I hope the TSA is stupid enough to pursue this!  Imagine the can of worms, the bad press about every instance of groping...

Looks like it's not the TSA pursuing the $500,000, but the TSA agent Thedala Magee and her lawyer.

Thedala Magee. Middle class White woman, I'm sure.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
