Canseco's airport flap: Anger or a political opportunity? (http://www.mysanantonio.com/default/article/Canseco-s-airport-flap-Anger-or-a-political-3798437.php)

U.S. Rep. Francisco “Quico” Canseco and the Transportation Security Administration suddenly found themselves at odds this spring.
After two security-line skirmishes at San Antonio International Airport, including one Canseco called “an assault” and another in which San Antonio police labeled the irate congressman an “unruly passenger,” the TSA says it has reached an “amicable resolution” with Canseco.
...
Canseco's contention that his rights were violated is in line with a national debate about the infringement on civil liberties by the government following the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
“I think it's very important to secure our air traffic,” he said. “I think we still face a lot of dangers, but we are going about it the wrong way.”
