IMO, if you are in a foreign country, yes you need your papers on you at all times. I was in South Africa and did not have my paperwork on me, I spent the night in jail until the company i was working for down there got me out. I was majorly inconvenienced, but I understood and agreed with their policies.
bingo, carrying appropriate ID at all times should be law. its funny to see all the dumb excuses people come up with for why this isnt right.
Those People... LOL,,,, Seriously it will not work without targeting a race. I know an Irish person that is illegal and working under table for years….
is it wrong to target a specific race when the vast majority of illegal immigrants are hispanic?
its not like you would even be in this situation unless you commited a crime. If your a hispanic citizen and commit a crime, and dont have a license, you just have to deal with it. shouldnt have commited a crime in the first place
illegals arent citizens so i dont think we need to provide them with any kind of rights. shooting american citizens is complicated. plus, what if the person presented fake ID when they worked for the American? too complicated. lets just shoot the illegal.
I realize you think the constitution is toilet paper, but it disagrees with you on giving non-citizens rights.

Do you want Hispanic out or illegals out? I not Hispanic but it's funny that it is always the Hispanic first to be on the chopping block.... Do Puerto Rican make you upset too?

puerto ricans are not illegal immigrants.
You are correct there are illegals here from all over the world but unfortunately most know how to stay under the radar and not call attention to themselves unlike many of the hispanics from central america...
Most towns/cities have vagrancy laws that state that if you dont have ID you can be detained until your identity can be established. The problem is that ALOT of places dont enforce these rules.
In order to get a NJ DL you need a US Birth Cert, US Passport, Visa, or other type of legal immigration documentation.

But having to carry ID at all times in your own country, is as un-American is you can get. "Papers please".
It's not like the US has never deported a citizen before due to lazy ICE agents, and now the local cops get to do it too. That's going to turn out well.
Problem is then, that vagrancy laws are unconstitutional. Most give police the power to stop and ask ANYONE who they are where they live and what they are doing wherever they currently are. Only recently have some cities start to repeal them. New Jersey, stop idling over old law - The Star-Ledger Editorial Page
If you are being pulled over by the cops for committing a crime (or failure to register or expired inspections, whatever) all the vagrancy stuff flies out the window and your on the hook to provide proof od who you are.

So what is your solution as well as Michigan Man, as far as deporting these people back to their native countries without stepping on the 4th amendment?
Or shall we just let illegals run amok all over the country??
To me there is a huge difference between a non citizen here legally and one here illegally
