Past tense part 1 & 2
These episodes occurred in the year 2024, not to far off from now. I just watched them and felt a chill at how close the U.S. could be to the things portrayed in these parts are from happening. Locked down sections of cities, martial law ruling inside those areas, criminals just doing whatever they want to without fear of arrest or imprisonment. Rioting, looting, etc.

Superficially. The two parter explained that the reason for those camps is a result of fixing homelessness and other things. Something not really touched is the fact they sent people without a valid ID to these areas.

A lot of states are demanding updated ID’s and enhanced driver’s licenses. Birth certificates and passports are gradually being phased out.

Re: Past tense part 1 & 2
Yep. Face value it makes sense. You need an ID and valid one, in case of mistaken identity, identity theft etc. But someone that could be an issue is people that can't obtain an ID for some reasons. And no I am not talking about illegal aliens, undocumented workers etc. I have known people who had to jump through hoops due to an incorrect SSN they have had all their life being bad. Or that not everyone can get a driver's license because of whatever reason. Stuff like that.00111010 01000100 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 28, 2020 3:28 am A lot of states are demanding updated ID’s and enhanced driver’s licenses.

Re: Past tense part 1 & 2
I keep trying to get my ID's updated with my mask on, since that's what they ask you to leave covered when driving onto base and at security check points. lol, yeah, "half my face is covered, this totally looks like me on the picture ID".McAvoy wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 8:10 pmYep.
