Sincere question:
There are laws which require showing identification to LEOS on demand, but are there any laws which require anyone, citizen or not, to carry identification on their person as they go about their public day? Essentially, a driver's license is a dubious certificate of vehicular competency which has morphed into government issued personal identification, and the (in these days) inessential vehicle registration slip is now a double for place of owner's residence. Same with social security numbers, which originally weren't supposed to be used for identification purposes, but are now essential for everything from employment to applying for a loan to receiving health care.

But can they just ask anyone walking down the street in California for ID just based upon their inquisitiveness?...they can, but under that premise, you are not beholden to answer or produce any ID. Back when I still had a running business with daily or weekly customers, I started refusing to accept out of state drivers license from oregon mostly, as soon as I discovered they were giving them to illegals for the purpose of driving. If they gave me a credit card or tried to use a check to buy or deposit money on goods, I told them no go on Oregon license as ID. And it happened many times too. One guy had Oregon plates on his car that read "immgrnt" or something close to that, and bought a restaurant downtown. |
