I didn't say they couldn't come up to my door and ask questions.  I said they
had no ENFORCEABLE RIGHT to search or interview.  I, however, DO have an
enforceable right to demand they leave my property and not return unless and
until they have a warrant.  In this country the government does NOT have
rights, the people do.  

It's about damned time people started remembering that.
