I am sorry I have many friend who came here legally and feel it is wrong that illegals get away with stuff like this. People always play the "race card" when it works in their favor. I think we have a big problem with things like that and why is it never ok for a "white" person to play the "race card" sorry to tell everyone but "white" people are getting out number and stats show by 2012 they will be. So just carry your ID!

This person sounds stupid, but this reminded me of a conversation I had yesterday.
The woman I was speaking to was of Mexican descent, and didn't understand "what the big deal was." I tried to explain what was wrong with the bill, and her response was similar to the quoted response ("Just show your ID!").
The kicker, though, was this gem: "Well, you probably get pulled over for DWB and it's the same thing! Why is it an issue now??"
It made me upset that a college-educated individual tried to use that as a defense.
