did they think he was stealing that trash?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77541764


Sometimes burglars and other criminals do things like that , to appear harmless while doing something illegal

For all this officer could have known, this guy could have been there casing the place

True, but we're not living in Nazi Germany. Cops just can't stop anyone at anytime for any reason and demand we show them our papers.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 52055181


Actually, in most states they CAN, legally

even if it's not legal, it's better to comply . Show your ID, explain yourself, then be on your way

Or, you can be one of those "I know my rights!" idiots and escalate things, then end up dying from a restraint hold or being tased.

the choice is yours
