(Like everybody named Bob Johnson)-Are You A Terror Suspect on the TSA No-Fly List?

Question

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/10/05/60minutes/main2066624.shtml

CBS got a hold of the $145 million, 44,000 -name no-fly list compiled by the TSA.

The Transportation Security Administration's secret no-fly list used by intelligence and law-enforcement agencies includes some very unlikely terror suspects -14 of the 19 dead 9/11 hijackers, and every single person named "Robert Johnson."

Tens of thousands of innocent people have been confused with terrorists. Many passengers have been detained by authorities. Peace activists and other Bush administration critics have also been grounded.

Once a name finds its way into the database, there's no way to get it out. The net result is a no-fly list that may be useless. Many of the worst terrorists are kept off for security reasons, while innocent people are unable to clear their names.

Has the TSA's no-fly list has become a bureaucratic, terrorist and civil liberties threat in itself? Please read the CBS story link above.

Answer 2

I saw the story tonight on 60 Minutes.
More government corruption or what?!!
$145 million & the terrorists names aren't on the list
for security reasons? Then, what's the purpose?
To show the American public that they are allowed to
be bullied by the gov.?
Disturbing!

Answer 3

This is proof of the paranoia that this country has entered . Also it's already known about the no fly list seeing how it has messed up most people's flights .
