2. Never go anywhere without rock-solid proof of your identification

This is especially true for any Latino-Americans, but really, any of us could be stopped at any time. I always carry my US Passport and Real ID. I also have a certified copy of my birth certificate but it's safely stored at home. I don't carry it with me because it's somewhat delicate.

Your cellphone is not proof of anything. Plus it's the first thing the Nazis will take in order to find "evidence" against you. I'm not breaking the law, but I am getting more and more paranoid every day.
