Any rule about not being able to extend middle fingers in silent protest while being scanned?

...particularly if you in the the "hands up" position?

There's this precedent:

No citations for giving the finger to police, judge says
Tuesday, March 24, 2009
By Torsten Ove, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Memo to cops everywhere: You can't cite someone for giving you the finger.

That's essentially what a federal judge ruled yesterday when he said a city police sergeant was wrong to cite a Regent Square man for flipping him off in traffic three years ago.

U.S. District Judge David Cercone granted summary judgment to David Hackbart, who said in a federal suit that Sgt. Brian Elledge violated his constitutional rights by issuing him a citation in 2006.

"Elledge's response to Hackbart's exercise of his First Amendment right was to initiate a traffic stop and issue a citation for disorderly conduct," the judge wrote. "Clearly, Elledge's conduct was an adverse action in response to Hackbart flipping him off."

The case will now proceed to trial in U.S. District Court on the underlying claim that the city doesn't adequately train its officers to know when they're violating someone's rights.

The Supreme Court has consistently ruled that giving someone the finger, even a police officer, is protected free speech.

No need to be nasty about it, just subtle...very subtle.

Just curious...

1. What would be the point?

Only the screener would see it and this mess is not their fault.
