I don't remember that, but I suspect that it wasn't all law enforcement... Used sparingly and appropriately, it's perhaps a valuable tool. Overused, it's going to court. I believe that's how I'd think about it if I was a LEO.

An officer can you ask you for anything at any time. It's going to be up to you to determine if he's demanding ID or simply asking for ID.
Personally, until this gets sorted out in some courtroom - which is where it's inevitably going - I'm going to provide the ID if I ran into that circumstance. The [pre-paid legal] perspective is useful and actually a bit surprising to me, although I don't agree with it, it's enlightening to see a basis for requiring ID and obviously something that I don't want to pay the legal fees associating with being the test case.
