TS Radio Network: You might be a domestic terrorist...With John Leckrone

Join John Leckrone and Marti Oakley as we take a look at the ballooning lists of "suspected domestic terrorists". 

Homeland Security and other infamous federal agencies are busy adding names to various watchlists.  The threshhold for being added to one or more of these lists is low.  Have a different opinion than the one the government is promoting?  You might be a domestic terrorist.  When flawed or unreliable information makes its way into the watchlist database, it tends to stay there.

Agencies have paid far greater attention to putting people on watchlists than to reviewing or purging of erroneous or outdated information. In short, there is every incentive to place individuals on a watchlist, but little incentive to clear them.

Join us as we discuss how the government is creating lists of suspects and yet never seems to be able to find any actual terrorists until after the fact.
