The actions of a TSA worker who was pulled over during a routine traffic stop betray the general attitude of the TSA in recent month, that the agency is above the law and makes its own rules.

The New Jersey Star Ledger reports that Michael Mazzone, 27, of Roselle Park, a lead transportation security officer employed by the TSA since 2006, is due in Superior Court in Elizabeth on Friday after being arrested in January on a charge of “pretending to hold a position as a sworn law enforcement officer.”

After being stopped for failing to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk, Mazzone told a patrolman who had pulled him over that he was a cop, too, but wasn’t carrying his badge, according to the Roselle Park Police Department.

Specifically, Mazzone claimed to be a “customs inspector”, a position which entails carrying a firearm and the power to make arrests.
