...for those of us on FT who support Mr. Roberts to visibly do this at airports? I'm thinking it should be something simple, like the small ribbons those who support cancer research wear or the "WWJD" bracelets that people wear.

This could be a great conversation starter for people at the airport if it looked interesting enough to them (hence a great way to introduce them to what TSA is really doing to the flying public). It could also be something that might catch on really well-- I could see other pilots, FAs, and GAs perhaps wearing them as a quiet way to show their support and respect for what he did.

Oh, and one other question... To me, what Mr. Roberts did makes him an American hero of sorts. He saw something that was clearly wrong-- disgusting violations of our Fourth Amendment rights-- and stood up for it... at significant risk to his own well-being.

Why is it that the crazy FA who stole two beers and flew down an emergency exit slide got more media coverage and attention than this guy? How is it that someone who does something wild and crazy is made out to be more of a celebrity icon than someone who took a serious stand for his beliefs? Perhaps if Mr. Roberts had worn a clown suit and deficated on himself during the whole exchange the media would have picked it up, as it would have been more "entertaining"...
