Christopher created a Northwest Airlines boarding pass generator that would allow creation of a boarding pass. With or without identification, a boarding pass is needed to pass the TSA security checkpoint.
This demonstrates by focusing on people (and their identification), the TSA is creating a false sense of security - a security theater that gives the appearance of security.
Some politicians have called for Christopher's arrest.
The recent 60 Minutes story revealed that the really bad terrorists are kept off the no-fly list, so that they would not be able to discover they are under surveillance.
If you can make your own boarding pass, refuse to show identification, and some terrorists are kept off the TSA no-fly list, what is the purpose of the no-fly list and the demand to present identification at the checkpoint?
