ROTC for law enforcement?

Help me out here supporters very worried illegals without legal ID will avoid law enforcement why is this bad?

  • Arizona lawmakers have been trying to get the law passed for nearly a decade. In 2005, it passed the Legislature but was vetoed by then-Gov. Janet Napolitano. Among the reasons listed in her veto letter was concern that it could push foreign nationals to illegally acquire other forms of identification, including forged Social Security cards. The new law will not affect immigrants' ability to use the cards at private businesses. For example, many banks accept the card as adequate identification to set up an account. The law would forbid, for example, a city from accepting a consular ID card as the only required identification to get a library card or a police officer accepting the card as an official means of identification during an investigation. Phoenix intergovernmental liaison John Wayne Gonzales said that the cards sometimes are accepted as one of several documents someone may provide to verify identity but that they are not accepted as a primary source of identification. "Police may look at them if they are available but will not use them as a source of official identification," Gonzales said. Phoenix Sgt. Tommy Thompson said the new law will have little impact on law enforcement or how police deal with immigrants. Immigrants are concerned. "People need a way to identify themselves in order to report crime when they are a victim or witness, and they were accustomed to using (consular) ID," said Connie Andersen, a member of the Valley Interfaith Project, an organization of churches, schools and non-profit agencies. "This tells them they have to put that away. Some people don't have alternative forms of ID. Now, they're not sure what to do." She said the new law is giving immigrants more reason to avoid law enforcement, even to report a crime.

Is the drug cartel now afraid and will avoid law enforcement, this causes distrust between drug cartels and police, removing years of built up trust ?

  • Answer:

    Anybody should be able to get a passport of their country. You don't need to travel to your own country in order to get a passport, you can get one through the embassy of your home country. The embassy isn't going to check your legal status. You only have to show to them that you are indeed a citizen of their country. A passport is a recognized form of identification with any government office. Or non-governmental for that case.
