Same reasoning applies to one's wallet, the contents of one's financial accounts, and one's wife and children. Might as well drop trou, bend over and spread legs, too. It's not like that would actually kill, maim or cripple you, after all. The point is whether you have the right to Liberty--which is the right to do whatever does not violate the rights of others--or whether you are a slave to the State, and subject to its whims. That's the issue here. Whether providing one's ID is the most minor of incoveniences, does no harm, and would help the police do a better job is not the relevant question.
That's so 20th Century of you. I see some indoctrination is in order. Please report to your local Committee Officer to get your mind right. Blackbird.

That's so 20th Century of you. Actually, that's so 'late 18th Century' of me :-)
