I don't care if my DNA would be on a file or not.
I don't intend to break the law at anytime so same goes for CCTV i am not goner break the law so they can have as many cameras as they wish.
There is nothing around towns and cities where they are that i would be concerned of my actions.
Thanks very much, I'll be sure to leave your DNA around when I commit crimes!I don't intend to break the law at anytime so same goes for CCTV i am not goner break the law so they can have as many cameras as they wish.

Your comment did not enlighten me as to why your against it though?

You tell me how accurate it is and I'll tell you whether I want to be on there with 65,000,000 other Britons. Make sure your research is extensive and objective now. I don't want the standard 1 in 100 billion.
Well this is from a Forensic Scientist..http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2002-02/10147...
Apologies on my iPhone so can't copy the exact section.
In court the question "What are the odds of two people having the same DNA?" is asked to suggest we're all unique and the evidence is infallible. Ask what the chances of someone making a mistake, or a sample being contaminated are and you will no longer want your DNA on any database.

DNA.And how many people get away with rape,murder etc etc etc.
And in how many cases is usable DNA evidence found at the scene.DNA.And how many people get away with rape,murder etc etc etc.
Rape victim washes = DNA destroyed.
Real life example - I got stabbed by a chav. Totally random attack, blade went through my jacket, jumper, shirt & t-shirt (it was the middle of winter) Chav's hand probably touched the jacket.
Police took away all my clothing apart from my boxers, socks & shoes for forensics and took an elimination sample from me.
Zero DNA. As I was told later by the fiscal, "This isn't CSI - unfortunately there isn't a magic piece of evidence like you get on the TV"
Under Scots law, the elimination sample should have been destroyed - I'm not sure that happens under the current English system, so a move to Scots law in England should be an improvement.

Everyone should be on record IMO.. no reason to hide anything then?
Nice troll attempt..In my opinion, BEFORE the thread was started I had no problem with it.. And as such started a discussion on it.
With other points put across it seems its not such a good idea, and I now agree with most posts on here.
Now move along to another childish forum please.

As technology keeps moving forward at a very fast pace.
All those retna scanners,finger print scanners and other modes of identification it won't be long before there is a combination scanner as an iphone application.
Just think you could identify your house buglar with your iphone then find out where they live with another application and then go round and deliver your own iphone application on them.

Just did a bit of googling about retina scanners as I was interested as to whether the iphones camera had a high enough resolution. All those retna scanners,finger print scanners and other modes of identification it won't be long before there is a combination scanner as an iphone application.

"several academic institutions and biometric vendors are developing products that claim to be able to identify subjects at distances of up to 10 meters"
That's amazingly scary.

"Black police liason", it amazes me these sort of people continually reinforce the idea of segregated groups and them being "outsiders" or minorities and then are amazed that they treated as such.
There are crooks and there are coppers. Whether they're black or white should be irrelevent.
Still... I'm sure it keeps them in a cushy job knowing full well their bosses daren't say anything to them.

Why would it have to be in your area? If the DNA says you were in Outer Mongolia, that's where you were!
Haha. Then thats when DNA would be proven not to be 99.9% acurate.Say you robbed a bank in america and used my DNA and i was here working at that same time i would have had a strong alibi to prove it wasn't me then the whole DNA process would have to be looked at again and with that reasonable doubt could not be used in a court.

I'm sure you know what I'm getting at though. I'd question the value of using someones DNA to establish any phenotype like black skin then portraying people expressing that phenotype as a high % of criminals.
It's very Hitler-esque.
