    Is there not already precedent regarding passwords?

    The issue here is that a fingerprint is not a password.

    Fingerprints can be left behind in the same way that blood or hair or other fluids / matter can be left behind.

    The action of using a fingerprint is a totally different demand.

    I'm not sure it is. You can be forced to "use" your fingerprint now.

    I would love for you to find me one case where a person was compelled to use their fingerprint to unlock potential new discovery of evidence, as opposed to as a tool to tie a suspect to evidence they have already collected.

    edit: we have had simple biometrically locked laptops (which are crude in comparison to the new apple toy and much easier to break into) since the 90s - has there been a single case in 20 years?

    I can't find a case either way in re: existing fingerprint scanning on computers.

    As for cases where people are compelled to use their fingerprints to unlock new discovery, I will point you to ever case where getting arrested on a DUI turns up an armed robbery suspect. The State keeps a fingerprint database for a reason!

    I was at a barbeque and there was a kid (toddler? I think he was like, 2 and a half, I dunno what those age divisions are) who went out doors which I guess he was not supposed to do. I was nearest the door so I started kind of jogging after him like, hey, no, stahp, why are you running away babby, you're supposed to stay in. Meanwhile I was just kind of looking back at the other adults/parents trying to get clarification on like, if I'm supposed to pick this kid up and drag him back or like, try to reason with him.

    Children substantially compound my already bad enough social retardation.

    i think you are supposed to slide tackle them in that situation?

    This is correct.

    That's a different thing. They have a murder weapon or a gun used in a crime with a fingerprint on it. You get arrested and get your prints taken, and your prints tie you to evidence already collected in another case.

    They cannot force you to give them evidence without a court of law compelling them to do so, and even then I think because of the nature of it being a biometric password, you may not even have to do it then, citing the 5th.

    imagine they are an adult who really likes pokemon

    then talk to them

    This is exactly right. Kids will humor an adult who does a fake put-on with them and makes faces and censors themselves and feigns interest in the things they say. By man, if you talk with them earnestly, speak to them like a peer, listen to what they have to say, demonstrate actual knowledge of the things they like, and show emotions other than saccharine condescension, they will love you so hard and cling to your leg and try to make sure you cannot leave.
