The smart thing to do is comply and file a complaint. The cop is not going to just shoot you.
You're willing to take that kind of chance with your life? There's a lot of people in lots of countries in the world with unsavory governments (that the one we have is slowly starting to more resemble in a few places) who if they were still alive would beg to differ.

If you comply then you might be arrested and put in jail, maybe a little beat up, nothing more.
We'll remind you to say that again when it's your wife that's happening to and see if we get the same.

I for one am concerned not only with rotten apples in general but those in places where lawfully armed citizens are rare and thus the temptation is great to take advantage of monopoly of force. Thankfully our country is seeing an increase in freedom at the moment but were the reverse to be true, and a change of political climate could make it so, it could be a serious problem to deal with. It already may be from time to time in some heavily populated areas with lock step judiciaries.
