“Demanding papers at checkpoints...how very STASI of you Joe!
Try it. I guarantee you it will not last, nor will it end well”.
Imagine how many roads cross state lines. Plus, the manpower involved.
You’re right.
I know its not a state line town, but Powhatan, LA makes me think of small towns at the state lines whose “finest” would love more handcuff action.
With surveillance cameras, military drones, and other modern technology, it is a lot easier to monitor those roads than in the past.
You’re forgetting something: Unlike Republicans, when Democrats say they’re going to do something they explore every possible avenue to get it done and then they take action. There is very little dissension in their ranks. In fact, except for the light pushback Manchin and Sinema occasionally demonstrate, Dems are completely united in purpose. They play the long ball. They are patient. And they are immoral and amoral to the core. And that’s why they win and Republicans almost always lose. They will do this. And they will find the manpower to police border points between states if they are serious about getting it done.
Drones, robots and AI.
Interstate travelers will be restricted to the Interstate System.
Non-Interstate System roadways which cross state lines will controlled by monitored automatic gates, and locals will be able to obtain fobs if they show need. All crossings will logged.
The Feds will use eminent domain to seize a swath of territory on either side of where any Interstate crosses state lines. To cross state lines you will have to enter Federal land, disembark your vehicle while it's searched unless you have a special pass, and be subject to all vaccination protocols and TSA screening just as if you were getting on a plane.
If you can't take it on a plane, you won't be permitted to take it across state lines.
