"As for the pilots complaints about having armed agents on board who have to pass less strenuous tests than they is required of them, I agree with their complaint."

So do I, on general principals.

But nobody seems to have addressed the biggest question that this thread has posed: Why the hell do Dept of Education and EPA (!!!) officials need to carry a concealed weapon?

Why the hell do Dept of Education and EPA (!!!) officials need to carry a concealed weapon?

They're Americans, and as such, have the same Right to do so as the rest of us.

But from the standpoint of our federal masters, because they work for the feds, they are better than the rest of us.
