ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

why the kid gloves? It is certainly not racist to investigate or deport someone for attempting to enter, work and operate a motor vehicle in the USA illegally. It's never been frowned upon to enforce existing laws for regular citizens; Americans are required to maintain a complicated series of papers, licenses and identification numbers in order to be compliant with state and federal laws.

Your driver's license, social security number, federal tax identification numbers for small business owners and self-employed people are all part of the equation. The Internal Revenue Service penalizes Americans who work, earn money and buy goods without paying state and local taxes. You can be punished for driving without a license. Citizens can be penalized for lack of documentation. What's the first thing a police officer asks for when you are pulled over? Identification.
