When you wear the uniform an organization that employs you, it is expected that you behave in a certain way. As a retired LEO, I NEVER wore my uniform except at work. I did not want the responsibility, nor liability even in the short distance from my home to work. Chillian, unfortunately, you have accepted the lower standards that has become the TSA. You can't on one hand, rewrite the bill of rights, and then on the other hand act like an imbecile in public. Although, I will admit that the TSA look like imbeciles no matter what the venue. Particularly when the phrase "do you want to fly today?" spews out of their mouths. There is a reason that this organization is not respected. This just adds to it.
