False Identification Research Paper

In order to offer a viable platform in which restaurants can offer alcoholic beverages as part of their drink line, the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission has created a set of guidelines which establishments must utilize in order to initiate a more responsible service to the community. According to the TABC guidelines (2014) these guidelines should clear following national, state, and local laws when offering alcohol to patrons, such as ensuring that alcoholic beverage is only served to those over age 21 (checked if they appear to be under 30), a valid Texas driver’s license, or another valid identification must be used, and employees must refuse service to anyone that does not fit these criteria. However, there are also TABC guidelines (2014) which are state defined, such as the need to refuse service to anyone that appears to be intoxicated, prohibit employees from serving customers to the point of intoxication, offer mediation for intoxicated customers who wish to leave the premises in such a state, and adhere to the TABC certification regulations. A secondary goal, to this extent is also to meet the mixed beverage gross sales tax requirements at a rate of 6.7% after Jan.1, 2014 and 14% prior to Jan. 1, 2014, as well as the mixed beverage sales tax, which was implemented after Jan. 1, 2014. In order to draw more insight into the subject, the Olive Garden restaurant has looked up.

At Summit, a customer must be 21 to get a wristband, which enables a customer to order alcohol. If a customer is under 21, they receive permanent marker X’s on their hands. Fake ID’s are an issue in every college town. Students purchase expensive and impressive ID’s off of the internet. Fake ID’s may be even more relevant in Iowa City where the bar scene is so important to the culture of the city.

Another standard Caulfield must abide by: the current drinking laws. Caulfield is an avid drinker at clubs and bars, nevertheless, waiters constantly do not serve him due to his age. While in his hotel bar, The Lavender Room, Caulfield attempts ordering a drink, “I ordered a Scotch and soda, and told him not mix--I said it fast as hell, because if you ham and haw, they think you’re under twenty-one and won’t sell you any intoxicating liquor. I had trouble with him anyway…” (90-91). Ordering a drink fast and not look like anything is wrong is the approach Caulfield takes when soliciting a drink from the bar; the waiter is no use though for he will not serve Caulfield without verification. A separate occasion of Caulfield acquiring alcoholic refreshments is at Ernie’s, a popular night club. At the same time of being seated, Caulfield orders a drink, certain he will not be carded, “I ordered a Scotch and soda, which is my favorite drink, next to frozen Daiquiris. If you were only around six years old, you could get liquor at Ernie’s, the place was so dark and all, and besides, nobody cared how old you were” (111). When showing up to Ernie’s, Caulfield knows he will receive alcohol as a result of the waiters do not verify your age.

You are only required to provide police with evidence of your name and address for an I.D. check. A driver’s license is usually sufficient.

Everyone has seen the supposed killing of a Virginia reporter Alison Parker and a camera man Adam Ward. I say supposed because this is yet again another false flag attack against the second amendment of the Untitled States!

In sociology, ascribed is a position or identity that is neither earned nor chosen, but assigned at birth or assumed involuntarily later in life like race, sex, or having a disability. On the other hand, proscribed is a position or identity that is earned or chosen such as gender, parenthood, or being a student. Having a minority ascribed and proscribed identity in a society that has not moved on from racial, economic, and gender inequality becomes challenging for those who are not the majority. However, there are also advantages to having a minority ascribed and proscribed identity. I have experienced the benefits and disadvantages of having a minority ascribed and proscribed identity. My ascribed identity is Afro-Latina, while my proscribed status is being a poor single young mother who is a student.

In order to safely lower drinking age, the federal government should instill more training courses over alcohol safety into the criteria in our nation's high schools. Along with the idea of providing more alcohol based education in the public school system, if students were to complete certain courses they should be eligible to apply for a drinker’s ID. In order to obtain a drinker's ID, 18 year old adults still in high school would be required to take courses such the chemistry of alcohol, the physical impacts to one's body as a result of alcohol abuse, and the consequences because of driving under the influence and possible addiction (“The Debate On Lowering The Drinking Age”). The chief of police in the college town of Boulder, Colorado, states that “The abuse of alcohol and the overconsumption of alcohol and DUI driving. Those are the areas we've gotta focus our efforts. Not on chasing kids around trying to give 'em a ticket for having a cup of beer in their hand" (“The Debate On Lowering The Drinking Age”). Even though the age restriction would be lifted, a drinker's ID may be revoked if tampered with. For example, if a young adult with a drinker’s ID drove while under the influence or bought alcohol for a minor then his ID would become invalid and ineligible to be reclaimed. Efforts by the United States government to put effective, drinker’s ID programs into action would stimulate teenagers to stop revolting against law enforcement and comply

