Illegals don't have to show an ID....most times the officer doesn't want to stir up a hornets next.....so why should legal American citizens have to provide ID?
Excellent point -- illegals get a pass (even at the voting booth!!) while law-abiding Americans pay the price (financially and otherwise).
It is time that all people present ID when asked to do so.
The act of requesting ID shouldn't be the debate (imho). What should be is the context in which it is asked.
That is to say I think it is reasonable to stop you out in public and request ID where I would find it unreasonable to just knock on doors and request it. I find a clear line there.
