The latest TSA ridiculousness thread

[ZenGum]

I'd love to see it go to court, to emphasise to the public just how outrageous the situation is. The TSA has set itself up as a bunch of untouchable (SWIDT?) bullies beyond the law, I hope that gets ended.

And she might win. To prove rape as a crime, she needs to prove beyond reasonable doubt. To prove rape as a civil claim she only needs balance of probability. To defend against defamation claims, she only needs to prove her statements were "reasonable" to balance of probability. That is very doable.

Now all she needs is an unbiased court of law and an honest judge...
