No Fly lists blocking babies

[thewayne]

The new (post 9/11) no-fly lists used by the airlines have been hugely expanded. The only problem is that they only list a person's name. No other identifying data. Because of this expansion, one year old babies are being tagged as suspicious.

Sigh.

Jesus Christ.... What next, denial of pregnant women because they might NAME their kid something that'd match the list? It's also scary how much that indicates the people in airline security aren't fucking THINKING...
