Boing Boing: You are now required to show ID to police for no reason at all
Interesting how the Bloomberg article phrases it in a more sugar coated way:
Police can arrest criminal suspects for refusing to identify themselves, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a decision that puts new limits on constitutional rights.
"Criminal suspects". Unhunh.
I think I am going to scrap my plans for a Boston/NYC roadtrip and seriously consider not setting foot in that police state until things become sane again. :(
