    Aren’t you republicans always up in arms about having to show your papers like Soviet Russia? In a free country, you don’t have to do that. Being brown isn’t probably cause or reasonable suspicion.

    We have such incredible law enforcement agencies, I’m sure they can find actual evidence through investigations that they don’t need this easy button of demanding everyone show their papers.
