Identity Documents and Deportation

[yallerdawg]

1. A few years ago we were stopped in a State Trooper "random check" road block.

This was outside a sleepy little hollow called Clio in southern rural Alabama.

The state had passed some of the most stringent immigration laws in the US, worse than Arizona.

Just down from Clio is a huge in-the-middle-of-nowhere chicken-processing plant - with a rather "unique" workforce for southern Alabama.

Talk about 'white privilege.'

The trooper asked for registration and proof of insurance. We dug through the glove box and couldn't find any of it! I was about to "poop my pants." This is state law and this was a big, bad state trooper!

He looks around at all four of the "white" passengers and says, "Thank you, have a nice day."

We weren't on the agenda that day.

Believe me - what you said - we are getting all our papers together now.
