No one has yet made a convincing argument of how this is any more onerous then being fingerprinted at arrest.

One is a form of identification, the other is a blantant violation of a person's civil liberties.

 

It continues to amazes me how many are so up in arms that the government dare attempt to infringe on their right to bear arms, but don't seem to care when the most basic of our civil liberties are violated.

They say it is okay to insert something into an orifice, putting my finger in ink is a little different.

 

 

 

Are they permitted to take a swab from anywhere or did they define only certain places?

Honestly, I don't see how it is any more than another form of identification.

Me either, for those that can't stand the thought of a q-tip in their cheek how about a couple of strands of hair? Would that be invasive too? How about a small piece of finger nail or what if they just asked you to spit in a cup? There are many ways to get DNA without going into one of your orifices.

You're going to have to explain that one because I'm still not seeing it.

Someone check...I think hell has frozen over. I agree with All Tell and Jumper Dad. :D

 

There's a huge difference there. You have chosen to work there. That would be the same with me giving the ok to nationwide drug testing because my employer requires it.

 

You can choose NOT to commit a crime. :D

There is hope for you yet RM!!!

You haven't committed a crime yet. You've only arrested! BIG difference in this country. :D

So they shouldn't fingerprint people at arrest?
