After reading this I was pretty worked up. Feds to collect DNA from every person they arrest. They plan to take and store DNA from every arrest, not just a conviction. If you're tried and found guilty, sure store the convict's DNA. but what if the police officer makes a mistake, and you're never even tried. Now you have to spend your energy and probably money for lawyers to get your DNA removed from CODIS database. I have no confidence in the gov't being able to protect and secure that much information. Not to mention pay someone to keep up with all the unnecessary entries. I know how gov't contract rates are padded like crazy and to me it's a waste of money and a very unnecessary risk for people that will undoubtedly be falsely accused.
