Air Marshals Place Innocents on Secret Watch List
"[These] unknowing passengers who are doing nothing wrong are landing in a secret government document called a Surveillance Detection Report, or SDR." Reports a Denver Colorado TV station news report on incident reporting system use by the US Air Marshall Service.
When I was in college during an management studies class we were told that if you don't give people enough work to do that they either drag tasks out to use the available time or they lie about what they are really doing with their time (i.e. reporting cold calls that they didn't actually make & etc).
This would be funny in a "I told ya so!" kind of way were it not for the estimated 200,000 or so Americans who are on the feds "no fly" or "close scrutiny" watch lists. Imagine how fookin' funny they find all this?
