What would happen if the US Government asked civilians to wear dogtags?

Question

I lived in Las Vegas in the 1950s when children were required to wear dogtags because of the testing at a nearby military installation.

Does anyone else remember those days?

.

Answer 1

I already carry an ID everywhere I go, I wouldn't care about wearing a dogtag unless it had GPS in it or something.  

Everybody jumps to Revelation when people talk about these things.  Do they not know that there is a line in Ezekiel somewhere about God marking the righteous with a sign on their forehead?  I guess you can't use that line to scare anybody though, now can you?

Answer 2

Well, It would be very much like the book of revalations, which says every one will need a personal ID to buy or sell. but It would be pretty weird!~~~

Answer 3

It's called RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification). It's coming...

I suspect most folk will simply line up and be numbered, like the sheep they are. The rest will be declared criminal.

Answer 4

I can't remember it because it was long before my birth, and I've never even heard of it...but it seems the US did a few things in that era that they don't want in the history books.

To answer the Q, I would revoke my petition for citizenship,

and move on.

The more intimately I get to know America, the more I am surprised by it's loose definitions of freedom!

Answer 5

don't remember that but not at all surprised..

think the govt would go further then dogtags & use microchips like we do with animals..  the next would be we'd have a G..?? locater to know everyones whereabouts...

Then I'm outta here..Bye Bye Freedom

Answer 6

I suppose most civilians would go 'barking mad' at the prospect...lol...

Answer 7

You're behind the times. In 2008 they want to require you to carry a national "Real  ID" card with biometric data and goodness knows what else. Big Brother doesn't want to watch-he wants YOU to tell him where you are.
