3. it's absolutely ridiculous
some people have been flying their entire lives, and they could end up on that list because they said something nasty about the pretzeldent on DU, so suddenly they're a terra-ist from one flight to the next.

Like everything else about this government, without the "selection" process being open to inspection, even when you are "on" the no-fly list they don't have to tell you why!

Your ability to move is essentially curtailed. I am certain that being on a no-fly list means great difficulty even driving across the border. Wonder what happens when they cross reference the no-fly list with mortgage applications and job interviews . . .

Want to make sure somebody pays their parking tickets? Put them on the no-fly list. Late paying your electric bill? It's the no-fly list for you buddy.
