The speech fetish at airports today is a created problem, not a preexisting one.
If you read my wording, I did not say that the Security Officer was sensitive, I said it was a "sensitive area". You only have to look at some of the posts in the Travel Safety/Security forum to realise that the whole aspect of TSA and security personnel at airports is a sensitvie topic.
