The cop might not be right and the Black man might be right, but wouldn't just showing ID and proof of who you are dispel any suspicion to the cop's claim and make you the winner?
Yes it would. The first half dozen or so times it happens.

But after the 10th or 12th time in a 2-3 month period, it gets annoying.

Imagine you get a new job, and every other day someone asks for your ID because they don't recognize you and assume you're not supposed to be there. It's ok for about a week or so. Eventually, you'll get to the point of "Seriously? I've been here for a month, you still don't know who I am?"

It's basically that, but you may get shot as a result. It's clich, but there are way too many cops that see a black man driving a nice car, not wearing a suit, and assume that car is either stolen or bought with money gained through nefarious means.
