Warwick Police check the identification of every person they contact (it's also a standard for accredited departments like WPD), and this is a perfect example of WHY.
Failure to identify yourself is also a consideration for arrest in RI; in many cases, not providing an ID is considered suspicious behavior in and of itself (for example, having and evading a warrant for one's arrest)...Catch-22. An individual can be "temporarily" detained, which MAY last until you identify yourself- the only question is how much free time you have on your hands.
There's an easy way and a hard way, but it's always MY way.
It sounds like you prefer to have people with active warrants walking your city streets, potentially being a threat to other citizens, you and/or your loved ones...is there something fundamentally wrong with you? Are you suggesting that police should wait until a crime has been committed, or is ABOUT to be? Do you believe that they're psychic, as well?
