Checking ID to screen out LE

I met a provider who checked my ID (my driver’s license) to make sure I am not an LE. She said if I was an LE, my ID would indicate that by a star under or around my picture on the ID. That sounded like a great idea foe a provider to screen a hobbyist. But I am not sure if an ID or a driver’s license would make it clear if person is an LE or not. If it is true it would be possible for a hobbyist to screen a provider. I do not know if a provider would be willing to show her ID but it would be worth a try. Please post if you have some experience or knowledge in this regard. Thanks.

Sooner or later everyone would know about it and then what good would it do.

Besides, there's an easier way for one LE to show another that they are also LE, just flash their badge.

I'm afraid this is an urban legend unless someone out there can validate it.

I know that when I would check id in Vegas,while working for this one service,i was suppose to make sure that the name matched the one that they were given and that it was from the state that the person said they were from.the only problem with this was,LE gets id's from other states.
I have seen LE or house security with id's from the east coast and Hawaii.
So,I don't know what good checking really does.

They have Two ID cards.
My dad was a cop .He had a regular drivers license & his police ID .
They do not put your occupation on your drivers license.
Armed forces is different in this case.
That kind of info such as occupation/status blah blah blah RFID chip NWO crap would be on "The real id" card that people are staring to use.

Not really for the ID to check if it is LE or not. However ID and another proof of ID is to prove the person is said stated they are so you dont get jack the ripper etc Im more concerned with predators and repeat offenders than the LE. LE usually pressures you for an appt right away wont give a last name and wont give place of business ect same with someone up to no good! Angela
