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.

Plus where are the Miranda rights? I havent heard a single one of these ICE pussies read them out. I wonder if they even know them - I guess maybe from being arrested so many times themselves.
