I just flew in to Denver, and while I was waiting for my ride, I witnessed a cop bringing a frazzled young lady to tears (literally) as she was trying to pick up her parents at the airport. She had barely pulled into her spot and opened the doors when the idiot thug started hassling her to close up and move along. She tried to patiently explain that her parents had just called her and were heading down the escalator. Did Herr Jackboot cut her some slack and let her wait 1-2 minutes? I think you already know the answer. She got in her car, and called her parents in a panic as she started to cry. The girl was clearly not familiar with the airport and was trying to figure out how she was going to be able to loop around and find the pickup spot again. The cop was relentless. Finally, and it really was just one or two minutes, her parents emerged from the door and the jackass backed off.

Taxpayer dollars at work. I feel much safer.
