Texas on the list???? Geezz

[DTogo]

But of course these enhanced drivers licenses will not be required to vote...

Imagine if they were all wrapped in aluminum foil? The jackboots would walk through the crowd and be stumped.

Sadly, this is but one of many initiatives Hussein and his high-tech Islamo-Stalinists are contemplating.

This is not the system I swore to defend and protect. We need a U.S. Franco to sweep away the liberal fascist vermin and their s**t.

[Kimmers]

This is for our own good, to protect us from all things evil.......... and the sheeple will think it is a good idea....

This scares the you know what out of me....

I gotta wonder how stupid thinks it’s easier to make sure the person holding the license is the person the license belongs to. Unless there’s a matching chip embedded in the person, there’s no way to ensure the right person has the right license. Napolitano is a dummie..........

[randog]

Enhanced driver's licenses have built-in radio chips providing an identifying number or information that can be accessed by a remote reading unit while the license is inside a wallet or purse.

What they're trying to say is that they can read your driver's license without your permission. They could just use bar codes like some states already do, but then they'd have to ask the license owner permission to read their card. Protest and the state will give you their pat answer, "well, don't get one then". This will last as long as it takes for someone to hack the RFIDs.

Oh yes way.

Compile attendance lists at anti-government rallies? You Betcha. They will do this. They have to have full control. No fight. No guns. No freedom. No jobs.

And they accuse the right of being the “no” party?

[silverleaf]

as long as they become required to cast a vote- I’m in

If not, stuff them

[holyscroller]

In Washington State, not only does the enhanced lkicense have the radio antella, your photo is also one of the new biometic ID varieties. Anybody know any ways to render them useless?

[upchuck]

Damn RFID chips... always getting burned up and becoming non-functional. Damn!

[dynachrome]

Tape the license to some one elses vehicle. Take the hit on the fine if caught driving without one. “oops it must have fallen out of my wallet/purse, officer.”

Pay for a new one (expensive, I know) Repeat often enuff to mess with the thought police.

FROM Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RFID

In 2006, RFID tags were included in new US passports. The US produced 10 million passports in 2005, and it has been estimated that 13 million will be produced in 2006. The chips will store the same information that is printed within the passport and will also include a digital picture of the owner. The US State Department initially stated the chips could only be read from a distance of 10 cm (4 in), but after widespread criticism and a clear demonstration that special equipment can read the test passports from 10 meters (33 ft) away, the passports were designed to incorporate a thin metal lining to make it more difficult for unauthorized readers to "skim" information when the passport is closed. (My comments: Except government "authorized" scanners.)

Thirty-three (33) feet is just about the distance from the center line of a roadway to the curb. I would suppose that means with slight modifications, these new RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) tags could be scanned from any vehicle parked or moving or a stationary "receiver" at the side of any roadway and with a bit of tweaking from the side of any HIGHWAY. That way, the movement of anyone carrying a driver's license could be REMOTELY tracked.

Just because it is on your license does not mean that you have to carry it everywhere you go.

If you happen to go to a rally, leave your license in your car. Scan the crowd all you want, but if nothing shows. What or who went to the rally.

[NeoConfederate]

Privacy advocates are issuing warnings about a new radio chip plan that ultimately could provide electronic identification for every adult in the U.S. and allow agents to compile attendance lists at anti-government rallies simply by walking through the assembly. I'll have to remember not to bring my DL to those kinds of events.

[Dahoser]

Don’t worry, all those people who have their panties in a knot over intercepting enemy communications will be leading the charge against this. Any minute now. Coming right up. Just another second before they begin...

[rawcatslyentist]

Get us dependent on the chip for all fiduciary transactions. Strictly for tax and national security purposes only. sleeeeeeeep.....

Calamity and Crisis !!!!!!! the cards chips fail. EMP hackers etc...

Success!!!! the implant chip is fail proof! ....... sleeeeeeeeeep.....
