[quote=CA renter]I’m adamantly anti-crime and anti-criminal, and totally understand the desire to have the DNA samples of violent criminals in a database, but I have a serious problem with law-abiding people (a classification that, in itself, is not entirely well-defined and can change too easily if the wrong people get into power) being subjected to tests and procedures that make it easier for the government to track them in any way.[/quote]
Herein lies the problem, there are more first time offenders than repeat offenders. There are more first time child molesters or murderers than 3rd timers, so when do we take someone’s DNA, only after they’ve killed someone? Every rapist has a first time but far less have a 10th, it’s pure math. Don’t take this as an insult or an attack, but read closely, what you meant to say is that you want to be protected from them, but don’t want to be bothered yourself. “Watch them but not me.” Well it doesn’t work that way, you can’t get half pregnant. And don’t worry, they (the government) have far too few people to worry about you, they can barely keep up with the evil folks out there.
I’ll submit my every move, my moves aren’t that interesting, I’m guessing yours aren’t either. If the NSA is watching me right now, I’ll save them the trouble, I’m going to go to espn.com next and check some scores. After that I might go to a porn site and look at some women with a little extra meat on their bones doing some fairly interesting things, then off to bed. In the morning I’m going to have coffee and metamucil, then a really good bowel movement before getting a haircut and then back for some college football. I’m sure they’ve had a few briefings regarding whose going to watch me doing what, I pity the guy that gets the bowel movement detail, my Saturday post coffee/metamucil movements are epic.
