I don't think any "free" nation should be compiling lists of people with opposing political ideas and labeling them as possible violent militia members or domestic terrorists.
But it isn't the nation that's compiling the lists, but rather the free citizens of that nation, exercising their rights. And what 'boundaries' are there, exactly, on the rights of free citizens to protect themselves? Certainly not the gathering and compiling of information. Unless you'd like the government to get more involved in our lives, tell us what we can and cannot know about each other?
