We think the redress system is definitely something you should pursue for the reasons you've heard from No Fly List Kids, but we're urging evidence-based policy-making. So far, the only evidence we've seen is evidence of harm. There is no real evidence that the no-fly list works.
In 2001 or 2002, there were different considerations at play. Experiments, attempts at increasing airline security in particular, were necessary. There's no reason to continue to take those assumptions as true in the face of experience and in the face of other options.
We haven't done the research. We're not here with answers. We're simply saying that, in looking at the evidence, we don't see how the benefit outweighs the harm.
