Arizona is requiring U.S. citizens to carry birth certificates with them at all times. Well, not all U.S. citizens, just the ones who look...you know... "different" and fail to "answer questions correctly":
He tells 3TV, “I don't think it's correct, if I have to take my birth certificate with me all the time.” [...]
Abdon was told he did not have enough paperwork on him when he pulled into a weigh station to have his commercial truck checked. He provided his commercial driver’s license and a social security number but ended up handcuffed.
An agent called his wife and she had to leave work to drive home and grab other documents like his birth certificate.
This is a United States citizen we're talking about. In the United States. Land of the free.
And this citizen was forced to "show his papers."
Racial profiling his alive and well in Arizona.
