Sadly, there is a flaw in your argument in that you are not (I presume) a law enforcement officer/similar.
Law enforcement, DOD and other similar agencies are always going to have rights that normal citizens don't have.
Whether they should have the right to bombard you with ionizing radiation with your knowledge or permission is a good question, but you can't argue that it is wrong because ordinary citizens can't do this legally.

I'd nitpick here and say that there's a world of difference between rights and powers, whether those powers are legitimate or otherwise. They don't have the right to bombard us. They do have the power.
- dotBen 15y agoThat's fair enough I guess. I'm a non-citizen so the distinction between a right and a power is of little difference to me. A power can only be revoked by a citizen, and I'm not one.
