So they are standing in line to get through the checkpoint and security comes up and says, "If you gentlemen will come with us we will expedite you through".

So they look at each other mildly confused and go with the security who walks them to the other side of the security barrier and tells them to have a nice flight.

Now not once did they ask for ID or ask them what agency they were with, they just assumed they were with the DEA because of the jackets.

So they get on the plane and another passenger taps one of them on the shoulder and makes a comment about how it must be nice to get that kind of treatment. They look at the guy and tell him to look at the name on the jackets a bit better and that this is one scary mistake if they had some sort of ill intent.

So is the hassle really doing anything? nope not a bit when the complete morons working the frontlines have no clue how to do their jobs properly.
