Marshals: Innocent People Placed On 'Watch List' To Meet Quota
The Denver Channel ^ | 21 Jun, 2016

Posted on 06/24/2016 7:50:11 AM PDT by MtnClimber

You could be on a secret government database or watch list for simply taking a picture on an airplane. Some federal air marshals say they're reporting your actions to meet a quota, even though some top officials deny it. The air marshals, whose identities are being concealed, told 7NEWS that they're required to submit at least one report a month. If they don't, there's no raise, no bonus, no awards and no special assignments.

"Innocent passengers are being entered into an international intelligence database as suspicious persons, acting in a suspicious manner on an aircraft ... and they did nothing wrong," said one federal air marshal.

These unknowing passengers who are doing nothing wrong are landing in a secret government document called a Surveillance Detection Report, or SDR. Air marshals told 7NEWS that managers in Las Vegas created and continue to maintain this potentially dangerous quota system.

I heard that there are about 2.5 million people on this list.

Marxists like quotas.

Maybe Clinton would therefore qualify in the eyes of TSA?

Sadly, the affinity for outrageously anti-Constitutional measures like a “no-fly list” spreads far beyond the Marxist camp.

Zer0 and Holder were running guns to drug cartels. That should surely qualify.

Trump needs to pay attention to this story when talking about taking away guns.

Right wing christians are probably on that list.

Productivity quotas have really gotten out of hand. No wonder millions are “out” of work. Quotas are so bad where I work, nobody has time to clean up or fix inventory. It’s a filthy mess. Nobody sweeps, if product falls on the floor, it’s left there. Nothing is in order. Nobody cares.

I had a colleague, who has since retired, who was on the no-fly list from the day it was implemented. He was never able to get off the list but I believe he was given a document of some sort that eventually allowed him to fly.

They can put anyone they want on that list. If no fly-no buy passes I wonder how long before many of us Freepers suddenly find ourselves on the No Fly list.

So, not only are these people stigmatized and horribly inconvenienced when they try to fly the next time, but the entire Dem Party (and many RINOs) want to deny them their 2nd Amendment rights because of this.

Anyone who sits this election out, who allows Hillary and any of her henchmen to be elected, is as guilty of this impending travesty of justice as the Dems (and is also a blithering idiot).

With Lois Lerner in charge it won’t take MINUTES for FReepers to be on the list. Count on it. One could hope Trump would put every poster at Huff PO and DU on it.

The enemy’s position is taking shape.

When cash is eliminated, you will be able to purchase food and water only with the government’s permission.

When the shift is made to driverless cars, you will be able to go only where the government says you can.

With mandatory employment checks (instituted for the purpose of denying employment to illegal aliens) you will not be able to obtain employment without the government’s permission.

Once you are on this list, you won’t be able to get on an airplane or buy the means to defend yourself. Will you flee the country? Where to, and why would they let you in? Perhaps more pertinently, how? Not in your driverless car, and not on a plane.

Will we see whites imitating runaway black slaves, followin’ the drinkin’ gourd as they walk to Canada?

It always seemed more likely to me that computers would lead to dystopia than utopia. For one thing, dystopias can exist, while utopias cannot.

It seems to me that I feel a horrid tyranny tightening its grip on my throat.
