Hey how about avoiding this and you know actually SECURING THE FRIGGIN BORDERS?
secure the borders and secure the infrastructure ----- walk and chew gum at the same time.
I would like to see anyone else with an honest guestimate of just how much percentage wise the securing of the borders would serve? I seriously doubt we could achieve even 80% blockage.
So, to help with the internal security of this nation, I would have no problem with an id card that proves your identity. I don't care if it is a retinal scan, finger prints, or DNA record. To make the leap that this would reduce us to the level of Nazi Germany is ludicrous.
