chevysoldier Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 PHOENIX — The sheriff of Arizona's most populous county is making room in a vast outdoor jail and determined to round up illegal immigrants to fill it. Police from the U.S.-Mexico border to the Grand Canyon are getting last-minute training. And protests and marches are planned throughout Phoenix.Arizona's new immigration law takes effect Thursday, creating a potentially volatile mix of police, illegal immigrants and thousands of activists, many planning to show up without identification as a show of solidarity.At least one group plans to block access to federal offices, daring officers to ask them their immigration status.http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38436995/ns/us_news-immigration_a_nation_divided/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhallam85 Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 I cant believe there are people out there that support illegal immigrants, that blows my mind. If I was asked to show proof of citizenship, I would have no problem at all. Whats one more document to hand over to the police from the license and registration that were all use to.

Tom018 Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 I read a good book recently. It was called 'Ted, White, and Blue" by Ted Nuegent. He has a chapter on immigration. He refuses to call them illegal alieans, he calls them what they are, Criminal aliens. They have violated a law of the land, yet otehrs protect them. He also says that these city councilmen in these so calle sanctuary cities should be thrown in jail for aiding and abeding (sp) these criminal alieans. I agree. THEY HVAVE BROKEN THE LAW PEOPLE, wake up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus if they block doors, isn't that a fire hazard to people already inside? They should be forced to move just on that premise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should be forced to move just on that premise I was listening to the radio this morning and that is exactly what the Sheriff said he will do. They have been clearing jail cells and making room to detain everyone. Should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Identification isn't necessary unless operating a motor vehicle. All you're required to give them is your first name and date of birth (or is it your address?). Anyway' date=' photo identification isn't a requirement in the state of Ohio for walking down the street. No proof of anything is required.[/quote']http://flexyourrights.org/faq - ID section When do I have to show police my ID? This is a tricky issue. As a general principle, citizens who are minding their own business are not obligated to "show their papers" to police. In fact, there is no law requiring citizens to carry identification of any kind. Nonetheless, carrying an ID is generally required if you’re driving a vehicle or a passenger on a commercial airline. These requirements have been upheld on the premise that individuals who prefer not to carry ID can choose not to drive or fly.From here, ID laws only get more complicated. In Hiibel v. Sixth Judicial District Court of Nevada, the Supreme Court upheld state laws requiring citizens to disclose their identity to police when officers have reasonable suspicion to believe criminal activity may be taking place. Commonly known as "stop-and-identify" statutes, these laws permit police to arrest criminal suspects who refuse to identify themselves. As of 2008, 24 states had stop-and-identify laws. Regardless of your state's law, keep in mind that police can never compel you to identify yourself without reasonable suspicion to believe you're involved in criminal activity. But how can you tell if an officer asking you to identify yourself has reasonable suspicion? Remember, police need reasonable suspicion to detain you. One way to tell if they have reasonable suspicion is to determine if you're free to go. You could do this by saying "Excuse me officer. Are you detaining me, or am I free to go?" If the officer says you’re free to go, leave immediately and refrain from answering any additional questions. If you're detained, you'll have to decide whether withholding your identity is worth the possibility of arrest or a prolonged detention. In cases of mistaken identity, revealing who you are might help to resolve the situation quickly. On the other hand, if you're on parole in California, for example, revealing your identity could lead to a legal search. Knowing your state's laws can help you make the best choice. Keep in mind that the officer's decision to detain you will not always hold up in court. Reasonable suspicion is a vague evidentiary standard, which lends itself to mistakes on the officer's part. If you're searched or arrested following an officer's ID request, always contact an attorney to discuss the incident and explore your legal options.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmyE6_b_xJY&feature=player_embedded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Sure. I'm required to tell them my first name' date=' but no identification is necessary. It is not illegal to not carry identification with you. If I don't have it, and they ask for it, and I'm not obligated to carry it... See what I'm getting at?[/quote']yeah, but they will still arrest you on some other bullshit like obstruction or whatever they make up to make themselves look good.

This probably isn't a problem for white people, but could be a problem for legal immigrants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
