      The fourth amendment of the US Constitution makes it illegal in the US... I assumed other countries had similiar laws. i cant imagine how they wouldnt

        police in the us are still sometimes known for doing it but its illegal if brought to the attention of the court. this actually does result in the problem of evidence illegally found on a suspect (the police officer had no reasonable suspicion or nothing and illegally searched someone and discovered an illegal substance or weapons) being thrown out and the suspect obviously being found innocent as there's no evidence... i think they should be tried and convicted and THEN the criminal can sue for illegal search.

          also the 14th and 15th amendments doubly prevent these illegal searches on account of race.

            Racial profiling a huge abuse of state authority and a totally idiotic allocation of police resources.

              puh-lease......

              was checked for ID lots of times ( not for boose aquisition, though. ). Never bothered me the slightest. But I guess people can stress themselves out for just about anything.

                Good luck with backing those claims up.

                  I mean, I can see why, and even condone special task forces of the police to deal with certain communities, that can cause more trouble ( and I buy myself immunity from flames, because I am myself a member (sort of) of a community which is blamed for a nice slice of organized crime, petty, and not so ) but checking out people on the street randomly because they're black white green or whatever is stupid.
                  Well, if they're green, I can understand being a little curious...

                    It is wrong. It's deliberate persecution of immigrants that the state doesn't like.

                        At least in the US, a motive for ID cards is to more easily kick out illegal immigrants.

                            We're touching two different questions here.

                              Same here.
                              Unfortunately, most of our coloured people happen to be completely French with French nationality. I.e, it serves no purpose whatsoever. And of course, the fact that our coloured people are systematically favored for ID checks (and other things, such as looking at the pockets for drugs) makes sure they become more angry and feel separate from a country and a police who treats them as second class citizens

                                and what the hell are these ID cards? they sound like what South Africa forced on blacks over there...

                                damn the US is looking more and more like the only bastion of freedom in the world...
