As one of the major differences between the US and Communist countries - that a citizen does not have to provide ID unless they are doing something that requires a license, such as driving a car.

I guess this proves we are no longer the free country we purport to be.

they're doing this on purpose. They're trying to kill him, and they would have succeeded if there were no witnesses. They want the anger/sorrow/rage that follows a brutal murder of an innocent black man. They want chaos.

All of that for no ID?!
