The American Police State is a Reality

From a NYT news article.

"In Virginia, Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agents waited outside a church shelter where undocumented immigrants had gone to stay warm.  In Texas and in Colorado, agents went into courthouses, looking for foreigners who had arrived for hearings on other matters."

"At Kennedy International Airport in New York, passengers arriving after a 5 hour flight from San Francisco were asked to show their documents before they were allowed to get off the plane."

I don't fly very much any more, but I can guarantee you that if I am asked to show a document to get off the plane, I will refuse and dial 911 to report a kidnapping if I am made a prisoner.  There is no legal requirement in this country that requires providing documents to get off a means of transportation.
