A TSA employee displaying a lack of competence regarding basic security knowledge? Shocking. I’m sure that has never happened before.

There were LOTS of reasons they lost. There was justifiable reason to fire every single lawyer and police officer who was dealing with that trial.

Do you think that the police officers have First Amendment rights to free speech and free association while off duty?

How do you answer charges that your work is actually intended to benefit the Plaintiffs’ Bar rather than assure actual justice? Every state has some form of tort claim act that provides a remedy for acts and omissions by government officials, the only issue is that they have caps. Why isn’t that enough? Are unlimited monetary damages really the best solution? Knowing that those damages are going to cost taxpayers and reduce what services a government can offer?

How do you plan to deal with the chilling effect on government workers? If a person is personally liable, even in situations where there is not any egregious civil rights violation and they are indemnified, it will seriously impact their life and could cause them to think twice before acting in the public interest. Don’t you think that this will drive out good government workers and make it harder for agencies to work for the public good?
