I wasn't really sure of what forum to put this in.
I was stunned. These officers are trained and sworn in just like Chicago police. However, they are not armed. They are directed to 'run and hide' in case of an active terror/shooter event. It is singular to just this airport, a very busy one. I think it is ridiculous.

might teach them to develop more peaceful skills in how to handle and diffuse issues as opposed to just blow em away cos quicker and easier.
I was thinking about a terror or active shooter situation, that they should have guns. You can't use peaceful skills for those, generally.
