Granny Can Sue U.S. for Calling Her a Terrorist

A Texas grandmother can push ahead with her emotional-distress complaint alleging that a Navy recruiter added her name to Homeland Security’s terrorist watch list, a federal judge ruled.

  • A d v e r t i s e m e n t

In a pro se federal lawsuit filed in October 2010, Vivian Chisholm asked the Southern District of Texas to declare “that she is not a terrorist” and remove her name from Homeland Security’s terrorist watch list.

The complaint primarily attributes Chisholm’s distress to the actions of Humble, Texas-based recruiter Petty Officer Lancelot Coley, but Coley is not named as a defendant.

She claimed her granddaughter, Maigan Brewer, joined the Navy’s Delayed Entry Program in high school but requested an entry-level separation from the program five months later, as was her right to do.

In response to the student’s request for the separation, Petty Officer Coley yelled “vulgar remarks” at Brewer, according to the complaint. He allegedly threatened to alter Brewer’s Social Security card to limit where she could work, arrest her for breach of government contract and report her as AWOL.

  1. Soon we’ll all be on the list, and only total supplication to the banker state will merit the favor of removal

  2. Were with ya granny, go get um!

  3. I speak my mind and I’m not afraid to speak my mind and people mock and hate me because of me being a free thinker and not being a dumbed down brainwashed conformist like the rest of society due to government’s brainwashing of the population.
    I’m an activist that supports free speech and all rights and freedoms for all humans and animals. I support freedom for all no matter if they are religious or not (Atheist).

    I’ve been intimidated and threatened with death by both the government and by the Illuminati in person and online because I speak my mind and refuse to conform and submit to the evil Satanic New World Order and I refuse to be the slave of the Illuminati or the government.

    I am awake. Are you?

  4. Get ‘em Granny…

  5. How does a recruiter have the ability to name someone to a terrorist watch list?
    How come such a list does not have an expiration?

    • It isn’t exactly clear that she was actually added. The article states only that he convinced her that she had been added

    • For that matter, why would any individual have a right to add any other individual to a terrorist watch list? For that matter, why does such a list even exist? It is simply more affrontery to a free society

  6. Demented buffoons run the show

  7. go for the jugular, granny
