Oh? For what reason?Today I learned that I was on a no fly list and was being monitored by the fbi...
The Bundy Ranch incident.

I am afraid I am not familiar.The Bundy Ranch incident
Due to government idiocy, there was a heavily armed stand off between civilians are law enforcement. I happened to be in the area on different business and was tagged as a target of interest by the FBI, probably because I was armed. I'm off the list now, but put simply I could fly domestically. But I could not leave the country. Even though it is a no fly list it also covers land borders and sea travel.I am afraid I am not familiar.
If you are on the no fly list for something you did, can you still cross state lines, by driving or walking?
--Carambaia then began donating a wide variety of books to the prison. That book club helped the inmates develop their analytical and communication skills. And out of that came a surprising insight: prison inmates read 9 times more books than civilians. So together with the National Justice Council, the Carambaia publishing house created a program called The Prison Reviews.
The publisher did something that had never been done before—they turned prisoners into book critics. Because the inmates were passionate readers, they were encouraged to write book reviews. They were given 30 days to read a book, then submit a review to be evaluated by a committee.
Each well-written review would shave four days off an inmate's sentence. It fuelled the inmates' passion for reading, it gave them dignity, it gave them hope and it showed the outside world that marginalized people have a voice.
As someone said, the Prison Reviews project allowed inmates to re-write their destiny.
