Like I said, the guy was an ass - which is why he got the treatment he did. It looked to me like the deputy was actually fairly calm and patient with the guy. For the deputy to arrest someone for the singular reason of failing to provide identification on the spot is another matter, which is where he was wrong. While I'm sure constitutional matters were not on the deputy's mind at the time, the fact that he did it means there is a legal decision and precedent to be set based on the arrest.
