More ignorance.

1. If you get an international driver’s license, you can rent a car and drive in the US as a foreigner.

2. An immigrant can obtain a driver’s license in the US and then overstay their visa. Overstays of visa are one of the most common ways for someone to be an illegal immigrant.

Buck, when you’re wrong, your response is generally not to actually bother to research, to investigate, or educate yourself, it’s generally— as you just did— to claim more things that are untrue. I have no idea why you do so. It makes you seem a liar even when you’re not intentionally lying. I personally think that your habit of willful ignorance is tantamount to lying anyway.


In the end, you think that the DHS is wrong, but don’t like how I described the wrong.

No. You lied in how you described it. It’s not that I don’t like it— it’s that what you said is factually untrue, and you’ve followed it up with a serious of other factual untruths, from either ignorance or intention.

Things that you have said that are not true:

1. This policy treats Israel the same as Hamas, and Israelis the same as members of Hamas.

2. An Israeli citizen who was arrested for a crime would be subject to this policy.

3. The Arizona documentation law applied only to those who had committed a crime.

4. An undocumented person in the US would not have a driver’s license.

If they provided an out of country DL, as I would, the office would also be able to question the status, because that would be reasonable.

I’d like to point that this is admitting that you were wrong when you said that the officer could only check their status if they had committed a crime. Do you realize that?
