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
                          "a huge intrusion on the rights and freedoms"? by Khaar2006-12-13 12:33:47
                            I explained... by jdelphiki2006-12-13 13:22:15
                              so then you're not against them having it, by subbywan2006-12-13 13:28:05
                                I'm quite against them having it... by jdelphiki2006-12-13 13:38:30
                                That's your responsibility. by subbywan2006-12-13 13:40:08
                                If such abuses were overt... by jdelphiki 2006-12-13 13:45:17
...and on a large scale, it would be easy to vote out the offending parties. But the principle on which I base my concerns here is that freedoms are chipped away a little at a time, often under the pretense of resolving some other problem.

It's a lot harder to take back our DNA from the government once we've given it up. The safest way to avoid these things is to be vigilant about our freedoms. That might mean doing exactly what you said, voting out the bums who are trying to implement things we don't agree with. But I'd prefer to do it before they legislated something like a DNA db onto us.

                                See, I have no problem with a DNA DB. by subbywan2006-12-13 13:47:39
                                On such a large scale process... by jdelphiki2006-12-13 15:21:50
                                I see it just the other way around. by subbywan2006-12-13 15:31:42
