You are required to surrender your fingerprints when you are arrested. It's not compelled speech because it's an identification marker, not a password. If you do have a runin with the police, just reboot your phone by holding down the power and home button for 10 seconds. Or, if you actually have something to hide, just don't use Touch ID.
