Would YOU freely provide your US Passport on demand to an officer because he alone "thought" you "might" be a national within the boarders of the US illegally... and you have done nothing wrong?

I have no 'passport' since I have no DESIRE to go anywhere else.
I had to 'produce' a birth certificate to recieve that document. My wife had to produce her divorce papers, birth certificate and marrage license to get HER drivers licence. Not too tough. We had our 'papers' in order.
