There will be personal risk, expense, and all the other issues when fighting government but it has to be done. Hopefully some advocate groups will stand with the abused traveler.

I'm really disappointed that these groups aren't doing a better job defending the public's right to travel without having their genitals fondled by TSA.
RAINN doesn't seem to want to get involved at all to try to stop TSA's abuse. Here's their "advise" for sexual assault survivors to get through a TSA "pat down": https://www.rainn.org/articles/airpo...rity-survivors

I believe at one time I read a suggestion from them to "go to your happy place during the screening process" or words to that effect. Balderdash.
