Arresting the guy was what he wanted.
Probably so, but the jury found him not guilty on all counts.
Jury Finds Phil Mocek Not Guilty of All Charges From TSA Arrest From the article:
After an hour of deliberation Friday evening, a Bernalillo County, New Mexico, jury found Phil Mocek not guilty of all four charges he faced after refusing to show his ID and using a video recorder at a TSA checkpoint in 2009. ...
.....According to Edward Hasbrouck of the Identity Project, Mocek did not testify, and defense rested on Friday without calling any witnesses or presenting any evidence.
lol, the defense didn't rebut the charges and the jury still found him not guilty. Seems the flying public is fed up, and rightly so (IMO, of course).

We need s few more folk willing to stand up and not submit to the facist bastards. I was fully prepared to do so over the Christmas holidays, but they didn't screw with me at all that trip.
