Actually, yes they are required to have it on their person at all times.
I know, I have one. There used to be a fine of $20,000 and/or 6 months
in jail if one didn't have it on them. I have no idea if that is still
in effect.

privilege.

More than likely that would be the end result. They just don't seem to
be able to foresee what extra work would be required.

Amen to that! That's their job and what they should be doing.

You and Aratzio are the only ones who seem to think so.

As usual, you can't seem to follow a simple idea.

Most Liberals can't. Seems to come with the lack of brain cells, I guess.
