I'm getting rather worried.

The USA now apparently has a 80,000 person "no-fly" list.

If Jim Moore is to be believed, he's on the list. Possibly because he wrote a book critical of the Bush administration.

There is no way to determine how you got on the list. There is no way you can get yourself off the list. If you are on the list, you have become a second class citizen with no appeal.

80,000 people are on this list.

A President who holds that congress and the courts can place no restrictions on his acts, so long as he claims they are in defence of the nation. A President above the law.

Oh, and a prominant democractic senator was also on the list:

I don't trust the American government. Should Canada start plans to defend itself, without assuming American defensive aid? It's crazy, I know... ~_~
