you are protecting. And those you are protecting are the highest value targets in the world. You are an agent in the United States Secret Service.

Given all that, how stupid, how utterly imbecilic, would you have to be to bring a group of prostitutes up to your suite of rooms while you’re in a foreign country? Why would it occur to you to hire prostitutes at all? Wouldn’t you be aware that such an action is a gross dereliction of your duty? Do you not know how this subjects you to potential blackmail and scandal and that it compromises the security of the people you’re protecting? Wouldn’t you realize that this would more than likely get you fired in disgrace? 

I’m not sure what else to say about this. It’s so hugely stupid, I wonder that these guys were even able to qualify as agents in the first place.

Sheesh.
