How long does an individual have to prove they're a citizen? Can an officer just walk up to someone and detain them because they don't have proof of citizenship in their hands? As soon as ID is required at all times, we're one short step away from a police state, IMO.
Maybe they should start going after the employers who look for illegal immigrants to pay low wages under the table, instead of going after the immigrants themselves. Of course, then you get the complaints from those who don't want to pay the extra costs that would be passed on to consumers. Maybe this new law is just intended to make it look like they're doing something while maintaining the status quo.
