I have a buddy who's an ATF Agent. When he gets on board, they let him carry his .40 caliber, but they take his nail clipper (even though he's a fed).
Conversely, I represented a TSA Agent (on a probation violation for his second DUI arising from a seperate hit and run). What a flake. At least he had great stories. The best was when they searched a soldier's bag coming back from Iraq and found a claymore. Since the boots carry the same chemicals in the detection equipment, they figured it was routine . . . until the poor bastard almost detonated the thing in the terminal playing with that "clacker" thingy. That little bugger made its way through Frankfurt, New York and into Los Angeles.
Hey - glad they keep lighters off planes. I feel much safer.
(Will Tony disappear some day for blabbing . . . . ?)
