If you are being detained without reason, you are then suffering from

I disagree with that. If the cop is violating someones rights without
probable cause then the victim should point out that the cop is
commiting a criminal act.
Point it out to whom? The cop perpetrating the act? Hardly...
you're absolutely right about complying with the cops directions but
think it's wrong not to say something.
Again, to whom?
Are you going to ask the cop his badge number and write it down in front
of him?
If you're blessed with good eyesight, and you can both see the number
and remember it, then you're faced with another dilemma.
Who's the right person in the department to tell?
Hey! I totally agree with you, but...
