"country takes my fingerprints at every opportunity"

One of the things about the US that horrifies Australians! And this is the important continent where critical parts of US Military spy stuff is hidden - even from Aussie citizens - the Aussie Govt has 'no right to even inspect the facilities'! The US No 1 pacific Ally!

Other horrors include frenetic 'hog tie' handcuffing by the Police at any excuse! What about that poor truck driver too? A while ago footage from a US program show a guy whose wife had thrown a hot frypan - probably fat, but could have just been hot water in his face. He was screaming in pain, but was hog tied. At least the cop was human enough to turn the hose on his face AFTER the mandatory hogtieing... what next, the execution after the fair trial?
