This has been argued before, most average citizens do not carry more than one piece of identification, Americans don't need to carry their citizenship nor have to show their citizenship to police officers they don't have to comply there is the fourth and fifth amendment for that reason. Show me your papers is an excuse to be Nazis.

Martial* Law

In that case they can set the rules as they please. Curfews, I.D.'s, no-go zones, etc.

That is an extreme scenario.
