No one is disputing that a 20-year-old college student smuggled box cutters, bleach and matches onto commercial flights. What is in dispute is whether he deserves praise or a jail sentence. The student said what he did was 'an act of civil disobedience with the aim of improving public safety for the air-traveling public.' The federal prosecutor calls it a crime. Civil disobedience has an honorable place in American history, when it comes to looking back on past battles over civil rights. But does it fit as a challenge to homeland security?
