Federal Air Security
Almost 150 years ago, President Lincoln found it necessary
to hire a private investigator - Alan Pinkerton - for protection.
And that was the beginning of the Secret Service.
Since - that time, federal police authority has grown to a
large number of multi-letter agencies - FBI, CIA, INS, IRS,
DEA, BATF, etc.
Now we have the "Federal Air Transportation Airport Security
Service." Can't you see them now, these highly trained
men and women in their black outfits with their initials in
large white letters across their backs:
F.A.T.A.S.S.
I feel safer already.
