I voted against it also, for the very reasons you state. If someone is idicted for a crime they can already get their DNA from them with a court order, just as they can get a search warrent. I do not think you should have to submit to DNA testing if you are simply arrested and then later released. Enough with the government in our lives already.

Damnit, comrad, don't you understand we need this to get past that pesky 4th amendment? [/soviet]

Something tells me that most people have never read through the Soviet constitution. It reads an aweful lot like our's. The difference has always been in the reality of how things work. Those cheering for this are convinced that this government could never possibly be perverted into a Nazis or Soviet style regime. They're wrong. Those who choose not to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
