A woman who had her breasts exposed during an airport search by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) was to receive a "nominal" payment as a part of the settlement.
The 24-year-old woman was selected for "extended search procedures" prior to boarding a plane to Amarillo, Texas in 2008.
A lawsuit claimed that the TSA agent pulled her blouse completely down while frisking her.

Not only violating her, but making JOKES about it and having a good laugh at her expense. Pure filth.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's guards ordered a pregnant Arab newswoman to remove her bra and told other reporters to strip to their underwear, journalists said on Wednesday.
"While we appreciate the need for security, it is not remotely acceptable to invite people for cocktails at a five-star hotel and then make them undress at the door," it said.
"One male TSA employee expressed to the plaintiff that he wished he would have been there when she came through the first time and that 'he would just have to watch the video.'"

color of law n. the appearance of an act being performed based upon legal right or enforcement of statute, when in reality no such right exists. An outstanding example is found in the civil rights acts which penalize law enforcement officers for violating civil rights by making arrests "under color of law" of peaceful protestors or to disrupt voter registration. It could apply to phony traffic arrests in order to raise revenue from fines or extort payoffs to forget the ticket.
The appearance of a legal right.
The act of a state officer, regardless of whether or not the act is within the limits of his or her authority, is considered an act under color of law if the officer purports to be conducting himself or herself in the course of official duties.
Under the civil rights act of 1871 (42 U.S.C.A. Section 1983), color of law is synonymous with State Action, which is conduct by an officer that bears a sufficiently close nexus to a state so that the action is treated as though it is by the state.

Perhaps you are forgetting who the court system belongs to. I would think you need to connect the dots between the BAR and the Crown Temple and on up the line as to who they answer to. One hand washes the other. The courts are set up in a masonic system.

Why? Do you know who pays for this "nominal payment"? Do you know who paid for the court proceedings? Do you know who paid for the TSA lawyers?
I'll give you a hint: the same group of people paid for all of them.
That group of people is the American taxpayers.
Suing the government for money accomplishes NOTHING! If you want to be a selfish asshole, go ahead and sue for some paper. But if you want things to change, petition the government and FORCE them to change these security measures as a part of your retaliation.
