In reply to the discussion: Kristi Noem said you should keep proof of citizenship on your person at all time [View all]Deuxcents
(25,689 posts)67. I was thinking about so many people who lost everything in natural disasters. Getting duplicated papers
Takes forever and in some cases, the original was the only copy. I carry my drivers license and insurance card with me for emergency purposes. My original birth certificate had typo errors and I had to go before a judge with an attorney and every bit of information I could find to get it straightened out and that judgment is in my safe with my Will and other documents. Im not about to carry it around. The reports are out there that agents have confiscated papers and theyre never returned or what happened to them.

EXACTLY! Since they now think they can kill with impunity, what's a little theft to them?

To what end? Thugs just looking to hurt people won't accept proof, as how recent history has proven.

And Kristi should keep the thought of going to prison in the back of her mind as we will take back power. nt
