Would you give a thumb print to get a drivers license, as a condition of employment and for any state services to stop illegals use of false ID and to block them from any jobs or welfare? States could get rid of the illegals by killing the jobs/cash flow/entitlements, then give a ten year sentence for use of false ID with intent to defraud the state. Upon employment the workers thumb print would have to be matched to the one on back of his DL or in a state file within 15 days. If they don't match and not terminated and turned over to police then a $50k fine to the employer. Anyone from another state wanting employment would be required to get an ID card similar to the DL. Ten years? If your in the USA with false ID you're a spy or your a terrorist we know how those people should be dealt with.

I have given complete sets of finger prints to secure 2 or my last 3 jobs and prints to purchase many many firearms. Nothing to hide, so pass the pad.

no wonder they had no problem getting the no 10K cash or larger without a report filed to the gov't
that was to help stop the drug trade, boy has that worked wonders???
now we're gonna battle illegal immigration by having every one give a thumb print?
imo, they've conditioned us well, perhaps too well
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

2L2Q, The reason I asked about thumb prints is that it may be a way to insure the ID used is legit. It is hard to hold employers responsible for hiring illegals that have ID and SS cards that can't be distinguished from originals. If IDs can be verified by a thumb print then employers can be held responsible (fined) for hiring illegals and the illegals can be kept out of the job market, off the state dole and deported. ID and employment can be controlled by the state instead of the feds. That way each state controls its level of enforcement, facilitating States Rights. Is there a more reliable way to insure ID/citizenship is legit?

A lot of banks now require thumb prints to cash checks. So why not for an ID? I see no problem with requiring someone to verify who they are. If they won't, what are they hiding?

Utilizing very simple and very necessary profiling techniques they'll not need thumbprints of the vast majority.
Kinda like feeling up little old white ladies at airports, it's completely unnecessary, an insult to common sense and decency, and an affront to very concept of liberty. Not to mention a very expensive waste of resources.

Thumbprint?
Don't know why not. I have to give one to the bank every time I cash a check. WHAT??? A lot of banks now require thumb prints to cash checks. WHAT??? WOW... None here have that requirement, that I am aware of.. The day my bank asks for that I'll be outta there after closing the accounts.. I can, to an extent, understand and mostly agree with the OP's original question.. But to be required to give a thumbprint every time a check is cashed is pure bull-Pelosi..

I see no problem with requiring someone to verify who they are. If they won't, what are they hiding? If that applied first to anyone seeking the Presidency, perhaps I'd be more inclined to agree.

I think a lot of banks require a thumbprint when cashing a check for a non-account holder. They have the right to protect themselves from fraud and there's no shortage of that. My bank has an ink pad at every teller window, but I've never been asked to use it.

I just read this Foxnews quote by a Hispanic US citizen in AZ: But the 18-year-old high school student from Phoenix said he's afraid he'll be arrested anyway if police see him driving around with friends and relatives, some of them illegal immigrants.
"If a cop sees them and they look Mexican, he's going to stop me," Berrelleza said. "What if people are U.S. citizens? They're going to be asking them if they have papers because of the color of their skin." He flat out admits that he's helping harbor criminals. That in itself is a crime. Does the new law address that?

I wonder of the Illeagals hired for work in the US what precentage never had the E-verify run on them or did they have false ID of a legal worker that passed the E-verify?
If 90% of Illegals have never been run through E-verify, adding a thumb print to something not checked isn't going do anything except add another bit of governemnet oversight to something that already not working. On that thought I think that empploying someone who you did not run through E-verify should be a felony with at least a 25K fine.( enforceable at the local level (with the fine going to local government)
On the other hand if the employers are using E-verify and all the IDs are bogus then we need a thumb print.
The one flaw of ID in the US is that it all originates from a Birth certificate which has no link to a real person. I mean if you have a birth certificate of someone of your sex and aproximate age you can easily assume that identity.
The collection of taxes which are not absolutely required, which do not beyond reasonable doubt contribute to public welfare, is only a species of legalized larceny. Under this Republic the rewards of industry belong to those who earn them. Coolidge

Mine has my footprint on it (issued in Oregon). Granted, it's hard to ID someone by having them give you a footprint, but it does establish positive identification.

Ill bet that if I had your BC, niether the SS admin or the DMV are set up to check that footprint. That means I would have your SS card and DL with your name and my picture real soon. Have good credit?.. I hope so so I get a high limit on my new card

Policy is not the isuue, enforcement is. No matter what policies we have on immigration, firearms, check cashing or friggin cookie baking, if they are not fully enforced they arent worth a cup of pizz.

I think a lot of banks require a thumbprint when cashing a check for a non-account holder. Banks here will only cash checks for account holders, otherwise you're SOL.. Maybe that's the reason for the prints - to allow a check to be cashed w/o an account.. IYAM, that still leaves the bank open to a lot of liability if the check's bogus..

No matter what policies we have on immigration, firearms, check cashing or friggin cookie baking, if they are not fully enforced they arent worth a cup of pizz. Once again, that's the whole issue - enforcement. We don't need more laws. We just need the existing ones to be enforced. And if our elected or hired officials fail to do so, they need to be replaced by LAW ABIDING citizens.

Is there a more reliable way to insure ID/citizenship is legit? The very fact that you're using the word "citizen" in connection with compulsory ID shows how far statism has infected this nation. A man who can be required by the State to produce ID upon demand under penalty of incarceration is not a citizen, he's a subject.There appear still to be some Americans who sort of vaguely and fuzzily understand that concept when it's presented in a black-and-white war movie with uniformed Nazi soldiers with Fritz helmets poking a yellow-starred Jew with Mauser muzzles and growling, "Deine Papieren! Schnell! Schnell!" but apparently when it's Officer Friendly asking, "Say, can I see your ID?" it's for some reason understood as a completely different animal. It's not, you know. It's precisely the same thing.
"But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain--that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist." --Lysander Spooner, 1867

Big difference between using ID for employment or due to reasonable suspicion of being in the country illegally and just "papers please". First of all, the Arizona law itself expressly requires that law enforcement officers look into a person�s immigration status if, and only if, they have �reasonable suspicion� to do so. Here is the operative provision from the new law:
1.
FOR ANY LAWFUL CONTACT MADE BY A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL OR AGENCY OF THIS STATE OR A COUNTY, CITY, TOWN OR OTHER POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THIS STATE WHERE REASONABLE SUSPICION EXISTS THAT THE PERSON IS AN ALIEN WHO IS UNLAWFULLY PRESENT IN THE UNITED STATES, A REASONABLE ATTEMPT SHALL BE MADE, WHEN PRACTICABLE, TO DETERMINE THE IMMIGRATION STATUS OF THE PERSON.
