Hah! Seems like that could backfire a little too easily. It seems like half of the stories are about cops who ask the TSA how to do their jobs.

I was thinking that there might be some sort of, "Well we better call ABC, so they can shut down this checkpoint/terminal/airport, because a they shouldn't be operating without an XYZ supervisor."

I like it! I actually filed a complaint about the underlying issue and the fact that a TSO lied to me. The issue was addressed, but not the behavior. I was pondering filing another separate complaint about the lying.
