Reply #17: i carry a driver's license and/or passport

[pitohui]

not sure if i have a birth cert i'm pretty old but if you carry a driver's license you carry everything you need for an identify thief to truly screw up yr life and get you thrown in prison for serious crimes so i'm not sure what you're bitching about

i've known many people get in trouble because of an ID thief's actions and it was ALWAYS because of a driver's license, not a birth cert

if you don't know what you're talking abt, maybe stop talking a minute

there are several states where you must always carry ID with you, NEVADA and "las vegas" where supposedly "what happens in vegas stays in vegas" has had the same law for my entire lifetime and i'm freaking old and you're not complaining about that

there is nothing wrong w. asking people to prove that they're who they claim to be and the world won't end if people have to prove they're who they claim they are

if you carry a driver's license you have nothing to bitch about, you HAVE been assimilated, the guy who steals your driver's license, then wrecks your car and gets arrested in your name -- you ARE going to prison for what he did, whereas a birth cert i've never heard of it happening with THAT piece of paper

you're chasing after the shiny distraction and it's just silly
