Thing is, the risk of forgery cannot be a valid argument. You could say the sam e about credit cards, and even cash; it's just a risk you have to take into account. |
Actually, I was making the point that the government has said that ID cards will prevent terrorism. I don't think they will. There will be a way for terrorists to forge them. I wasn't using the risk of forgery as a reason not to introduce ID cards.
Having said that, I actually agree with ID cards.
