Edited to correct video.
Well, the first reason is that this is not Nazi Germany, and I am not required to allow an officer to infringe on my rights unless they have a valid reason. Your attempt to turn this around, especially as a cop is incredibly disconcerting. Why would you ask for ID unless something is suspected to be wrong? If you can't explain what you believe I did wrong I will not happily give up my rights. There doesn't need to be a better reason than that. This is not a police state.
