Say nothing. Keep your eyes on your bags. Put your shoes back on as quickly as you can and get the hell out of there.
I know that screeners tearing through my carry on because it held a projector have been trying to provoke a reaction and I won't give them the satisfaction. When they pull out my (retired LEO) badge, look at it and then grind through my things, including reading material in folders, using as many as a dozen cotton swabs, it just isn't worth it.
Oppression in America will not come from a foreign enemy, but from our government's reaction to a foreign threat. Don't let them put you on a no-fly list because you reacted to their un-american conduct .

But we're allowing it to happen, aren't we?
Of course, the problem is that we aren't listened to in the grand scheme of things.
