A Ron Paul campaign worker, Steve Bierfeld, was detained and harassed at the St. Louis Airport by TSA employees.  Bierfeld was there attending a Campaign for Liberty event.  Bierfeld claims that St. Louis law enforcement had sent out a warning that those attending the event could be "militia men".   TSA agents wanted to know why Bierfeld was carrying cash on his person.  Additionally, Bierfeld taped the conversation, unbeknownst to TSA officials present.

"In addition to the cash, I was carrying Campaign for Liberty literature and I was carrying Ron Paul bumper stickers, so my immediate thought was these guys already know about what I do and where I work and they are probabvly aware of the MIAC report maybe I shouldnt say something right away, Steve Bierfeldt tells Judge Andrew Napolitano.
