Does anybody know how you get on the No-Fly List, how you're notified that you're on it, or how you get off it? Ditto for the Terrorist Watch List.

How is a secret, nonreviewable executive department disqualification from exercise of a constitutional right going to stand up to any kind of scrutiny?

Shut up and drink the kool-aid.



Come the revolution all of mankind will be equal with equal government-run healthcare, and earn government-mandated equal pay for our labors.  We will all drive priuses, eat tofu, and live in yurts.



What if you don't want to have government-run  healthcare, government mandated wages, to drive a prius, to eat tofu and to live in a yurt?



Come the revolution, you will do as you are damn well told.

So there's going to be a list.

And if you get on the list, you can't buy guns.

But nobody knows how you get on the list.

And nobody knows how you get off the list.

But there's a list.

And politicians are going to be in charge of the list.

Sounds like a plan.

Things got slightly awkward on that return flight, because one of the
TSA employees was a frequent Fox News viewer. "He knew I wasn't an
actual terrorist," Hayes explained, "but it didn't matter."



Hayes finally contacted Southwest on Tuesday, ahead of another
flight, to ask why he couldn't check in. A customer service supervisor
told him he wasn't going to be able to get a boarding pass before
arriving at the airport.



"So I asked if I was on the government's terrorist watchlist, and she said 'Yes.'"

It isn't.

The only reason it stands now is because SCOTUS doesn't recognize flying as a right (though "travel freely" is).

You are free to travel.  Provided you walk.



Be sure to use the crosswalk.  You are not free to cross the street anywhere else.

Does the no fly list work on people who own their own aircraft?   Or does being on a no fly list mean the US won't let you land at a port of entry?   I wonder how that would work with a US citizen who has a valid passport?

Not that there's a terribly large list of people who privately own aircraft capable of crossing the atlantic.

The idea of not letting people suspected of terrorism buy a gun sounds decent enough.  But in reality... just no.  Not enough oversight of this mythical list.  No set requirements to end up on it, no way to know you're on it, and no way to get your ass off it.  

The amount of people pushing to make this happen is just scary.  Just a big list, made by the government with no due process or oversight, that allows them to deny a constitutional right.  Scary shit.  Just sounds like the slippery slope from hell.  It isn't even a gun rights issue to me, it's the entire bill of rights and the government creating a way to just start denying people those rights as they see fit.  Nope, fuck that.  I would hope this would never stand up in court, but who knows anymore.

Exactly.  But if the libs want to use the no-fly list as an exclusion to the 2nd amendment, why should any other right be protected.  Why not just summarily execute anyone on the no fly list? Due process?  Freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures?  Cruel and unusual punishment?  Pfft.  A secret government list is all we need.  

Now watch liberal heads explode...

Simple inconvenience for him. If it saved one life, it's worth it.

You have to understand we are dealing with TERRORISM!  All bets are off, burn the constitution!  We must have safety--which the No-Fly List is totally providing!

Your son hasn't purchased any firearms, and the list has stopped him from committing any acts of terror.  IT WORKS!
