I think we should give all illegal aliens automatic citizenship if they can pass their driving test. /s

Henceforth I will no longer accept a New York State license as proof of identity.

Being from New York, this really upsets me since many of the 9/11 highjackers got drivers licenses and IDs from multiple states with no proof of legal status.

Peter, I think that is a GREAT idea. IDs given under these circumstances are meaningless.

It'll be a real pain for those of my customers who want to use checks - I just won't accept them without a VALID form of identification and, obviously, a New York state license or ID will not be a valid form of ID.

Thank you, mewzilla.

I did do a search under the NY Post headline and “NY Governor,” but obviously failed to use the Putz’ last name.

Still...the other thread was posted in the late morning; I suspect lots of folks were busy earning a living at that time and may not have heard the news, so it’s not all bad.

Thanks again,
Regards,
