It's about as brave as a redneck driving by some black kids screaming ###### at them. Seriously, you are characterizing people that may just check some ID's as child molesters. You sound unhinged.

I think it would have been perfectly reasonable for German citizens to make uniformed members of the SS feel uncomfortable and unwanted by means short of violence.

Is this situation different? Is the difference one of quality or quantity?

Are you seriously asking if the situation of the TSA is different than the situation of the SS in Nazi Germany?

Yes.

It appears to be provoking a kneejerk response from people who don't want to address the question.
