US No Fly List bans 47,000 passengers from the skies

  • 10 years ago
Thousands of people are prohibited from flying in, to, or from the United States because they are considered to be suspicious. Many are not even aware that they are on such a list. This list is not public, but it does have a pattern; in most cases, the list contains names that sound Muslim. In 2001, there were 16 names on the No Fly List, in 2013, according to 'The Intercept' leaks, 47,000 people are prohibited from flying, even though many feel the measure is unconstitutional.
