Just by hearing the sentiments of the average person, "Anything is OK if it keeps us safe", maybe the courts will see it the same way.

Who will be actually in court to defend the TSA? Their lawyers only?

Sorry to say this, but I really do not have much faith in our court system. It sold out long ago.
Serious question: What other law abiding option besides court action do you see stopping this madness? Convince a veto-proof majority in congress? Convince the guy in the oval office?
