People on the Terrorist Watch List
Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez, D-CA
"I know in our particular case they basically did a massive data dump and said 'Ok anybody that’s got a nexus to terrorism, let’s make sure they get on the list,'" Cloonan explains. "And once that train left the station, or once that bullet went down range. There was no calling it back. And that is where we are."
The person who oversaw the project is Donna Bucella, who has run the FBI’s Terrorist Screening Center since it began operations in 2003. Her group is responsible for evaluating the information submitted by the various intelligence agencies and actually compiling the list.
Asked if she is confident that the list is complete and accurate, Bucella says, "It's like painting a bridge. Once you finish one end, you gotta come back. So we endeavor to get the list as current and accurate and thorough as possible."

If everyone found a way to use words like "bomb", "plutonium", "assassinate", and "POTUS" in their telephone conversations and made it a habit of ending each conversation with "Allah hw'ackba" or "Allah is Great", then we could maybe get onto the list. And it doesn't matter if we all get onto the list. What is important is that enough people of good reputation make it onto the list. What would it do to the overall reliability of the list?

The only question is "How many Post at ATS are required before you are put on the list?".
I still only get called out of the airport security line when I'm on a one way ticket - usually for last minute travel without a return date decided. All I do is smile and say thank you and they speed me through the extra checkpoint.
I know a guy who was considered a terrorist at one time who never has problems flying, so I can only conclude that the list is either not real or those doing the list don't have a clue. BTW - The guy I know was convicted and sent to prison for most of his life for bombing government buildings a few decades ago (a 60's radical changed by time -nearly 70 now )- they don't bother him at all & yes the FBI knows him well.
