And what point is that? You prefer the thugs run free without
question?
I'm
glad our country doesn't meet with your approval.

I prefer *citizens* run free.


Asking an honest citizen, in a questionable situation, for simple
indentification, has little if nothing to do with freedom. If you are
willing to give your name and birthday, most are easily satisfied,
regardless of laws requiring actual physical ID.

I'm not willing to give my birthday.


May or may not be used or helpful in Canada, and unnecessary in the US if
you have a physical ID. Here it's just a unversal way to check someone for
warrents, valid drivers license, etc. Many officers will accept it here if
you don't have your DL with you during a traffic stop, thanks to
computerized record keeping.
