Well, Lep, you're not gonna have this old hippie to kick around on this one. Someone's gonna have to explain to me why I should have a problem with this. Like Forum Lurker, I don't really see the difference between taking a DNA sample and taking a fingerprint. I mean it's not like they're performing an invasive medical procedure to get the stuff. Nobody's even getting their finger pricked. You swab the inside of your own cheek and hand the swab to a technician. And they're only doing it with people accused of a handful of the most serious violent crimes, not every kid that gets popped for joy-riding or smoking a joint in the park.

And Virginia cops can't be any worse than Kentucky cops!
