Some on here are of the belief that this agent exhibited
"poor judgement/unprofessional behavior" for a Secret Service agent and that his punishment is appropriate, maybe even too lenient.(Six months suspension, loss of $40,000.00 and blown career)

Yet nobody has yet mentioned the SS agent(middle-eastern) who was removed from an airplane for insufficient paperwork, etc. and then essentially had a full blown temper tantrum in public. What was his punishment? Last I heard it was going to be the possibilty of a cash award far greater than $40,000.00

Good point. He's probably been promoted to a position in senior management since then.
