DNA should be taken from babies (to fight crime) by DesertRat662006-12-13 10:23:58
  I like the honesty by varikin2006-12-13 10:47:00
    Shouldn't even be up for discussion IMO by DesertRat662006-12-13 10:51:01
      *blinks* by subbywan2006-12-13 10:53:00
        How about by DesertRat662006-12-13 10:55:26
          They already ID you at birth. by subbywan2006-12-13 10:57:48
            Not always by DesertRat662006-12-13 10:59:38
              But it's still fairly common, even if not by subbywan2006-12-13 11:01:49
                Just because something has some benefits by DesertRat662006-12-13 11:19:28
                  But just because it *MAY* have bad by subbywan2006-12-13 11:21:47
                    But I see it as the reverse... by jdelphiki2006-12-13 12:06:38
                      No, it doesn't hinder us at all. by subbywan2006-12-13 12:12:44
                        At what cost? by jdelphiki2006-12-13 12:26:46
                          Why does it have to be ONLY for criminals? by subbywan2006-12-13 12:37:54
                            None of the items you listed... by jdelphiki 2006-12-13 13:28:12
...are as personal, nor as easily corrupted, as one's DNA. Simply put, why should my government keep track of it? And who's to stop them from deciding it's equally expedient to start using the collected DNA profiles in a medically scary way?

I guess I have to ask...how much of your identity and/or freedom are you willing to give up to achieve faster and more certain crime resolution?

I personally begrudge every bit of privacy I have to surrender as a concession to criminal activity. Why should criminals have to steal (pardon the pun) so much from law abiding citizens?

                              That ones easy: by subbywan2006-12-13 13:38:31
                                DNA can already be used... by jdelphiki2006-12-13 15:08:06
                                I see more good things that can come of it by subbywan2006-12-13 15:17:10
