Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Almost like it's too complicated to be solved on the street during random stops...
Side note:
Next round of IDs can we stop putting addresses on there?
If a cop needs to know your address, they can view that when scanning it. It doesn't need to be printed on there for anybody to see. And most people rent and don't update anyways.
Even DOB too, just have a pass/fail for 21. No one needs your exact date of birth.
It's crazy we put all that info on there.
Where I come from we don't have addresses on IDs - you'd have to replace them any time you move.
Then I got in (mild) trouble with German police because i didn't. I had honestly never seen one that had it.
