| Feb 25, 2017 at 23:43 | comment | added | Joe | I've edited the question to clarify and narrow it's scope. In it's current form I believe it's clearly on-topic per meta, related questions, and the help center: it's about "customs & border crossing, visas and other travel documents such as permits" and not about "issues related to immigration / expatriates". | |

Narrowed scope to exclude immigrants, clarified that the question covers one specific situation that may occur when travelling

| Feb 25, 2017 at 22:09 | comment | added | phoog | @chx should we go back and close all those other questions then? | |

| Feb 25, 2017 at 18:34 | comment | added | phoog | @chx and other close voters: I strenuously object to the idea that this is off topic. We have many questions about legal rights at fixed passport control checkpoints, customs checkpoints, and security checkpoints. Why should it be different if the question instead concerns a temporary checkpoint or other investigation? | |

| Feb 25, 2017 at 17:34 | comment | added | Joe | @chx from meta: "Customs and immigration laws that deal with travelers rather than immigrants would also be on topic." Anecdotally, it certainly seems like a lot of questions here ask about the legal nuances of customs, border, and immigration law and how to navigate the system. And my understanding is that just because a question is on-topic on one stack doesn't necessarily make it off-topic on another. | |
| Feb 25, 2017 at 17:31 | comment | added | user4188 | @phoog nothing of the sort. In this case I would want an opinion from a lawyer who is ready to fight for that opinion at the airport where I get jailed when the CBP/ICE is of a differing opinion. | |
| Feb 25, 2017 at 17:27 | comment | added | phoog | @chx or at Law. | |
| Feb 25, 2017 at 17:27 | comment | added | user4188 | I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because we are not lawyers. This we can not answer. You need to ask the ACLU. Are you ready to risk being jailed based on the ramblings of a few random strangers off the Internet?? | |
| Feb 25, 2017 at 17:04 | comment | added | David Richerby | @Dorothy Please don't post answers as comments. If you have the time to look up the precise section of US law that covers the situation, surely you have time to write it in the answer box with a little bit of formatting. | |
