And I look like a gringo. Plus, Cubans in Cuba don't carry papers when out and about and I've never seen anyone in Cuba being asked to produce papers on the street, and there's hardly any cops (who are all unarmed) to be seen.

AZ is much more of a gulag state than "Castro's Cuba" (excluding, of course, the US's own gulag at Gitmo) in more ways than this.

3. That's a frame that even Republicans can understand.
Make it viral.

5. I have travelled repeatedly to almost
every country in Latin America, as well as Europe (including Russia) and have never been asked for my papers except at the Immigration kiosk upon entry to the country. Only in America (i.e. Aridzona)...

6. Weird
I had to produce papers just to fly within the united states.

How did you get on a plane?

7. Except for entering and exiting countries & checking into a few hotels, I've never had to show a
passport or visa in any of the foreign countries I've visited.
