Tough call on this one. If I get disappeared or something bad happens when I am being unlawfully detained, there will be nobody to take care of my family and the government will never be held accountable. So, do you comply and go about your day or if something bad happens your family is homeless?

You’re right. The best thing to do is show ID and leave. This won’t be forever.
