I heard a caller tell Rush Limbaugh that he was a Green Card holder and that when he received his card he also received a packet of information which contained instructions for him to have his Card with him at all times.
So, my question is: Isn't the Obama administration guilty of Nazi like tactics also?
I carried my green card for years until I naturalized.
It is “papers”. I know, I carried one.
As an example, police everyday come into "lawful contact" with witnesses and victims of crimes. What the law says, is after lawful contact has been established, the police may ask the "suspect" (for lack of a better word) to evidence of his legal residency or citizenship, if the LEO has a reasonable suspicion that the person they've lawfully contacted is in the country illegally.
So, the police under this law may also ask for the passengers of a car that they've stopped to provide proof of residency or citizenship, even though it's VERY difficult for a passenger to be a suspect in a moving violation.
Kobach was speaking as a man running for office, not rending an accurate characterization of the law as a law professor.
It's not ambiguous at all.
ALL Permanent Residents are required to carry their "Green Card."
All Nonresident aliens are required to carry their Passport with a valid US Visa.
Green Card holders are Told about that requirement when the document is issued.
Visa holders are told about the requirement when they enter the US.
I went to see Gladys Knight the other evening and they refused to let me into the theater until I had shown the authorities there my papers (a/k/a my ticket) and until after the ticket had been successfully scanned for authenticity. (What a bunch of crybaby hustlers—what an insult that they believe that a thinking American person with any dignity and intestinal fortitude would be bullied and intimidated to be coped by their line of crap!).
I demeaned nothing. I stated that if one thing he says is noteworthy, so are all of them.
You are making an extreme leap to go from someone agreeing that showing green cards is akin to showing papers, to then say that everything should be immoratlized.
I did not address the content of what Limbaugh said, only the
fact that someone thinks his every utterance is noteworthy.
You dont like Rush because other people do?
I like him just fine, I'm just not a cheerleader
who will sit around gushing over his every word.
Why are you so obsessed with what other people like?
Am I?
But you forgot one category...ALL citizens of the US must carry "what?" to prove they're a citizen?
Works for me.
I could carry my Nexus Card. That would work.
I’m taking it out now.
Thanks!
Look it...
Folks...
Ask the Democrats why they INSIST on “background checks” for patriotic Americans to exercise their CONSTITUTIONAL right to obtain and bear arms.
Most of the time I have been the passenger in a car at night and the driver has been pulled over for an infraction, I've seen them collect up ALL licenses/identity to run them (for outstanding warrants, etc.).
It is foolish to believe that this isn't already going on in police departments (asking for "papers" regardless of ethnicity).
Let not your heart be...wait. Never mind.
US Citizens are not a category of NON-Citizen.
As you know, US Citizens are not required to carry proof of Citizenship unless they are returning to the US from another country.
You demeaned it when you compared a point made in the show to a commercial.
You did address his content. You asked if we should discuss his commercials because we were discussing the content of his show. By the way, what is wrong with discussing this particular item from his show?
Who is being a cheerleader gushing on his every word? Some people on this board are disagreeing with his statement (that was actually made by a caller) and others are agreeing with it for reasons other than “Rush said it.”
And when you ask someone why they chose a topic, it shows you are more interested in what that person likes than either leaving or addressing the topic.
They also need to show the green card when they buy firearms from a licensed dealer. Those are sold only to citizens and green card holders.
You’re a great American.
I guess, for me, the real issue is not what do the illegals have to carry to prove they’re here legally...they actually have papers, green card, visa, etc. But rather what do American citizens have to carry to prove they’re not illegals.
Will a voter ID do, a driver’s license, what about a driver’s license from another state (since there are lots of tourists in Arizona.) We’ve already established the gov’t says don’t carry your SS card with you. Shall we all get a Passport and make sure we carry it when we go to Arizona?
It’s a slippery slope! One administration might mean it for good, but it could quickly be turned to be used for bad.
Ohhhkay.
You did address his content.
Alllrighty then.
Who is being a cheerleader gushing on his every word?
He spoke 'em, you read 'em and comment. Do you do the same for everyone?
Some people on this board are disagreeing with his statement
Thanks for pointing that out.
