Brought to you by my discovery that some people think that “the customer is always right” isn’t the slogan of a long-dead department store, but rather it’s an actual call the cops law.

I work in law enforcement and this is called "tinning" when you show your badge unnecessarily. My personal rule of thumb is if I'm dealing with you and you tin me then I am 100% giving you a ticket now.

I appreciate that there's a word for it.
