If the airport has a good budget, then the airport PD can get all the fancy toys; and practice bomb techniques on unattended bags.

Besides; the more crime cops find at airports, the more their departments get in asset forfeitures.

I'm sure somebody with real LEO experience will weigh in and tell me how wrong I really am.
