That will cover both people wanted for INS violations and murders. And jaywalkers. So if someone has an outstanding warrent for jaywalking you do not want that information provided to law enforcement persons when they run a warrent check on you??? -Robert If the person has an outstanding warrant and hasn't paid the fine or no-showed for court why not. Do you think the state has no right to use methods to capture those who break its laws? The problem is, some of the laws they are enforcing aren't Constitutional and no one has done a damn thing about it. Name one that has ever had an effect on someone's DL. |

So you are saying if someone has a warrent for their arrest for a crime
against a law you think might be unconstitutional your solution to fixing that issue is not to allow law enforcement officers access to that information when they run a DL during a traffic stop???? Just plain crazy! -Robert Emily wrote: The problem is, some of the laws they are enforcing aren't Constitutional and no one has done a damn thing about it. |

In that case, the DL should not be flagged, or checked, for any infraction. The flags are there to catch people who are breaking the law, and bring them to justice. Last I heard, it is against the law to be in this country without valid and current, permission from INS, if you are an alien. Well this is where things get interesting. AFAIK (as a Brit who has gone through the legal immigration system) being in the country illegally is against the law but it isn't actually a crime; if you get caught you just get deported, not tried and jailed. That's what some politicians in Washington are working on now, I've heard - they want to make being here illegally a felony, so you get tried, serve jail time, *then* get deported. FWIW I too have concerns about changing the purpose of driving licenses too far. They're *driving* licenses, not ID cards. Their function is to 'prove' you've been trained to drive safely. Beware of getting national ID cards by the back door... Ihre Papieren, bitte! Mike |
