Papers, Please.

It's like a scene from an old war movie where the Gestapo walk the aisles of a train demanding "papers" -- your ID.

It's routine when a public bus passes by the Denver Federal Center. All the passengers have to present ID for the safety of the US Geological Survey and the National Archives branch offices.

Deborah Davis (picutured on the bus pass) -- mother of a soldier serving in Iraq -- has had enough of the "papers, please" mentality and is putting up a fight.

Federal law says none of us have to carry nor present ID in such cases. But Ms Davis has been ordered off the bus for refusing to obey security guards.
