wanna know whats funny? i think this will lead to more profiling, and good luck to hispanics/etc

BUT shit tons of countries do this shit.. while i was living in panama, one night i went out to the clubs, forgot to carry my passport with me, and one the way back in a TAXI they stopped the taxi, id'ed everyone, and pulled me from the car and let everyone else go..

they knew i was american, yet, they were like if we dont see ur passport u r going to jail with us.. luckily my driver was working, i called him, he went to my house, got my passport, and brought it down.. the whole time i was sitting in the police pickup truck.lol

so this isnt such a big deal.. basically countries like panama require EVERYONE to have ID on them.. you could be walking, be a passenger, and a cop stops u, says show me your cedula(national id card), or passport, if u dont have one, enjoy jail for one night..

so america is lenient compared to a lot of other countries.. ive never ever been id'ed in usa only except when im driving, using my cc, or buying liquor.. never had a cop stop me on the road or in a taxi and ask for my id.