Identity theft can be divided into several categories and, unfortunately, this fast growing crime already reached our medical records. This kind of identity theft, classified as medical identity theft, can easily be done because there are also several persons, whether authorized or unauthorized, who can access our medical records that contains necessary and confidential information. These people can be anyone, from physicians to other medical personnel or even some other persons who really want your medical identity.

This allows for illegal immigrants with fake identifications to pass off their cards as driver’s license at the airport and another other place, which creates a major security gap. Advocates for illegal immigrants have opposed parts of the law that require “noncompliant” cards for undocumented workers to look different than licenses for U.S. citizens and legal residents according to Jeunesse. For example, in Colorado, the distinguishing feature for the identification card is a small black band. In D.C., there is a small star in the corner that distinguishes their identification cards. Currently, there are

For two generations, Americans have needed to be 21 – or own an ID that states as such – to legally purchase and consume alcohol (Griggs, 1). According to The World Health Organization “the U.S. [is] one of only a handful of developed countries –Iceland, Japan, South Korea and Thailand are others – with a minimum drinking age over 18” (Griggs, 1). When Ronald Reagan signed the National Minimum Drinking Age Act in 1984, its goal was to reduce less-mature adults from consuming alcohol and performing reckless acts (Cary, 1). However, despite the current drinking age, 17.5 percent of consumer spending for alcohol in 2013 was under the age of 21. It is estimated that “90 percent of underage drinking is consumed via binge drinking…with alcohol abuse becoming more prevalent among the country’s youth” (Aguirre, 1).

Many eighteen-year-olds are college freshmen, and, in most colleges, beer is available to people under the age of twenty-one. "Remorseless drinking has long been as much a ritual of university life as football, final exams, and frat parties" (Gorman, 176). I believe that the federal government is tempting these underage adults by restricting their legal ability to drink in such an environment as college campuses where it is legal for many of the students to consume alcoholic beverages. In order to be able to drink alcohol, many underage adults purchase fake forms of identification; "Raising the legal drinking age from 18 to 21 in the 1980s merely triggered a boom in the business of creating fake ID cards" (Gorman, 176). People twenty-years of age and younger are purchasing these fake forms of identification in order to allow them to enter and drink in bars with their friends who

There is a thief that lurks around us everyday; this thief can attack in brad day light or in the darkest hour, and just about anywhere you may find yourself. This thief has the power to act in your name, make unlimited purchases, open up credit accounts and ruin your good name and credit all in the matter of seconds; if you are vulnerable enough, you might become his next victim. In many cases all he needs is your name and a social security number, and he has enough information to make you his next victim; if you don’t believe me then ask the millions of Americans that became victim’s, or just ask me. The thief that I am talking about is identity theft. Identity theft is a

     In developing the concept for the product, we thought of many factors that effect alcohol drinkers of all kinds (of legal age, of course). We were going to provide a service to all those drinkers who love to sit back at home and drink bar quality beverages without trying to make it themselves. It would be less time consuming because someone will be making it for you. All drink makers will be licensed bartenders with certificates posted. The menu will attract to college, older adults, and even newly turned 21 year-olds who want to try different kinds of beverages. The store will have an in-store menu with take home menus available.

15. This just shows that bartenders are not carding. Their reasons may differ, but it seems as though females are easily passed off as legal drinking age regardless of what their I.D. says. From my three years of personal experience in the club industry I realized many young females received drinks from the bartenders despite their age. Walking into clubs females usually don’t even get carded as long as they are good looking they get the wristband. Clubs and bars should have females at the front greeting because that would eliminate underage drinking. Also, I.D scanners would help because there would no way of getting in with a fake I.D. If clubs and bars were stricter and had better tools to prevent underage drinking this problem would decrease rapidly.

Public transit users can show an e-ID to fare inspectors instead of a pass, and drivers can do the same in lieu of a license or registration.
