The thing that makes me angry is how "RealID" completely ignores the point-of-entry issue regarding illegals.

I mean, do they expect illegals to walk up to the DMV and try to get an ID? This is just like the gun argument. Criminals don't go to gun stores and patiently wait in line to buy a gun to kill people with. Plus the criminals caught by the instant background check aren't even arrested anyway.

Exactly. Criminals either buy guns from the black market or do not use guns at all. Illegals and terrorists will not get any ID because they will want to hide "under the radar." SO therefore the "Real ID" is a moot point from when the idea was conceptualized.
