Michael Rogers reports on Slashdot:
--------------------
"British police want to collect DNA samples from children as young as five who 'exhibit behavior indicating they may become criminals in later life'. A spokesman for the Association of Chief Police Officers argued that since some schools already take pupils' fingerprints, the collection and permanent storage of DNA samples was the logical next step. And of course, if anyone argues that branding naughty five-year-olds as lifelong criminals will stigmatize them, the proposed solution will be to take samples from all children.
--------------------
I wonder how soon they'll take DNA samples at every birth?

Wow is right! I don't even know what to say to this except it's outrageous! Love to hear the description of the "behavior" in question in 5 year olds.
