   16 October 2012: One man’s tropical paradise is another man’s prison.   
   Imagine being “stuck” on Oahu. I’m sure you could think of worse   
   situations, but really stop and think about the following true and   
   evolving situation. You’re a “normal” 34 year-old guy, live on the U.S.   
   mainland in Gulfport, Mississippi, and recently married a woman who is a   
   lieutenant in the U.S. Navy stationed in Okinawa. You’re a citizen of   
   the United States and possess a valid U.S. issued passport. You’re not a   
   criminal and have no history of felony or misdemeanor convictions. In   
   fact, you recently passed a background check to own and carry a firearm   
   in Mississippi. You are, however, an outspoken patriot for the United   
   States Constitution.   
      
   You miss your bride of eight months, and decide to fly to Okinawa to   
   visit her. Because you are the “dependent” of an active duty member of   
   the U.S. military, you make arrangements to fly from San Francisco to   
   Okinawa on a military aircraft. You must still have a ticket, pass the   
   screening procedures similar or even more stringent than those flying on   
   normal commercial airlines. After the screening at the airport, you   
   board the plane and settle in for your flight, counting down the hours   
   until you are reunited with your wife.   
      
   The plane lands in Hawaii as scheduled for refueling and maintenance. It   
   is here, after re-boarding the aircraft, that two heavily-armed military   
   guards confront you and tell you that you must leave the plane. They   
   take you to a small room at the military base and advise you that you   
   are on the U.S. “No-Fly” list. You’re not under arrest, but you’re not   
   free to go until they decide what to do with you. You watch as your   
   plane, as well as your hopes of seeing your bride vanish into the air   
   while under the careful watch of two heavily armed military police   
   officials.   
      
   What’s going on?   
      
   As you sit in a small room, thoughts race through your mind. Why am I   
   here? It must be some mistake. I’ve committed no crime. Like any   
   “normal” American, You expect the matter to be resolved as there must be   
   some mix-up. Then, an official with the Customs and Border Enforcement   
   arrives and tells you that there is no mix-up. The official rattles off   
   your name, date of birth, social security number and complete   
   identifying information. It’s you alright, and you are officially on the   
   “No-Fly” list.   
      
   “How did you get on that plane?” asks the Customs and Border Enforcement   
   official. You reply that you had a normal ticket, passed through the   
   screening process and boarded the plane normally and without incident.   
   You are told that you should not have been permitted to fly. Again, you   
   are on the “No-Fly” list. You reply that there has to be a mistake, and   
   are met with the stern reply of the official: there is no mistake.   
      
   You then ask why you are on the “No-Fly” list and are told that you are   
   not permitted to know. At this point, they tell you that you are free to   
   go, but you cannot fly anywhere by orders of the United States   
   government. And there you are, in “paradise” but unable to leave.   
      
   Meet Wade Hicks, Jr   
      
   The above events took place on October 14, 2012. The victim in this case   
   is one Wade Hicks, Jr., 34, a U.S. citizen and resident of Gulfport,   
   Mississippi. I personally checked him out and verified his story. With   
   his permission, I conducted a “basic” background check of Mr. Hicks, Jr.   
   He has no criminal record. He is not a “wanted” man. By all normal and   
   visible accounts, Mr. Hicks, Jr. appears to be a law abiding member of   
   society. I did find, however, that he is an outspoken “patriot” and   
   openly critical of the NDAA. He is a former talk-show host of a small,   
   local radio station known for its “patriotic bias.” He is a member of   
   “Patriots for America” and the Mississippi Preparedness Project. He is   
   openly vocal about the erosion of our rights – and it certainly looks   
   like he has been proven correct. Is that now a crime worthy of being   
   denied the ability to travel freely within the United States?   
      
   Mr. Hicks detailed his plight on Monday’s edition of The Hagmann &   
   Hagmann Report to a shocked and disbelieving audience. How can this   
   happen in America? This is inter-STATE travel! There must be some   
   mistake! Has he done anything to let his elected representatives know?   
   The questions were many, and yes, Mr. Hicks, Jr. indeed pleaded for   
   assistance from his elected officials and anyone who would listen during   
   the last 36 hours. “I’ve got nothing to hide,” stated Mr. Hicks.   
   Nothing. “I feel like a prisoner in my own country, but no one will tell   
   me what I’ve done to be placed on the ‘No-Fly’ list. I’m not allowed to   
   know.”   
      
   Although I’m tempted to insert a reference to “Gilligan’s Island,” I   
   will refrain. If all of the facts presently known withstand more intense   
   scrutiny and further investigation, we have a very big problem in this   
   country. You might be next, and Hawaii might not be where you are   
   inexplicably left on your own.   
      
   I am following the fate of Mr. Hicks and continue to search for a   
   logical explanation. At this point, however, the only logical   
   explanation I’ve found is a very disturbing one. Perhaps this is how it   
   all starts. Stay tuned.

   If you love the Constitution and Bill of Rights, love the right to bear   
   arms, wants to live your life with as little government intrusions as   
   possible, you are a "Terrorist."
