    Totally understand, but if I'm requesting to search your car it's probably during a traffic stop, and if you are stopped on a traffic violation you are required to produce ID. Not required to consent to vehicle search.

      Wow. I personally will never come to take your guns away. I'm on the right wing side, and still respect your privacy rights. I have a job to do, based on the US Constitution and Texas laws. I love my job. I love working with a K9. I get great personal satisfaction from the fact that doing my job provides MOST of our citizens with a sense of security and the knowledge that when things go sideways we will be there as soon as we can to make things as right as possible. Some people we will never please, but most of them are on the wrong side of the law.

        I don't know one LEO that really cares what your name and address are. I ask for ID of every person I make contact with in an enforcement situation. Main reason is to confirm identify (picture matches name given.) Another reason is Warrant checks. I couldn't look myself in the mirror if I found out that a person I let go without Identifying was a wanted murderer, pedophile, or even missing elderly.

        I completely respect those who wish to exercise the right to refuse ID. Just don't take it so personal against LEO when we ask. I doubt you truly understand our intentions. We don't want to harass you, we just don't want to make a mistake that could have serious consequences.
        Well said. I'm looking for criminals, not law abiding citizens. MOST law abiding citizens have no problem providing proper identification. MOST CRIMINALS and wanted persons do.

          I’ve lived almost 60 years and never been asked to produce ID by a police officer outside of a few traffic stops.

          Of course, I’m not a criminal, so I probably wouldn’t have a problem if asked for my ID during the course of an investigation.

          I choose to believe that the police are one of the few institutions that keep our society from breaking down.

          Yeah, I’ll side with them over the rampant lawlessness that they have to combat.
          Thank you.

            I really don't think it's giving up my rights to show ID to a cop. They have enough crap going on I'll cooperate anyway I can to get them back on track to protecting my city.
            I've never been asked for ID unless I was being pulled over or involved in something illegal when I was younger. If a cop just walks up and asks for ID out of the blue while I'm standing at a gas pump or somthing I would ask why though in a nice way. If the answer makes sense heck yeah I'd give it to him/her. I would def be curious why they want it. Nothing wrong with asking questions in my book just use your noggin.

                      Collaborators is what the French called them.

                      My son is a LEO and deals with POS all day and night sometimes. He also knows when he pulls over someone, and the words they use when interacting will determine how aggressive he is with his stop. He has stopped folks to compliment their driving and patience. To give attaboys. Driving is a privilege, so you are bound by their rules. Standing on a corner and being asked for ID and where your going or coming from sounds a lot like Nazi Germany if you are not being detained and not suspected of a crime.
                      It the police world it is OK for them to lie to you to get info. LEO never mention that.

                        Not on this video, all BS talk after the fact. What really happened? I'm guessing that stupid attitude is what got things started.

Cops doing their job, idiot intentionally taking video hoping for a civil rights violation and trying to antagonize cops into a civil rights violation so he can make money. Same voice as the previous video you posted. "I want to do anything I can to **** off cops so they mess up and violate my rights so I can get rich".

                          You have lost all credibility. I've seen this and dealt with this many times in my career. IDIOTS are everywhere. Won't even look at your last post, bet it's the same idiot.

                            The new “texting and driving” law is also a citation only law.

                            If you issue a citation for speeding, the offender refuses to sign the ticket, and you do not arrest/magistrate them, it is because you are choosing not to do so.

                            Refusal to sign a speeding ticket gives the officer authority for a warrantless arrest.

                            Discretion applies, but refusal to sign the ticket is a pretty strong indicator that the court won’t be graced with their voluntary presence.

                              Hmmm.....not sure what side of the fence you are on. I hope your son doesn't stop people to compliment their driving, that's a civil rights violation in and of itself. No problem in me admitting that lying to obtain information is okay. Been there, done that. Courts say it is okay. Still not sure where you are coming from with this. Can't ever remember cops demanding info from folks standing on a corner. If dispatched due to some complaint we have to do our job, but........hmmmmmm

                                Most police officers know when they can and can't ID somebody. Out of curiosity though, have any of you just been minding your own business, doing nothing wrong, or not been on some sort of scene where law enforcement had been called and had an LEO come up and want to see your ID? Because from a LE standpoint I know in 16 years I've never ID'd anybody that wasn't a witness, suspect, violator or somebody directly related to a call I was on...
