Well this is just me but I don’t want a bunch of door kicking military type mercs handling airport security for the general public. These are the kinds of guys who were mixed in with the jumped up BLM forest rangers in the Bundy ranch standoff. Some people might not have a problem with it.

Personally I would like to see the airports handle their own security and go back to walking through a metal detector with your shoes on and maybe pass by a bomb sniffing dog as you come through and then if you don’t set off an alarm you go to your gate. The Kibuki theatre that the TSA is putting the American public through has nothing to do with terrorism or security. Its a desensitization process to attempt to train the public to submit to anything just because they are told to.

Bu that’s just me.

What you call 'military type mercs' are almost always retired American vets who served our country honorably. Here is a bio for one of the Blackwater 'mercs' that was killed in the ambush in Fallujah that lead to the Battle of Fallujah.

Stephen "Scott" Helvenston (June 21, 1965 – March 31, 2004) was a former United States Navy SEAL. He was working as a security contractor for Blackwater Security when he was killed in the 31 March 2004 Fallujah ambush within days of arriving in Iraq.

Helvenston's great-great-uncle was Secretary of War Elihu Root.[1]

He joined the Navy at 17 and became the youngest person to complete Navy SEAL training.[2] He spent 12 years in the Navy SEALs until he left in 1994[3] as an E-6 (Quartermaster First Class).
