"this is rather provocative in a city and state which does not require identification"
I've spent not more than a couple of weeks in total in the NY and during that time I was required to produce identification more times than I had in years spent in various continental European countries - where in theory you were obliged to carry Id with you at all times.
Just because I wanted to buy a beer or order wine with food in a bar or restaurant. I was in my late 20s at the time.
It's just what you're used to.
- nanis 5y agoPlease quote correctly. I said: > this is rather provocative in a city and state which does not require identification, among other situations, when you register to vote or vote.
- derriz 5y agoI don't feel I distorted your claim very much? In full: "While people in other countries may be used to always having to carry identification, this is rather provocative in a city and state which does not require identification, among other situations, when you register to vote or vote" I don't know why it's so provocative compared to us people from "other countries" as my experience in the US involved being required to present identification far more frequently than I had in many European countries. I'm not sure the full quote changes my point much?
