Alabama Supreme Court just ruled that just giving your name to a police officer isn't enough anymore in the not so great state of Alabama. You must be prepared to show physical ID if the police officer in his subjective opinion decides your answers are unsatisfactory.
Case was a pastor watering his neighbors plants while they were on vacation. Karen calls police when she didn't recognize his car. Cops ask who he is and what he's doing. "I'm pastor jennings, I live across the street". Karen even identifies him as a neighbor, but cops still demand ID. He is arrested when he fails to provide physical ID.
Not even a traffic stop, on private property and after Karen realized he was in fact a neighbor the cops should of walked away.
The word "physical" in this ruling is the scary part. Don't go jogging in Alabama without your papers.
IMO the Alabama Supreme court judges who sided with the state on this need to spend a few decades in a prison cell. Maybe then they will understand what taking away people's liberty means.
