My apologies, I misread some of the original story and just based my opinion on the headline. NHITSA was trying to do some study on how many drivers are impaired when they do not show symptoms enough for a sobriety test and wasn’t actually trying to expand the DNA database. I retract my statement. I am in favor of every American being forced to give a DNA sample then put into a database so that when a crime occurs and DNA evidence is left behind, we can figure out who did it, quickly. I am not a fan of stupid studies like the one referenced in the article and blame the people who designed the grant and not necessarily the cops who were told to implement it. Cops are employees just like any other profession, they do what they are told, they don’t make the rules. You wouldn’t blame the construction workers of a poorly designed building, they just built what the architect designed. The architect should bear the blame if the building collapses, not the drywaller.
