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 these highly trained men and women in their
black outfits with their initials in large white letters across their
backs:
“FATASS.”
