No man, no uniform or anything on my clothes that would say anything about my profession. I don't really flash my badge at public places because flight attendants/pilots are more prone to "dump" pts on you instead of dealing with it themselves. If something serious happens I will get up and do my part.

If they wanted to take the shears I would break the handle off. Quite honestly I wanted to see if they are going to be a problem so I didnt leave them at home. On the xray shears may show different since unlike scissors handles are made out of plastic so it would looks like a bent flat piece of metal.
