She glared and told me she had the right to do this.
(to flip through the pp, not to glare
)
As posters in this thread seem knowledgeable, is there anything
I can print out that verifies TSA does NOT have the right to do this?
I did not press the issue verbally, but would have if I had some printout
of rules/regs. etc. to contradict them with.
Several reasons actually. To insure that it is indeed a valid document (not fraudulent), and that it has not been tampered with or altered in an attempt to misrepresent who the actual owner of the document is.
I hope that helps.
