Yes folks, the SUPPOSED VIOLATION OF Constitutional rights by ONE FUCKED UP UNELECTED JUDGE MAY KILL US!!!
The Hill ^ | 09/05/19 | Zack Budryk
The federal government has violated the rights of more than 1 million people by placing them on a watchlist of “known or suspected terrorists,” a federal judge ruled Wednesday.
The plaintiffs, 23 U.S. citizens, argued, with the backing of the Council on American Islamic Relations, that they were wrongly placed on the list, causing “a range of adverse consequences without a constitutionally adequate remedy.”
The plaintiffs, ruled U.S. District Judge Anthony Trenga, “have constitutionally protected liberty interests that are implicated by their inclusion” on the list, and the Department of Homeland Security process by which people listed on the watchlist can challenge their inclusion “is not constitutionally adequate to protect those liberty interests.”
Trenga, a George W. Bush appointee, added “there is no evidence, or contention, that any of these plaintiffs satisfy the definition of a ’known terrorist’.” While Trenga’s ruling grants summary judgment to the plaintiffs, it directs both sides to file supplemental briefings on appropriate remedies before he rules further.

Not really. I point to SanFransisco putting the NRA on a terrorist watch list. So say that go's nation wide and there you are with your "I'm The NRA" bumper sticker on your car. Basically you staring you are a terrorist. Your neighbor hates you because he mows his yard to two inches and you now yours to 1. He reports you. The Feds look at your social media history and finds your posts on USMB and BANG! They got ya! No due process because you are a self admitted terrorist. So no, "watch lists" are not good at all. This country has a read bad history with "lists".
Damn fine post! Well done!
It's that easy. No one should be okay with ANY lists.
