But what amazes me is how the collective you dismiss such people, as I've seen you do so many times in other threads. I guess not many of you can actually see someone saying/believing "I don't agree with this policy, in fact I think it's stupid, but i support TSA in overall".
FWIW, I am one of those people who abhors both the existence and the execution of the TSA. Said TSA is nothing but a collection of employees - people, right? I cannot separate the people from the organization, and my feelings about the TSA, like them or not, extend to its employees who ARE the organization.
I have turned down employment offers where I found the organization or its mission distasteful or otherwise in conflict with my personal values. How did you as a TSA employee not do the same?
I think if you really thought about it and were honest with yourself, you KNOW that the organization you work for is unconstitutional and un-American. Its very existence - let alone the way it conducts itself - is in many ways diametrically opposed to the values that make this country so special to me.
And you know it. The fact that you still continue to work for a treasonous organization leaves me shaking my head in absolute disgust.

Certain people will be very surprised how short a walk it is from the defendant's table to the guillotine. Why waste drugs that are in short supply anyway when a sharp blade can be used over and over again? Heck, the cable TV rights to a live feed can be sold and a profit turned on the deal.

I worked with a number of individuals who I had and still have no respect for and my performance was always commended for my team work. Just because I am working with you and we are doing an excellent job does not mean that we have a good relationship, or that I do or will respect you.

To be fair: not everybody thinks the TSA can defend their actions.
