they have the right to do this. If someone knows differently, I’d appreciate a reply.

Yeah, I've heard Government agents do not have a "right" to do their job. They are delegated authority and derive power from the just consent of the people who formed the government. We are the people in "we the people", and taking up employment as a government agent means you have relinquished some rights voluntarily, especially in case where it would conflict with the limits of the delegated authority.

Apparently Just an opinion...

You left out the full context of my posted ‘quote’ and made it appear that I was stating ‘they do have the right’. I didn’t state that, but was asking a question regarding another person’s quote.
