Well, that ain't the case in HSV~ We got LEOs and TSOs going on fishing outings together (the kind with actual, like, rods and reels and real, honest-to-god fish with hooks and stuff), and any LEO is welcome at any of the TSA dinners we have (like, we'll organize something every month or two where everyone brings in a dish and we have a big ol' time).

Hell, two of the LEOs are married to some of our TSOs.

The only time there's ever been friction between the public saftey office and TSA here in HSV was back when we first started, and one of the Captains threatened to start handing out jaywalking citations to the TSOs when they were leaving their shift if they didn't use the crosswalk. He got a stern talking-to from the Chief, since he totally didn't care about airline personnel or the public not using the crosswalk, and the whole thing was forgotten about in a couple of weeks.
