The question is what is the criteria for no fly? Your rights have already been restricted. Therefore, you have been judged a danger. It logical to extrapolate that to the 2nd and I would have no problem theoretically
The question is who and what determines you are a danger. The government? What is the process and what is the criteria?

Is the free movement via an airplane a constitutionally protected right? I’m not aware of that. It’s the same as driving. A privilege, not a right.
We aren’t talking about convictions after you’ve had the opportunity to prove your innocence that place you there. The process as I understand it is you’ve shown a pattern of support or sympathy for known enemies of the US government. Now to what level that is, I don’t know. I don’t think some kid in El Paso posting about how he wants to be a Taliban fighter will be one or even take steps to become one. If he does, it is at that point he is placed there. I would think.
That doesn’t mean we should violate their constitutional rights based on accusations.
