Nice weasel out!
Isn't that what everyone suggested to the OP and where you lied and scared them sh!tless with psychiatrically paranoid rant that they are "giving up their rights"?
You can now raise your pants backup and pretend nothing happened.
Actually you can continue on like this guy did. :B
This inspector and the LEO are weak and have a hint that they will be walked over like a doormat by the RV owner.
He should have taken lessons from Jimmy Malone, that cop played by Sean Connery in The Untochables.
Not quite Jim Malone’s “He pulls a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue!” More like, you make my life miserable, I’ll return the favor – and more.
I imagine this is how Jim would have handled this.
Jim Malone: May I inspect your RV for fruits, insect and parasites, sir?
Aboy: No, unless you can show me a warrant and probable cause.
Jim Malone: I don’t need a warrant, this is not a search for evidence. This is an administrative inspection. My probable cause is that you passed and came from states with confirmed pests and parasite infestation.
Aboy: But I consider my RV my home.
Jim Malone: Yes, you can consider it a home or whatever you might want to call it, but the law classify it as vehicle of conveyance and ruled by Supreme Court to be covered by vehicle exemption not requiring search warrant for administrative inspection.
But you have an option to turn-around from where you came from if you don’t want an inspection.
Aboy: Why? I am an American citizen and have the right to travel whenever I want in any state.
Jim Malone: Yes, you have the right to travel, but your vehicles do not have the same rights and, again, I have the duty of administrative inspection over your vehicles before you are allowed to enter the state.
Aboy: Well, you don’t have the right of seizure of my personal properties.
Jim Malone: It’s not a seizure nor sequestration of your properties, the state has the authority of quarantine right at this station should you both decide to proceed to California without me honoring my duty to inspect the inside of your RV. I can see you have a phone so you can call an Uber should you decide to proceed and cross into the stateline?
Aboy: Okay, okay…
Jim Malone: Not so fast sir. I am an expert on parasite and noticed that your female companion has crabs infestation in her eyebrow and eye lashes, so I have to quarantine her too for total body disinfection.
And you should leave your number and contact address. If your female companion happens to have a Las Vegas, Nevada address and yours is Arizona, we have probable cause to suspect that you are engaging in cross-state human trafficking for prostitution which is prohibited by federal law and that prostitution is illegal in California.
This is a joke and no reason for the snowflakes and the paranoid to twist their underwear in a fit of rage.:B
