Lancaster was where a police officer was killed recently by a gang member. It is rife with MS 13 folks. They also have drug cartel members.

Isn’t the real issue that they can just access your personal information?
Privacy and control are huge problems with any kind of bio-security.
You control your passwords and accounts. You can change them any time to create new security.
You cannot change your bio-security attributes (fingerprint, eyes can, DNA, etc.).
Once they are compromised your identity is toast.
You think that the Constitution is worth the parchment it is written on & that you live in a Constitutional Republic were the the government actually cares about obeying the law & that the judiciary gives a rats rectal orifice about your rights . would be mistaken.

All you have to do is turn your phone off. if it is an iphone, you will need the fingerprint AND a password.
Hmm.....
I wonder at what age Patrick Henry decided to do illegal things? Or George Washington, Adams, Revere, etc.
I think our Founders expected to create a nation of moral people who didn't need a government designed to prevent the commission of crime through limitations on freedom.
The guys who wrote Brave New World and 1984 weren't wrong about the prospects of future tyranny. They just didn't get the dates right.
