I'm all for cameras and ID cards if it helps sort out the ..., stuff my civil liberties in favour of a decent society.

I'm a bit unsure of how ID cards would make a difference in this case.....

And DNA Swabbing!

id cards lmao!!! will never work.

Agreed, to get hold of a fake ID these days is so simple a 10year old could do it.
