They were seriously acting like police officers.

Since its my first time flying a US based airline Im just wondering if this is a standard practice for FA's to behave like TSA?
Worse than the Emirates FA who you said falsely accused you and made you move seats?

You can definitely get the occasional power-trippy FAs. Though also plenty of really great ones...and some in between. In fact that's the biggest problem with domestic airline FAs - inconsistency...even within the same airline.
