Your Paper Please!

In many areas of the United States today, you will be arrested if you do not produce proper identification for the police.  In the old days, “your papers please”was a phrase that was used to use to mock the tyranny of Nazi Germany.  But now all of us are being required to be able to produce “our papers” for law enforcement authorities at any time.  For example, a 21-year-old college student named Samantha Zucker was recently arrested and put in a New York City jail for 36 hours just because she could not produce any identification for police.
