Hardly 'passive', but not as aggressive as I'd prefer.
The only case you mentioned there relevant to the checkpoint, Bierfeldt, was "voluntarily dismissed" by the ACLU when the TSA changed their policy.
I think what people are asking, myself included, is what is the ACLU going to do about the alleged numerous and egregious 4th amendment violations going on at the checkpoint.
It's good that they're looking after the few trapped on the no fly list or the few who get harassed for wearing Arabic t-shirts, but what are they going to do to help the many?
Is it just going to be amicus briefs?
