In a small town, it's rather silly. Everyone knows everything about you, and your name is the first thing. However, in a city where you don't have that level of recognition, I see no problem with asking for identification.
The picture is funny though, true, but funny
after all .. I use the same IDs when I go to make purchases for the barn, for parties/picnics .. to pay bills .. when I check out at the checkout line .. etc ..
.The REAL ID Act of 2005 was an Act of Congress that made certain modifications in the US federal law regarding security, authentication, and insurance procedures standards concerning driver’s licenses and ID cards (identification cards). The law also treated certain immigration issues having to do with terrorism. What were the purposes of this act, though? The act was concerned with establishing and rapidly implementing regulations for State driver’s license and identification document security standards. It also had the purpose of preventing terrorists from abusing the asylum laws of the country. Unifying terrorism-related grounds for inadmissibility and removal was another one of its purposes, as well as ensuring expeditious construction of the San Diego border fence.
The act was enacted on May 11, 2005, effective May 11, 2008, and implemented various changes. First of all, title II of the act was meant to establish new federal standards that applied to state-issued driver licenses and non-driver identification cards. It also changed visa limits for temporary workers, Australian citizens, and nurses. Regarding security, the act provided funding for some reports and pilot projects that had to do with b...

Regarding security, the act provided funding for some reports and pilot projects that had to do with border security. New rules covering delivery bonds were also introduces. Delivery bonds are similar to bail bonds, the difference being that the former are intended for aliens who have been released pending hearings. The act also updated and tightened the laws on application for asylum and deportation of aliens for terrorist activity. Another thing the act implements in waiving laws interfering with construction of physical barriers at the borders. Even though the act was concerned with the wellbeing of Americans and with controlling terrorist-related grounds, it still faced criticism and has been subject to numerous controversies.
Before deciding whether you support it or not, here is how the REAL ID Act of 2005 will affect you as a citizen. If you live and work in the United States, the act requires you to have a federally approved ID card for a wide array of purposes, such as traveling by plane, opening a bank account, collecting Social Security payments, and taking advantage of nearly any government service. This means that your driver’s license or ID card needs to be reissued in order to meet the federal standards set by the act. The bottom lime is that the REAL ID Act of 2005 was meant to establish what amounts to a national identity card.
you are not aware of what is on our MILITARY ID cards

Yet liberals only complain about requiring one to vote. Where have all you people been all these years, why haven't you been bitching about ID requirements for everything else? Don't you care that these poor unfortunates can't get cough syrup when they need it?
Love the retards on here who keep saying "you don't need ID , just check the name against the LIST" ...thinking is just to dam much to ask of a democrat isn't it-
Thank you Acorn, SEIU, Black Panthers, Mickey Mouse, The Dead [not the rock band]
everything. And Voting is the most Important...
