This is VERY alarming

Obtaining a DNA sample is all well and good if a crime has been committed. Taking positive action to obtain samples is nearly a police state... here.

What is really alarming is the attitude behind the following quote:

"It is part of a long-term crime prevention strategy. If you know you have had your DNA taken and it is on a database then you will think twice about committing burglary for a living."

This is both assumptive and presumptive. Potentially guilty until proven innocent. It is WRONG.
