It's unfortunate that federal prosecutors don't often go after current or previous federal government employees who violated the laws of this country under the color of authority with the Executive, Legislative and/or Judicial branches want to provide cover for the violations of law and do just that.
Those who authorized the SPOT/BDO/profiling nonsense -- and those whom they hired for training people in this junk "security" -- are pick-pocketing shysters. Following orders to scam others isn't a very good excuse in my opinion. Not that my opinion will get US(A)As to run with a case against DHS/TSA for participating in this SPOT/BD/"profiling" scam.
