53. I remember that guy...
His fellow Marines refused to continue home to see their families without him. They waited for over an hour for him to be cleared before they continued on home.

John Shaw = 2,947 living in America with that name...
Michelle Green = 1,241
David Nelson = 5,650
T. Kennedy = 64 + 122 + 3 + 116 + 1,373 + etc

Some others on the list from the wiki...
Daniel Brown = 7,816 (The Marine we are discussing)
Robert Johnson = 33,853
Sam Adams = 1,255
John Lewis = 9,685

So we have 8 names on a list who roughly equate to over 64,000 Americans. It would be interesting to know how many Americans are effected by this list? If 8 = 64,000 what does almost 1 million equal?

"In October 2008, the Washington Post reported that Maryland State Police classified 53 nonviolent political activists as terrorists, and entered their names and personal information into state and federal databases, with labels indicating that they were terror suspects. The protest groups were also entered as terrorist organizations. During a hearing, it was revealed that these individuals and organizations had been placed in the databases because of a surveillance operation that targeted opponents of the death penalty and the Iraq war."
