Sadly, in our haste to be freedom loving we have lost the ability to actually study the law. Your post is the best example from the 5 or 6 criticizing my statement.

Lay persons think that it is the order from LE that has to be lawful. Not so. It is the lawfulness of the LEO that determines whether a citizen has to comply.

Let me see if this will help. If a police officer is properly sworn in, on duty in the jurisdiction of his employment, directing traffic, he is acting lawfully. And, if he instructs you to drive over the double yellow line (which is illegal) or turn off your headlights, or step out of the car leaving it on the highway in a lane of traffic, he is giving you a “lawful order.” Now, his orders may turn out to be wrong later, but it is not the substance of the order that a citizen may test. It is the authority of the office to give the order.

OK, all cleared up folks?

Absolutely! It's all cleared up! So, if the lawfully sworn in and in his jurisdiction, his Lawfullness allows him to tell you to commit lawless acts.

Therefore if he orders you to take a firearm and kill someone, it's perfectly lawful. If he orders you to rape a young girl, it's perfectly lawful.

All cleared up now!
