[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 1373869, member: 13624"] Actually, you [I]can[/I] back out halfway through a police search. From Wikipedia, but properly referenced: The article goes on to discuss the ever-growing "transportation exception" to the Fourth Amendment. It's questionable whether Mr. Tyner would fall under [I]Herzbrun[/I] or [I]Pulido-Baquerizo[/I] rules, as they were both partway through the search ("after passing through the magnetometer" and "after an inconclusive X-ray," respectively); Mr. Tyner never started the search procedure as the TSA refused to let him go through the magnetometer, saying that his [I]only[/I] options were the invasive ones that he refused. Oh, and as to those of you who say "take a bus," I would suggest reading [url]http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/130549-next-step-for-body-scanners-could-be-trains-boats-and-the-metro-[/url]. To wit: So the right to travel freely is about to be limited to the right to an invasive search every time you travel. Oh, and don't forget your internal passport, comrade. [/QUOTE]
