Ted Kennedy was on the no fly list. but he croaked. Quite a few people unrelated to any terror ties are on the list. Over 1,000,000 people are on the list. David Nelson from Ozzie and Harriet was on it, Cat Stevens is on it.
A quick wikpedia list.............
In November 2002 Salon reported that the No-Fly program seemed "to be netting mostly priests, elderly nuns, Green Party campaign operatives, left-wing journalists, right-wing activists and people affiliated with Arab or Arab-American groups." Art dealer Doug Stuber, who ran Ralph Nader’s Green Party presidential campaign in North Carolina in 2000, was prevented from flying to Europe on business in October 2002. He was repeatedly pulled out of line, held for questioning until his flight left, then told falsely he could take a later flight or depart from a different airport. Barbara Olshansky, then Assistant Legal Director for the Center for Constitutional Rights, noted that she and several of her colleagues received special attention on numerous occasions. On at least one occasion, she was ordered to pull her trousers down in view of other passengers
No fly is the same list that's used for the terror watch list also.........
If the folks that wanted to protect Americans looked at the refugee lists and used verified sources for terror based lists then it would be OK.
Be careful what you wish for because you may be on the list also. Just sayin. Knee jerk politics never work out well.
