Maybe we should go back to the old Western. "Kill em all, and let God sort em out!" :>) The history of that phrase goes back to wooden sailing warships. In Nam the phrase was... " Good guys... bad guys! Who knows the difference? Kill em all, and let God sort em out" The movie platoon used a phrase that was well known in my outfit. "Death! What do you know about death?"

The American Civil Liberties Union has sued to find out how the government compiles its secret "no fly" lists used to stop people from boarding planes. The group wants to know how people like peace activists from San Francisco or a Wisconsin nun on her way to an antiwar "teach-in" have apparently ended up on watch lists. Because they belong there? What do you call those clowns who tore up Seattle? There's a Law Of The Universe that says a nun can't qualify? How about nunship or non-nunship is irrelevant?
