I am willing to be ID'd from time to time if it will help stop illegal immigration. I have nothing to hide.

that would be great, but that isnt what the law says. Identification is not proof of immigration status.

C'mon man, where's your green card? You say you're a citizen, you better have a green card.

That is an interesting evasion. So if you are driving without a license and a policeman asks to see your license, you just plead the fifth and the policeman goes away?

Yes, but if you don't say it in a flat Midwestern drawl--if you have any sort of accent--the cop will assume you're an illegal. Because that's the mental capacity of cops.

What does a licence have to do with the new law? what does driving wthout a licence have to do with the new law?

The cop's assumption won't matter if you have valid I.D. he can't do anything to you.

Citizens don't have green cards but a green card is proof that you are here legally.

If a valid citzen I.D. and/or green card is not proof that you are in this country legally, then I don't know what is.
