what they might do rather than what they are doing, which is not keeping the pics taken at kiosks

Do you have proof of that? I personally don't trust what law enforcement says. They have already proven themselves incompetent and to have no respect for the law, what more reason do I need to not trust them?

Even if I do believe them, making things inconvenient for the police is just a small way for me to get back at them for making my life inconvenient. If enough people push back and slow TSA to a crawl, they'll reconsider the policy.
