The agents are 'supposed' to be protecting America. Not just the people, but it's ideals as laid out in the constitution and the bill of rights. If someone in that position takes umbrage with someone else exercising their rights, then they are the wrong person for the job.
You don't have to like it, just like I don't have to like reading the endless swill of weak minded, shortsighted arguments like the brain numbingly asinine one you've just posited. What you do have, as a citizen of a country that gives it's people rights, is a moral obligation to acknowledge and respect those rights and to ensure they are administerd equally and without prejudice, even if it's hard sometimes. You do not have the right to pick and chose which rights other people can exercise, especially when you are in a position to do just that.

Where are you getting that from? They have a job to do which they were hired to do. At the end of the day they go home, eat dinner and watch TV. Nothing more than that.
Why don't you go out and talk to them and see if (other than lip service) they have a clue at all about what you are suggesting they should be protecting.
