If some around here ever gets their way and TSA is disbanded, it would be only fitting and proper to line em all up and let a volunteer from the "other side" rip off their insignia. As the uniforms get fancier, all I see is more shiny stuff to rip off!

Someone care to calculate how long it will take People's Volunteer Spiff to rip off 45,000 badges?
