And that's going to work well because:
At least 99.99999999% of people who shop at CostCo are not terrorists.
At least 99.99999999% of people who belong to their kid's PTA are not terrorists.
At least 99.99999999% of people who have between 3 and 400 Facebook friends are not terrorists.
At least 99.99999999% of people who pay with MasterCard are not terrorists.
How do I know? Because at least 99.99999999% of people are not terrorists.
