Default Why GA is Dying

PS: Not expecting a reply as I've apparently been 'plonked'!

True Emily, but is there not a law that says you must produce ID to a
Police Officer if requested to do so? A police Officer must show you his
ID if you ask him to, so surely it works the other way too?
Whilst a Security Guard is not a Police Officer, and I suspect this is the
point where a lot of the comments are coming from, they are generally all
police cleared and given limited 'policing' abilities and permissions, as
the actual Police Department cannot be everywhere at the same time.

Not to mention there's a law that you must show a passport. There's not
law about showing ID at a small airport if you're just hanging around.
Yes, the current regime is a problem, but so are people making up
authority that they just don't have.
