[QUOTE="Rich Stern, post: 731232, member: 52580"] TJR, keep in mind that the Bill of Rights describes your relationship with the government, not with a retailer. You can sign an agreement with another private party and agree to wave certain privacy and property rights. If, at the time of checkout, you fail to live up to your end, you are in breech of contract. The other party does not have the authority to compel you to comply with the contract. That's a matter for the state to address in a civil court, if it comes to that. The store can simply decide they no longer want to have a relationship with you as a customer and ask you to leave, and in that action, they are entitled to have the force of law back them up (tresspass statutes). If they can't provide the police with reasonable suspicion of a theft, that's pretty much the only remedy they can pursue in the present tense. [/QUOTE]
