Immigration Officer Puts Wife on No-Fly List

A British immigration officer has been fired after admitting to adding his wife's name to a no-fly list to be rid of her. The officer's wife was unable to return from Pakistan for three years as a result. From the article: "The tampering went undetected until the immigration officer was selected for promotion and his wife's name was found on the suspects' list during a vetting inquiry."

And this is the perfect example of why the citizens should be protective of their rights and not allow themselves to get bullied by the TSA or any like-minded organizations. Give someone too much power without checks and balances and your entire life can be put on hold and leave you in an extremely dangerous situation. But hey, what's one woman's life in exchange for a security blanket for the masses?
