PAPERS, KOMRADE?

Can someone please explain to me why it is so bad to be required to be able to identify yourself properly with documentation? I have a Driver’s License, and if I’m pulled over by a police officer, which I have been, I have to be able to show my license, my vehicle registration and my proof of insurance. When the officer calls in my ID, he or she will be verifying whether or not I have any warrants out for my arrest, if my license is valid, and if my insurance is up to date. If I don’t have a license, or my registration, or my insurance, guess what: I’m going to jail! That’s right. Until I can prove those things, I get to go to jail, and THAT’S in Florida, not Arizona!
