YSK a card in your wallet won't help you much when an ICE agent points a gun at your head and tells you your passport looks fake, without even looking at it.

Lmao it's been shown multiple times that even with a passport shown to ICE they'll just call it fake if they want to abduct you.

You should know that you are not required to identify yourself to the gestapo. This post is in un-American.

The way to combat these idiots is everyone refusing to show identification .

Still seems like a hassle to have to pull that out. They should design something that's more outwardly noticeable like a piece of clothing or maybe just a simple armband they can wear over their clothes that signifies they're jewis-I mean legal or whatever.

My goodness. I can't believe we are living in this era of fascism.

Good luck United States folk.

YSK if ICE thinks you're too brown, they'll just say yours is fake and deport you anyway. It's already happened to US citizens.

“YSK you should comply with authoritarian governments”

Yall are so fucking cooked.

Papers please

If you have to prove you have rights then no one has rights.

You're trolling right? No one should need to unlawfully identify themselves at the bequest of nazis.

A REAL ID is also valid proof of citizenship. ICE clearly does not care.

Ysk papers please within boarders is a regime in turmoil.

Definitive proof of citizenship won't stop ICE from beating or killing you if you have an accent or non-white skin.

You think ICE cares? You think ICE even understands that?

Would be a useful tip in a world where ICE follows the law.

Colored man reaching for something in his jacket or pants?

YSK he's about to get shot.

It won't stop them. Immigration and customs already had a large amount of unchecked power prior to this administration, but under this administration there isn't anything they care about. They've been murdering people in cold blood across multiple blue states for a while now.

Besides that, if people start panicking and trying this then the necessary venues that people have to go to for their first passport(you have to show up in person for your first passport) could become ICE targets or places they stalk. It's not exactly uncommon knowledge that conservatives tend to not bother getting passports either.

YSK: you want to take up as much time as possible (depending on your needs) when talking to ICE. One minute talking to you is one minute they're not teargassing an infant.

Alternate title:

Give the government $30 to stop violating your civil liberties

Apparently ICE doesn't have to look at it.

I'm 100% not showing my papers.

Having a passport card will definitely make it easier for the deportation official to release you after assault you, put you in handcuffs and take you to the station for speaking Spanish in a Mexican restaurant.

This would be more effective if everyone just affixed a symbol to their sleeve.

Maybe that symbol can be easily recognizable like a star or something. We can even make it bright yellow or gold so it's visible from a distance.

I will absolutely refuse any unlawful order to see my “papers”.

Reach for your wallet and get blasted.

What a time to be alive.

Many others have pointed out multiple probably even more important issues with this. I'd just like to add that it's actually $30 to the state department and another $30 to the processing department (like the post office if you take it there) and another processing fee for the photograph.

Mine was closer to $100 and cannot be used for international air travel.

So unless you're planning a cruise or a land crossing, this is a $100 fee to try to avoid getting arrested.
