Can't wait to see their superiority complex now.

I do respect people with jobs like these because they do a job most others would not do. They earn a living doing tough jobs and from what I have seen dont act like they are better than most.
TSA workers on the other hand think they are the $hit. They think they can talk down to people and are better than them. DOnt know why but they do. I will never respect a TSA employee because of the way most of them are. Unfair? Probably. But I have dealt with enough of these clowns that it just ****es me off. I am nice to them but as soon as one tries to get smart with me or act better than most passengers, I lose my tact and treat them just like they treat everyone else

I'd rather see a badge on a Janitor any day...

TSA=A**clowns!
Giving them a badge is an insult to anyone who has ever worked hard to earn a badge or taken an oath to serve and protect and to put ones life on the line to protect others. I freaking guarantee that none of these "badged" A**CLOWNS would put their lives on the line for anyone. They would probably duck and cover like all the passengers, then when the incident was done, they would pop up and act all tough. They are not educated, have no formal law enforcement training, most probably wanted to be police or firefighters but lacked the intelligence, determination, physical ability and skills necessary to get the job, so now they want to play all rent a cop tough. Pathetic and disrespectful! If they want respect they need to earn it like all the rest of us out there! Treat people the way you would want to be treated would be a good start for the TSA!

Airport screeners will get badges after finishing a two-day training program covering issues related to badges
Two days of training for badges?
