Where’s the fun in that?

The thing that is getting my goat is the knee jerk reaction against the backlash in almost every thread the last couple of days. Nobody I know of has any issue with people suspected of a crime being asked for ID. My problem strictly relates to the whole having brown skin while in public serving as probable cause for an ID check aspect.

Lets try again…

If that is your only problem with the law, rejoice, the law specifically forbids an ID check on someone without them being suspected of a crime (other than entering the country illegally). The law specifically calls for an ID check when an individual commits or is suspected of committing a crime.
Here’s the bill if you’d like to actually read it.
