If you are travelling on a paid ticket, I recomend you check-in online to avoid getting the SSSS on your boarding pass. All in all the system is a$$ backwards and just a show for people that get on a plane twice a year or once every other month (aka: The General Public).
This has also been my experience, I haven't had anything taken (but now I've opened my mouth) when I've been SSSS, which happens quite a bit on reserve. I always try to check in online also, but usually need to check my flight kit at the airport, so I still have to stand in line. I usually travel domestically in uniform to deal with the TSA (yes, you can read into that) but internationally it is civvies.
Peace out folks.
