In reality, though, what is so secret about a law that says you must show an ID?

If there are pieces of the same law that would tell about some super secret technology or technique, then the judge could/should deny that disclosure, but how can talking about some minimum wage person checking your drivers license against the name on your ticket be a problem with national security? We already know it's happening, right?

This sounds more like legal wrangling than security.

Frankly, I find some of the things that were pushed through (parts of the Patriot Act) after 9/11 to be worrisome from the standpoint of our Constitutional Rights.

I also find it interesting that those we consider Conservatives today support those abridgements. Weren't Conservatives originally the ones who steadfastly upheld strict interpratations of the Constitution and Bill of Rights?
