If the police come up and start frisking him without telling him anything, that would be illegal and highly suspect. However, the police are trained to follow Standard Operating Procedures. One of those is to ask for ID. NO MATTER WHAT THE STOP IS. If you are broke down on a bridge with your blinkers on, a cop will stop and ask if everything is alright. But you can bet your bottom dollar that the police officer will ask you for you ID before he or she leaves. It is SOP. Just like those punks on the Florida toll road last year. The police stopped them and instead of cooperating, they stonewalled. Fine. You want to play, we can play. Stay here until we get a court order to search your car. It will take several hours. You want to not show me ID? Fine, we can play that game too. Just tell the cop, hey, I'm a reporter for the ComPost, I see signs to report things which are suspicious. This looks suspicious and I was wondering what it is and who should I call. Cop - after checking out ID - says, Mr. Miloy, it is a such-and-such device. It checks the air-quality in case we are attacked. Also, cops don't do one-on-one. Think of it as a small version of what we do in war time. Massive firepower to intimidate.
