TSA puts Reporter on no fly list for reporting on TSA

[MAGNES]

How's that for corruption, long ago there were reports of over a million people on the no fly list.

It's an older story but still good.

Formal calls for probe into reporter's name on no-fly list

A House representative said Thursday she is requesting an investigation after learning a CNN reporter was put on the federal no-fly list shortly after his investigation of the Transportation Security Administration.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas asked Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff about "a curious and interesting and troubling phenomenon" that CNN Investigative Correspondent Drew Griffin was added to the list.

"My question is, why would Drew Griffin's name come on the watch list, post-his investigation of TSA?" Jackson Lee said.

"What is the basis of this sudden recognition that Drew Griffin is a terrorist? Are we targeting people because of their critique or criticism?"

Everyone knows the answer but they're just too cowardly to actually say it. The answer is clear: you do something they don't like, they put you on the list. It has nothing to do with terrorism, it has everything to do with monitoring and controlling you. Simple as that.

That's so 2008. Now they just grab you at the TSA line and rendition you to guantonimo.

I will never understand why people post news that is so old without thoughtfully interconnecting it to something that makes it relevant.

GSUS is working hard towards winning the Moran award. I am here to help.

and the mayor of Chicago (Rahm) advocates that, since those million people are potential terrorists, they should lose their 2nd Amendment rights.

I boycotted flying years ago, and it doesnt effect my lifestyle one bit.

I think i will add my name to the list on my own. Can i submit an application or something?

The NeoCons are so 2001 and even before, so 1999, but very relevant.

I did connect it and even if I didn't it is worth putting up.

People not posting about the history of the NeoCons are morans,
people not posting about Sibel Edmonds are morans.

These forums need to go back to basics on all this.

Identifying who your master is building the police state and phoney wars is key topic.
