Right to privacy. Right against unreasonable search and seizure....
Absent of being suspected of a specific crime there is no constitutional
requirement to say who in particular you are if you are in a public place.
Certainly private property owners can impose whatever restrictions on their
property use they wish, including the presentment of satisfactory ID, but
public property is not private, and the government can impose no such and
still remain constitutional.

I would be opposed to any other than a very brief use of my ID information, but giving it out to briefly check whether I am on a list of wanted people seems OK (...)
