How could the operator know if they were carrying legally? They could have been felons, that’s why the ID check

Have you ever heard of presumption of innocence? We don't have to prove we're obeying the law. They have to prove we're not. There was no probable cause here.

of cause there was a probable cause there. (the police has been called and there for it´s their duty to investigate the situation). btw. this has nothing to do with the “presumption of innocence”. it´s legitimate in this situation to check the ID. or do you think for example its not legitimate to check your drivers license when you run into a police controll? most people are “innocent” too but how should the police know as long as they haven´t checked it if you are allowed to drive a car for example.
