Pledge “NationalID”

"I will refuse to accept a national ID card but only if 999 other people will do the same."

— Kat Dillon, Dissident (contact)

Deadline to sign up by: 31^st December 2008
833 people have signed up, 166 more needed

Country: United States

More details
The Real ID Act goes into effect in 2008. If it is implemented in my state, I will cut up my driver's license and refuse to accept a national ID card. Real ID mandates that states include biometric data in machine readable format in their driver's licenses, and that all your personal infomation be linked in a national database. The machine readable technology is likely to be RFID, which is very insecure. Identity theft would be rampant under this plan.

National ID has always been a hallmark of a police state. Its purpose is to control us, not to protect us. Join with us in refusing to accept the police state.

• we started this dream over 200 years ago - it has taken just as long to destroy it. in the end the states may no longer be united after this mess is over.
  
  how does this prevent terrorism? how will this prevent another 9/11? terrorists can't get one of these, or figure out how to fake one? terrorists had all required paper work when they flew on 9/11, so what's this for exactly? if you don't take one does that mean you may be considered a terrorist? if you are, the patriot act allows you to be arrested, convicted, questioned, interrogated, tortured, all with out a trial or jury...would you die for this cause - to not carry an ID card? would you fight and die for your freedom?

• WAKE UP This is the FIRST STEP toward the Mark of the Beast. We are WARNED to refuse this mark on pain of death.
  
  Even if you are non-religious, WHY should we be FORCED by the Police State to carry 'our papers' with us at all times? I bet this thing will have our religious association on it, too! What if Jews prefer NOT to have tattoos or marks on their body? WHY should they be forced to wear clothes with a star of david on it? WHY should ANY human be forced to give their personal information to a tyrannical government?
  
  Read the Bible--Listen to Bob Marley--Pray for Peace and an end to War, Violence, and Racism--these three are THEIR tactics to DIVIDE AND CONQUER God's people from each other.

• I never thought I would be agreeing with the Christians who think this card is part of the "mark of the beast," but here I am. I think this card steps over the boundaries of what is acceptable due to the excessive monitoring capabilities that are built in to the card.
  
  There is no security-related purpose to this. If the idea is that we can track down one terrorist who was able to commit a crime on our soil, then that simply overstates the uselessness of the entire concept. You cannot use government tracking to find everybody who would wish harm to our nation. There will always be more as long as our foreign policy continues in this manner. There will never be a way to track every warm body that enters this patch of soil, large as she is, and with 12 million illegal immigrants here now, what's the point anyway? We're clearly never going to be able to find the people who don't want to be found.
  
  Those of you who align with the "if you have nothing to hide" attitude need to read the statements of Thomas Jefferson. It isn't freedom if you have to justify it to yourself to feel it.

  Every thinking human simply must get these under your belt before you can draw any logical conclusions. Conspiracies are EVERYWHERE; they are ubiquitous. Facts cry out for theories. Theories are EVERYWHERE; they are ubiquitous. The official conspiracy theory of 9/11 is irrational and highly implausible with a "low chance of probability". This begs the question, do the alternative theories fit into the puzzle better? Keep watching documentaries and consider all sides because, "Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance."

  Ron Paul, perhaps a final warning to apathetic Americans that Our forgotten legacy of a Republic is at risk. Our Liberties and our Currency ... all are collapsing.
  
  Learn the elemental difference between a Democracy and a Republic. A precise, clear film about what's at risk; why, and the urgent demand for action.
  
  History, it would seem, is about ready to repeat itself, with yet another doomed Empire that simply over-extended and economically collapsed from within. Similarly evident to all from the outside, but completely obscured to the citizenry who are about to perish. The Romans call to America from their graves............WAKE UP!
  
  There are lots of good movements around the world for peace and justice, but most are just picking scales off of a dragon. Limited government, protection of the individual and 9/11 truth will be the only ways for us to protect the liberty of our children and the rest of the earth.

• USA is a constitutional republic not democracy. We are not governed by the majority of the people but by the rule of law. The rule of law protects the minority and weak from the tyranny of the majority. We all have inalienable rights that cannot be voted away by a majority of voters. If the majority of the people want security and is willing to sacrifice liberty, the government still cannot infringe on the rights of the majority nor minority. Democracies are mob rule.
  
  Democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding what's for dinner.
  
  Freedom: Two very hungry wolves looking for dinner and finding a very well-informed and well-armed sheep.
  
  "Freedom is not defined by safety. Freedom is defined by the ability of citizens to live without government interference." - Ron Paul
  
  Take action everyday and every 11th. EMA: educate, motivate, activate. Many hands make light work.
  
  Consider joining forces with those who try to prevent history from repeating itself. Become a student of history. We know of no better way to predict the future than by the past.

• ID Plan Is Broadly Criticized
  Bipartisan Objections Cite Security, Costs and Privacy
  
  By Dafna Linzer
  Washington Post Staff Writer
  Saturday, January 12, 2008; A02
  
  A new Bush administration plan to create national
  standards for driver's licenses drew heavy criticism
  yesterday from civil liberties groups, some Republican
  and Democratic lawmakers, governors, and the travel
  industry.
  
  The critics said the new licenses anticipated under
  the plan, which is aimed at screening out potential
  terrorists and uncovering illegal immigrants, could
  still be forged. They also complained that the
  program, known as Real ID, would be costly for states
  to implement, potentially restrict summer travel, and
  allow private companies access to the personal data of
  most U.S. citizens.
  
  But they also welcomed yesterday's official
  announcement that states have until May 2011 before
  they need to begin issuing licenses that meet the
  department's new guidelines, and until December 2014
  to begin replacing current licenses. Drivers over the
  age of 50 will not have to obtain new licenses until
  the end of 2017.
  
  The deadline extensions give both Congress and future
  presidents time to reconsider what opponents have
  depicted as a national identification system that will
  infringe on privacy rights and leave room for
  large-scale identity theft.

• ...continued from above:
  
  "DHS has kicked the can down the road to the next
  administration, and conceivably the next two or three
  administrations," said Barry Steinhardt, a lawyer with
  the American Civil Liberties Union. Already, 17 states
  have said they would either refuse to issue the new
  licenses or have asked Congress to repeal a 2005 law
  that required states to collect and store additional
  data on driver's license applicants, such as birth
  certificates, Social Security numbers and home
  addresses.
  
  Under Real ID, all new licenses would be
  machine-readable and contain personal information that
  could be scanned by governments and potentially by
  corporations.
  
  At a news conference yesterday, Homeland Security
  Secretary Michael Chertoff said the guidelines
  represent a balance between security and privacy in
  accordance with the Real ID Act. He warned that
  residents in states such as Georgia and Washington,
  which have refused to comply with the program, may be
  subject to additional security checks or prevented
  from boarding flights once the program begins this
  spring.

• I would'nt accept it, even if it was truly secure. So many hackers these days can find out lots of things. What if you lose the card? You lose everything. With that, you are more secure carrying a bunch of cards, it lowers the chances of them getting it. But one thing that would be cool is if certain things were put on a chip and embedded somewhere like on a forearm. I dont think this pledge will stop the goverment or anything, but then again, we might only see the beginning of things like this in years to come.

• My name is Paul David Beard, I am a prominent young businessman from south london. As well as a self confessed entrepreneur, I love life, my family and friends and doing what I can to better society. But if this insane legistlation requirement ever comes to pass I will publicy refuse to endorse to the point of indefinite imprisonment. This is not a future I have envisaged for Britain and its people, nor any other people of the world.
  We must oppose this dreadful depiction of our future now, that has been painted by central government and our central banking system.
