At best, the post by Bob is exceptional disingenuous.
The fact the defense did not call a single witness and the jury returned with "not guilty" verdicts in about an hour is a complete repudiation of the prosecution's case and the testimony of the ABQ cop and the TSO supervisor.
Of course, we can all forget hoping that Bob will quote the testifying TSO supervisor who said (paraphrase) "I don't know why we check ID. I just do what I am told."
(But, dang, I might pay good money to see that quote appear on the TSA blog.)
