I travel internationally a decent amount and every time I have my passport checked I get a small hassle. After the second time I asked why and was told that someone with the same name lost their passport (doesn't seem to justify the amount of attention I get).
I always feel like I'm one step from being on some "list" myself. This has been going on for years and occasionally they really grill me. The only legal issues I've ever had were speeding tickets and not even one of those in 10 years.
Also amusing/disturbing, CNN has this issue on their front page poll. 89% of respondants said people on the watch list should NOT be able to buy guns.
IMO Anyone supporting arbitrary, HIDDEN lists that limit rights is not thinking clearly.
